Catch O' The Day

[jaguarr]

I love fish. It's absolutely delicious. And by God it's good for you, too. I eat fish quite often, as a matter of fact, and I know there are lots of you out there who do as well. This thread is for us. The fish lovers. Discuss your favorite kinds of fish, here. Share that awesome new red snapper recipe you just tried. Or just tell us about the last time you ate some fish.

To get things started, I'll tell today's fish stories from my side of the computer. I had a can of Chicken Of The Sea chunk light tuna in water this afternoon. Right out of the can. Amazing. Chicken Of The Sea really is the chunkiest of all the national brands. It's like they put slabs of tuna steak right in the can, rather than just a bunch of puree'd fish parts like some of the other ones (Bumblebee and Starkist, I'm looking at you). I probably eat 1-2 cans of tuna a day, actually, just because it's such a great snack.

For dinner, I'm cooking a nice tilapia fiiet in the oven right now. Just a bit of garlic salt, a little Adobo, some fresh lime and some seasoned bread crumbs. Perfection. It was a toss-up between the tilapia and the salmon, but I wanted something a little lighter tonight and salmon can sit pretty heavy on the stomach.

Alright, fish lovers. Let's hear your stories.

I only have a real appreciation for smoked fish.

I only have a real appreciation for smoked fish.

I have no appreciation for fish that smoke, personally. It's a disgusting habit.

And now, give it up for Kevin Eubanks and the Tonight Show Band!

That's a problem.

CUckoo!...CUckoo!

My last girlfriend used to cook me all manner of seafoods. Current one just expects me to eat-out all the time.
I know I'd be a good cook, but I have no interest in actually doing it.

The whole "spend 45 minutes dicing this and sauteeing that and letting this "rest" and carmelizing the onions and waiting for the "little wisps of smoke" and being careful that you don't dry out the glaze and watching for the color changes" ?,.......and then, when it's done, you both scarf it down like hogs in 4 or 5 minutes? f*** that.

Anyway, I dig the "insects" of the sea (shrimp, lobster, crab) more than the expressionless fish.
I'm quicker to eat a can-full of oysters than a trout. I like that harsh, bitter, interesting, weird crap.......calamari? s***-yeah. I was disappointed by turtle soup 'cause it was pretty much just salt-broth.

But really, no artifice involved, I probably have a fish taco 3 times a week. What do they call that meat?..."White Fish", or something?..."Alaskan Taco Fish"?...whatever.

Shrimp scare the hell out of me. They are my only true fear. Well...That and Paris Hilton.

I can't wrap my head around how gay you are jag.

 

[Batty for Bats!]

I grew up with all my friends fishing. Everybody did it. But We were too poor to buy a boat or rods or any of that **** so I never experienced it. Poor people make me sick.

Mermaids are delicious.

Eh... I basically hate fish. The only fish I eat is Tuna... good stuff. Other than that, no thanks.

I love shrimp. I also like lobster,but it gives me diarrhea. Whiting is good. I'm pretty much over salmon. Oysters taste weird,but their not bad. Calamari is sexy.

My brother threw a dead octopus on me when I was 11.
I love tuna, hate salmon (it's squishy). I like dry white fish with no skin.
