Offshore:
On an overnight charter to the Washington Canyon fishing aboard the Shammy produced with 4 yellowfin tuna in the 40-50 pound range, one wahoo 32 pounds, 1 dolphin, and a 5 foot hamerhead shark.
Off the surf kingfish made a comeback with one angler having 5 keepers mixed in with the blues. The wind have switched up a bit. Kingfish are a favorite eating fish among locals here. Tonight we had some kingfish mixed in with some of the smaller blues cooked blackened.
BLACKENED FISH
1 1/2 lb. firm-fleshed fish fillets
1/4 c. flour
3 tbsp. butter
3 tbsp. cooking oil
1 tbsp. blackened fish seasoning or Creole seasoning
Dust the fillets with flour. Heat the butter and oil in a large, heavy frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the flour-covered fillets and cook 3 minutes on one side, turn, and sprinkle seasonings evenly over the browned side. Cook another 3 minutes and turn, sprinkling this side with seasonings. Turn the heat to high and sear each side for about 2 minutes. Serve immediately. Enjoy...
