Fresh Mahi seems just fine to me seared on the grill. It is crunchy on the outside and the juice squirts out when you cut into it. Just don't overcook it. I save that cajun stuff for frozen Cod or EEEK, that septic tank grown Tilapia. Actually we can catch Tilapia out of the pond right here in the neighborhood. They got loose here in Florida and they are turning up everywhere. |

My neighbor pulled a "too small" Bass out of the catch basin along Broadway, the main drag from 41 to my road. He threw it back into our pond. If the gators didn't get it, we may have a lot of bass in there. To my knowledge he is really the only guy who fished there. He used to drop a line in every little puddle he saw and caught all sorts of stuff. The wild caught tilapia I have had, weren't horrible. |

Mahi are the same way, fast fish. The little schoolies are weird tho. If you have one hooked in the water, they will all come around to see what he is eating and you can fill the boat if you wanted to, as long as you keep one hooked in the water.

Most of the bigger warm water fish are fast. I had a small, maybe 30#, Bluefin tuna strip a reel of about 165 yards in 20 seconds. Was fishing 20# test for Yellowtail when we hid a small schooler Skipjack tuna. The bluefin were underneath the skippies. |

The warning is because of California law. A friend manufactures a plastic bait rotator for salmon fishing. Comes with toothpicks to hold the bait in place with instructions on which brass brad to buy if you want a metal holder. Avoids having to have the warning placed. Prop 65 was a public placed proposition that was passed. |
On tap for tonight

Costco had fresh mahi mahi on sale. https://www.fromvalerieskitchen.com/...ned-mahi-mahi/ I always thought all that spice was just to brighten up mediocre fish. Fresh Mahi seems just fine to me seared on the grill. It is crunchy on the outside and the juice squirts out when you cut into it. Just don't overcook it. I save that cajun stuff for frozen Cod or EEEK, that septic tank grown Tilapia. Actually we can catch Tilapia out of the pond right here in the neighborhood. They got loose here in Florida and they are turning up everywhere. === Yes, even the drainage ditches along 41. I agree with you on preparing Mahi, no heavy seasoning required. --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. https://www.avg.com What, if anything, do you put on it. How do you fix it, baked, broiled, grilled, fried, or what? It is pretty good if you sear it over high heat on the grille. That is how I usually get it in restaurants here. I give it a light dusting of Adobo, basically garlic, salt and pepper. Don't kill it with spice and don't overcook it. A nice coating of unsweetened coconut flakes and Panko and quickly fried In oil or butter? I used butter with the blackened seasoning. We mostly cook with olive oil. But if you want a butter addition, use oil with a dab of butter. Thanks. |
