    In AUS most people tend to smoke (hot or cold) their Tailor (bluefish) as we don’t tend to get the same number of gator size blues. Most you run into are that school size for most the country. Definitely way more enjoyable prepped in the smoker.
    Ribbon fish and hair tail however are extremely prized table fair but I’ve never had the chance to fish for them or try.
    Anyway as always great vid Elias, love seeing you on the micro and slow pitch jigs.

    I love bluefish. Fillet and skin, remove dark meat, mix up 1 cup mayo + 3 TBSP lemon juice + 1 tsp minced garlic, layer mayo mixture on foil, lay fillet on foil, more mayo mixture on top, wrap up tight and grill. When foil puffs, it is done.

    BlueFish. I absolutely love them. NEVER skin on. Put a generous coating of mayo on top of filet. Put in foil pouch and place in hot grill or oven. I prefer charcoal or my pellet grill. Open the pouch half way through cooking to let some smoke get to it. I think you'll enjoy bluefish more. Also bloodline isn't really that bad when the fish is very fresh. That goes for any fish bloodline.

    Bluefish. Fresh caught that day only. Scale, Fillet, soak in water for about 30 min. Seafood breader or yellow corn meal. Fry skin on. Just eat meat and discard skin and bloodline. Bluefish have a strong fish taste but it is delicious. If eating other milder fish at same meal the eat blue last or else you wont taste the other fish. Bluefish get mushy if you keep a day or more on ice.

    That's an excellent size Blue to eat. I will keep and eat them from about 18-25". Can cook skin on or filleted. A little lemon/mayo/garlic concoction helps jazz it up and knock down any fishiness. Generally Blues that size are not very strong at all. Great fight on lite tackle and a good eat.

  • @popnshots9139
    @popnshots9139 Рік тому

    FYI.. Th ere is a flounder season happening in NC right now 9/1 - 9/15. Because of the late decision by the NC DMF (oversees coastal fishing), the NC WRC (oversees inland and joint water) didn’t have time to update their rules. Therefore, if you have spots for flounder that are within the inland/joint waters you are allowed to keep 4 flounder per person per day 9/1-9/15. Then the coastal flounder fishing starts on 9/15 with 1 flounder per person per day through 9/30. It’s nuts! I do suggest you find a launch / landing within the designated areas, as to not cross lines into the opposite sectors, to ensure you stay ticket free.

    Bluefish and Ribbonfish , both with skin off , rolling up the ribbonfish is a good idea. I usually wrap a piece of bacon around the bluefish and you can do the same with ribbon fish. Both excellent baked and wrapped in bacon. Not to much bacon , just one piece on ribbon fish that size , few piece on each piece of bluefish. Nice catch btw

  • @timberwolfe338
    @timberwolfe338 Рік тому

    Yes. Cook em fast with the skin on, use a 1hr soy sauce marinade, (with or without brining em for 1 hr).
    Pan-fry/broil/grill em fast with plenty of oil to prevent sticking.
    Your goal is to let the meat juuuusst set when white, and crisp the skin.
    All the marinade gets fried into the crispy skin, and the flesh is soft, white, and complimentary over rice.

It was crazy windy and trolling and casting weren't working so I hid in the lee of an island and worked a shoal running off the point and BINGO! 3 nice pike in a row!!

    If you want to try another way to cook with bluefish, here's a thing I like to do. Smaller blues (2 - 2.5 lbs max) bleed them out, filet and skin, very lightly salt, bake until cooked well through, then mash them up and use them like you would canned tuna to make tuna salad, but instead its bluefish salad.

    The varied diet of bonnethead sharks includes crabs, shrimps, bivalves, snails, and some small bony fishes; however, they are also known to eat seagrasses. This menu of primarily hard-shelled invertebrates differs from that of other hammerheads which usually do not eat such prey.

I'll keep trying. I'm enjoying the angle you are using now. I think I noticed you changing angles earlier but unless the angel is bad or the sound is bad I usually don't take notice. As long as it flows and i can see what's going on,, I'm a happy guy. I've caught Blue Fish, but never eaten one. I've heard reports that they are OK. Gotta be better than Jack Cravalle.

    I don’t like bluefish but the small snapper blues (no skin) if cooked the same day in a fish fry you 21:58 really can’t tell. I use the house autry fish fry, soak the fish in milk, I usually will have some speckled trout and maybe a red drum whenever I’m eating bluefish. So soak in milk before pan frying. Made some homemade cocktail sauce with ketchup, spicy Bloody Mary mix, bunch of hot horseradish, and some lemon. Kids love it and all the wives do as long as you don’t tell them it’s bluefish.

    I ate bluefish one time with Italian dressing on it on the grill. I thought it was very tasty. However, it gets a bad reputation for not being a tasty fish for some reason. The ribbon fish is very interesting. We don't get them up here in Mass/RI. If I get down there to NC or FL to fish and catch one, I may try your recipe. A few years ago, I watched one of your episodes on a sea robin. I did a catch and cook like you did and loved it. Very interesting episode as always!
