Legend has it, that Paul was workin as a line chef for the Brenans(New Orleans food family) When he messed up and dropped a seasoned fillet into a very hot black iron frying pan. Filled the kitchen with smoke, and scared every body, first instinct he snatched it off the heat and flipped it in the pan trying to save the fillet. But it was blackened on both sides. Being the chubby Cajun he was he couldn't help but trying a piece fo it on the way to trash can. The rest is history. Blackened red fish almost wiped out the gulf coast fishery. We are lucky with a limit of 5 both texas and florida can only catch 2.
