Ling cod , fried in our own deep fryer and panko mix. We also cook most of our salmon the same way. Its really moist that way. And we dont buy the panko brand of breading. If you go to wincos bulk food section they have unflavored breading for 1/10 the price of the panko in box. You could fill a gallon bag for the same price as a panko box. This way you can flavor it you self with what ever you want. Garlic and herb, tex mex, Italian, bbq . what ever you want.

No matter how you try to sell it, or buy it, you're still paying good money for really stale bread!

It's hard to beat sockeye salmon. You don't even really have to do anything to it but cook it for it to come out great. I'm not sure what my favorite is....lings, halibut, all rockfish, p-cod, chinook, and coho are all excellent table fare. Spot shrimp and crabs? Yummy! Pinks and chums....not a huge fan....I definitely like all of them better when cooked by somebody else!

I will forever preach the gospel of grilled halibut heads.


1. Split them, remove gills and give a good rinse/scrub

2. Marinate (whatever you're into - I like a soy/mirin/citrus mix)

3. Grill until crispy with a bit of char


There's a surprising amount of meat in a halibut head (even apart from the well-known cheeks), and sufficient fat and bone to keep everything from drying out, even with a thorough grilling. End result is moist, buttery halibut with crispy exterior not far off chicken wings.

I seriously contemplate raiding the dock discard bin for heads - they're that good.

Not a meal for those who like to keep their hands clean. Maybe not a first date dish.

Any fish cooked on a grill on the back of my C-Dory with in a half hour of catching it! And yes lets hope the border restrictions end soon, I would love to get back to Friday Harbour.

I agree with Harney, salmon cooked any way. Us SoCal captives have to go to Costco for our salmon.

Gulf of Mexico grouper.
Even better if you can find it, 'scamp' Gulf grouper from Perdidio Seafood on the GICW at the Perdido bridge.

Your table will thank you for it.

It's all good here. I have been called much worse and still living to tell about it.

Have a gold one.

I'm a pretty good filleter, but there's almost always something left on the backbone. And if you have a bad cut, no biggy. Any salmon will do but the first chinook of the year is always the best. These are sockeye.

You can't beat sockeye for the table, but I'm more likely to catch a sculpin. All I can say is that it will sustain life.
