fishing 2011

plthijinx · 01-26-2011, 08:15 PM

finally, got to go fishing for the first time in over 5 years today. my roommate has a friend that owns a beach house on boliver peninsula just across galveston bay. we were roughing it today. not! anyway, the first two fish (redfish were all i (we) caught) were not big enough to keep. the first one was just over 15 inches and the second just over 16. they have to be within 20 - 24 inches to keep. otherwise they must be over 28 inches and you have to tag them from your license. the third one i caught got away because he wrapped the line around a barnacle covered pier pylon and snapped the line. number 4 however i landed. cooking it up for supper now on the grill with fresh jalapeno, garlic, bell pepper, lemon, crushed sea salt and butter. the first three pics are the canal and garage of the house....the next are obviously the fish....

a cold front moved through last night so that messed up the tide movement today. i'm really surprised we caught what we did....but happy that it wasn't a dry run so to speak.

and this was how it turned out. scrumptious! yellow bell pepper diced and some sliced jalepeno diced and moderately de-seeded, 1 lemon quartered and squeezed, 1 large clove garlic smashed and diced, splash of Worcestershire lots and lots of butter real butter. not the fake stuff, fresh ground pepper and sea salt. peppers and fish? really? yeah. try it. if i can impress my roommate with this recipe you can too! oh i almost forgot the light coating of oregano.

this just occurred to me...why not have a cellar biggest fish contest? winner gets a case of beer (up to a $35 value). here's da rules.... pic must contain yourself and the fish on a measuring tape. so basically one pic with you holding the fish and the other of the fish being measured. whaddya think? yes?

Undertoad · 01-27-2011, 12:09 PM

we could do that, exceptin' we'd have to substitute "cock" every time you said "fish".

plthijinx · 01-27-2011, 01:02 PM
