Any kind caught while trolling.



Thanks for stalking me into yet another thread where you wrongly impute some nefarious motive to me.



On the bright side, at least she didn't point out your refusal to pay off the wager you proposed and then lost.

i probably have some ling cod in the freezer. we caught one while halibut fishing, but i was tired when we came in and wrapped everything and labelled it all halibut. i just hope it doesn't pop up on the rare occasion i make fish n chips.



You can't mistake the two...the only reason ling cod doesn't get all the big press is because the meat isn't nearly as white as halibut. It works for me because that depresses the price but it still tastes great. Worst case scenario, you do mistake the two and fry up your ling...which you might notice is what I said was my favorite fish to fry. ;)

no you can't, are you are right, when i open a package and its not halibut, i will fry it. i'll still batter and deep fry a couple pieces though just to see how that works. how do you fry it? i usually just put a little seasoning (blackened or tony chacheres) and throw it in the pan with some olive oil. recently i had some rolled in panko and fried and it was reallly good.

I've got an idea. How about bringing a few packages here http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=3301146#3301146 and we can help you decide which is ling cod and which is halibut. Mountain Home isn't any further than the rest of us are goiing to travel from.:)

I was referring to deep-frying, just like you were talking about doing with the halibut. I don't know how well ling cod would pan-fry...it's kind of soft for that. But it certainly makes good fish & chips. B|

Ling cod. It's SOOO much better than grey/true/pacific cod.

especially when it is freshly speared .... out of the water and into the frying pan;);););)

Hey Dave,
Actually doc and I flash fry it in olive oil, and some of our puerto rican spices (bohillo -sp?)......honestly, I find it to be the best way to eat it.:)

I don't care how it gets out of the water. I just want some fresh and in the frying pan. All this fish talk is really making me want to go visit a friend living on the No Cal coast. Only problem is, no jumping where she is......

Just need to come over on the boat. Mt Vernon is just a hop skip and a jump away from where we are moored in Anacortes.:)
