sounds like a great time and how's cod for eating??

 

[joel the signman]

delicious. i had fillets with butter,garlic,salt and pepper tonight im going to make up a huge batch of fish cakes with the scrappy parts you mix the fish with mashed potato ,onion,salt pepper make into patties then dip in egg and bread crumb either fry or bake

A 20oz jig? What a work out. Sounds like a great time, what times dinner?

I need to go fishing as good as the venison has been this year I'm ready for a fish fry.

 

[WHITETAILFEVER]

Sounds like you had a great time joel!! And the eating as well.i never had cod?what does it compare to as far as taste?

 

[joel the signman]

its a white flakey firm meat like fluke,flounder ,halibut.I made up the mix last night and let it set/firm up overnight .I have enough for 75 cakes

 

[WHITETAILFEVER]

Mmmmm... SURE DOES SOUND GOOD!!! MAKES ME WANT TO GO DO SOME ICE FISHING.

 

[joel the signman]

taste similar to perch thru the ice

I am from R.I been cod fishing plenty of times. Yes it is work! Lots of fun though. If you ever get the chance give it a try. Caught in several hundred feet of water usually. These are great eating , cook them how ever you want. They are a mild great tasting fish. You can not compare this to any freshwater species. Most fish markets have it may be called scrod(young fish) or cod. Good eatin!

 

[joel the signman]

heres the first of many that day

 

[Hunting Man]

nice fish!:yes:

 

[WHITETAILFEVER]
