Conundrum

[Capt Juls]

Still won't work. I'd bleed them for 15 minutes when we got back to the sick (boat had a livewell and they were still alive), cut them, zipper them, remove any dark meat and have nothing but a bleach white fillet left. Grilling them, baking them, bragging and frying/deep frying them, fishy taste is still there. Even a hint of it and I'm done. I've been able to take a bite or two when it's still streaming right off the grill, but as soon as it cools down that taste comes back. It's not a big deal though, my wife, dad and kids all love it grilled, so I just throw a burger, deer burger or a couple of brats with sauerkraut on the grill and we all eat well. My mother doesn't like fish either, so we usually have to make something else anyways.

Oh my.... how unfortunate for you.

It's a mixed bag. On one hand, I do love burgers and brats. On the other, I make fish tacos with homemade mango salsa and I'm told they're fantastic, I would love to try them someone. Grilled chicken is an okay substitute, but I really wish I could find a way to do the fish. Either way, as Wakina said, happy wife, happy life, and my wife is always happy when I make her some walleye!

Right…

I have a buddy that's the same way. Not sure why… but as Juls said, cleaning makes all the difference in the world. This buddy just can't get himself to even try it now. I say it is a mental block… he disagrees.
