Can't say that I've even had bad snapper.  And I do like scamp too.  Forgot about that one.

It's funny about this thread because me and my coffee crew, while solving the world's problems this morning, got on the subject of good fish/bad fish.  Most said snapper can be too strong but when it's right...Oh well, I guess it can happen with any fish.  Last summer when I caught some snapper, I put it on the grill that night and it was incredible.  The wife still says, remember that fish you grilled last summer? 

The summer before, we did well catching several big King Mackeral.  I did those several different ways...grilled, fish tacos and a Po-Boy style sammich.  Solid.

My doctor told me I needed to stop masturbating.  I asked him why, and he said, "because I'm trying to examine you."

Look, I know some people are against doctors but don't you think pan-frying them is a little over the top?

Damn, I'm jealous!  Do you have a boat that you're fishing from?  I'm willing to trade guide services.  A guided weekend on Guntersville in the fall when the largemouths are busting through the grass to inhale frogs for some snapper and mackerel.

Whoa....you definitely have street cred.  Nice fish.  No boat.  As far as salt water, I take a charter a couple of times a summer that puts in at Grayton Beach.  You can't call it real fishing since he goes to his spots, you let the line drop and instant limit.  We catch whatever the limit is at that time and then troll for mackarel, mahi anything.  Still a ton of fun.

Fresh, a lot of my family members and my buddy have boats so I pretty much mooch off them for pan fishing.  I'll buy the bait and beer.  I've never done much bass fishing so I definitely bow to your awesomeness with those big bastages.

House-Autrey Seafood Breading for the fish. It is light and tasty. If you like it a little spicy, get their medium hot breading.

Grouper is excellent fried. Snapper has to be in smaller chunks else you get a little stronger fish flavor.


I have a neighbor who goes to Destin a lot to fish. They bring back excess fish all of the time. It's not as much fun, but a helluva lot cheaper.

Five statements of WISDOM
1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity, by legislating the wealth out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.
5. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friends, is the beginning of the end of any nation.

That's awesome, the only trout I have ever caught have been pond stocked.  I'm guessing catching them on a wild river is a little more exciting than catching them on a pond using canned corn kernels for bait.

I've heard some good things about House-Autrey but I have not cooked with it before.  Thanks for the advice CCT.

That's possible I guess.  I've read where it's been introduced there, and there's a fear it will eventually find it's way in to the Everglades.
I actually don't know if tilapia are down there to any great extent, but I suspect that it could survive based on what I've read.  When I was a yute, we would purchase various shit-fish (mullet, pilchards, etc) as well as shrimp for bait on the way down to the Keys or wherever we were going fishing.  Of course, it always depended on what type of fishing we were planning; deep sea, trolling, shoreline, canals, bridge, etc...  Tilapia and other garbage "farm raised" fish were frequently a part of the shit fish available.  It was cheap...  Very cheap. 

But, I really can't believe that people are actually eating mullet and amberjack nowadays.  Catfish is bad enough, but mullet is even worse.  I've actually tried amberjack, now that people are eating it, and I have to admit that it isn't too bad.  I wouldn't go out of my way to order it, and I'd still probably avoid it most of the time.  It's just not very good. 

I think it's been said...  IMO, the best fish include snapper followed closely by grouper and dolphin (aka Mahi-mahi for the PC fags).  There are several others that fit into this group as well.  As far as the "fishy" taste that people have complained about, fish needs to be fresh and properly cleaned.  In some cases, the older, larger fish can have a "fishy" taste, but they'll typically be 40+ pounds for that to occur.  And, don't get me started on manatee steaks...  There's NOTHING better!

dolphin (aka Mahi-mahi for the PC fags). 

If you would say what it really is, they wouldn't be able to get all PC fag on you. Its a dolphinfish, not a dolphin. Facts hurt them little PETA queers.

Most heterosexuals don't refer to it as dolphinfish.  Many will call it pompano, dorado or blue dolphin, but dolphin is acceptable.

Just another common confusion...  Normally, you have to clarify for some of these overlapping names. 

Years ago, we were sharing stories about our past fishing trips.  Up came the subject of our dolphin adventures...  Some of the women in the group were horrified to hear our discussions.  They were halfway expecting us to be telling stories of reaching over the side of the boat to pet some bottlenose bait thieves...  One of the betas in the bunch had to clarify for the bimbos.  Ruined my entertainment...
