Very cool fish and pics
:cheers1:

You have mastered something I have neglected. Do you do apprenticeships?
Love the post. Congrats!

That ain't no trash......



Damn nice Sheep.

:D

Those guys always looked pissed off.

Mmmmmmmm...........taaaassteeeee!!!!!

Bottom fishing is the shiznit, more so on light action gear.

Nice fishes. Kinda tasty looking.

Way to go! Thx for sharing and the fish porn. Wish there were sheepheads up here in norcal... so tasty. you can catch them sometimes in Bis Sur and south, but..

anyway, looks like good eatin!

Your bottom fishing results are uncanny. You'd think you were fishing points north of Morro Bay. Congrats.

Damn good job.... everytime I go out targeting bottom fish I end up with several fish about 4-6 inches long :)

Highly enjoyed your bucket.

Cheers,:cheers1:

That's some good photos right there...great job!

x2........thanks for sharing your photos:D

Sheep
 

Larry,

Ive heard for years how good Sheeps are, yet the last time I actaully ate one or tried to it was horrid! Perhaps its the water up here, perhaps I got sloppy in filleting and knicked the bile duct and spoiled it. I dont know...

Do they really taste that good?

ps enjoy your posts....

i am not sure how you prepare your fish for eating but in asian restaurants if you purchased a sheephead that size, EASY $100. they normally will steam the fish with garlic and green onions with some sesame oil and some other goodies. it is REALLY good.

Trash Fish??? :hmmmm: Rockfishin' is awsome only wish I could do more!!! NIce red!

Way to go!

@full-rac: Maybe you got it backward, actually my 'trash fish' reference
could be the taste of cooked yellowtail, compared to flaky white vermillion
or lingcod.

Yellows I'd rather not even catch them, however, other men TREASURE
them. And, that's OK, more 'flaky-white' fillets for us.

:cheers1:

P.S. When I want sushi, I fillet up a huge spanish mack or greenback -
but NO WAY will I give up the gps location of where I catch THOSE little
treasures. : )
:rolleyes:

Agree on the spanish, but not the greenbacks.

Spanish Mack sashimi sells for $17 per mackeral at Sushi Ota.

Yes.

Very soft and flaky, you can't fillet and fry them like you do for rockfish.

Tagyak is right. They need to be steamed gently.
