[@scottbishop7899]

If you are ever in the uk and stop at a fish and chip shop your fish is always deep fried, shallow fry them at home in a frying pan. Normally fried in batter unless you ask for a special fish supper you get it in breadcrumbs. Really good fried...

[@TugTrashOutdoors]

On my bucket list!

Thanks Tug and family for another great vid. I remember that my grand father and I fishing for many things on the inlet of the bay, we whet for octopus and flounder, we put our traps in for octo and then fish for flounder. The largest flounder was 35 in those days. We came back and pulled the traps for octo. You see that he and brothers got out before the 1st ww1 and he taut me many things in 1964 & 65. be for he died. Tanks for the memories. Old Master Gunnery SGT USMC. BTW he was an Greek fisher men. It would take me to long to tell you everything.

A quick and easy frying breading you might try. 1 cup pancake mix, 1 cup cornmeal, 1 tbsp garlic powder and 1 tbsp cayenne. ( More or less to taste) My way of using it is breading, egg dip, then breading. It's delicious.

[@NoleFan74]

Great video, Ian and Krystal! I love it!! I'll admit, I've never eaten barracuda, I know they stink and then crap on you or all over the boat like lady fish!! I know about Ciguatera and know it takes a certain mix of things for it to contaminate fish, it will also poison grouper, snapper, jacks and other reef predators. The only ones I've caught or seen up in North Florida are much bigger and wouldn't be one you ever wanted to eat anyway!! I would have had no problem eating those little guys y'all caught!! Not many fish if cooked fresh out of our waters aren't amazingly good!

[@TugTrashOutdoors]

Thank you! If seen some huge ones on the reefs up here
