I am kind of limited as to what I have had (as I am limited in what I catch) but, I found triggerfish to be very tasty and really like grilled mahi. Hard to beat a good fried flounder fillet.

Wang,

Fish I know how to cook. Tell us more about these bacon, ranch, cheddar potatoes.

Bowfin Bass out of moving water, scaled, cut into chunks and fried in heavily salted/ peppered corn meal. (really)

Insert pretty much every fish that swims except mother=in=laws.

After that you work your way up to some Mako, buttered, fresh dill, salt and pepper and lightly grilled.

I second that! Good grief those look good.

winter trout fried

the wife makes them, basically oven roasted topped with that stuff… but quicker than baking whole potatoes.

cut up potatoes, toss in olive oil, salt and pepper, put in greased baking dish at 425 for about 30-45 depending on size of chunks. when they start to brown, remove from oven and top with ranch sauce, then shredded cheddar, then crumbled bacon, put back in oven until cheese melts/browns… i burned my tongue last time we made them, couldn’t wait long enough :stuck_out_tongue:

btw, i grilled the fillets from an 18" trout last night and boy was it hard to keep them from falling apart, even with the skin on. fried is definitely the way to go with them!

Get a fish grill basket for thin fish. Only way to go

Wang,

Excuse me for all the questions, but I have these taters on my Sunday menu already…ha ha…When you ranch sauce, you just mean ranch salad dressing I would assume??

That, in and of itself, makes you at least a pretty good cook.

Normally, I would think putting garlic twice would be a typo, in this case I doubt it. That sounds amazing!

sorry i’m a day late here, redstripe… yes, just ranch dressing from the bottle. i suppose you could shake on the dry ranch mix too, depending on preferences.

hope you gave it a shot and enjoyed it!

as for the grill basket, i must’ve owned a dozen and still don’t use one. i do like them for veggies… especially the type you can vary the height of the “top” to actually put pressure on the contents so they can’t move around, but for fish i just oil the grill grate heavily and coat the fish too, if the fillets are thin i don’t even flip them… just leave them skin down till done. sometimes removal just requires some finesse!
