Mangos were hungry today

[Newell Nut]

Several people caught some nice mangos today and I have one of those once in a life time memories from the trip. I had a nice bat mango almost to the boat when I see something very large coming up from the bottom and then this giant jew fish engulfed my mango and then cruised back to the bottom to cut me off. Nice memory but I would rather have the mango. Fished on the Pastime Princess today in New Smyrna Beach FL.

Nice mangos Dwight!

I like the way the fish are hung.  Is that to dry them out?  No chilling needed for those Florida fish?

Keep posting pictures of fish so I can remember what they look like.

They hang up the stringers from the ice box as we approach the dock and all stringers have a number that is called out and then we take them to a box of ice water at the cleaning table. Fairly smooth operation.

Dang'it man, that is a mighty fine looking stringer of fish.
I see some candidates for Dom's steamed fish recipe.

Looks like a great day! Can't wait until I get on the Sea Spirit next month.

Good size Mango's there Dwight.

Nice.  They look like they are very tasty.  I wonder if they would be good shyabu style (dipped in hot water then dipped in sauce before eaten)

[Mikeflorian]

How long in the hot water Brian and what's the sauce like

How long in the hot water Brian and what's the sauce like

First prepare a platter of sashimi about 1/4" thick slices.

Then in the center of the table, you have boiling water.  A good, wide sauce pan and a burner.

Dip the fish in the hot water for as long as you like.  For me, it's only a few seconds until the outside of the fish turns white, and inside is slightly raw. 

Then dip it in ponzu (citric soy sauce) or shyabu shyabu (sometimes spelled shabu shabu) sesame seed sauce (Gomma), and enjoy.

I'm making myself hungry.

Thank you I'm getting hungry too

Do mango snapper taste as good as red snackers?
