I myself went over the edge with my post yesterday, gotta say I never realized how addicted I am to reading posts until I can't! Been good for me to sit and drink my coffee.

Looking forward to seeing the thread back up.

Care to share the reciepe? That would be a nice change of pace! I'm not a good cook and always love to try new ways to prepare my catch. One of my favorites for gills is to simply wrap a piece of bacon and a piece of pineapple around the fillet and bake....simple yet tasty!

Hey Trapp...I know what I can say to give you a good feeling. Only a couple more months to Rocky season!!!

trapper2000 · « **Reply #41 on:** Feb 13, 2015, 07:15 AM »

I know it sounds crazy but I look forward to that I even tie a special clouser fly to look lit a goby to catch them

rgfixit · « **Reply #42 on:** Feb 13, 2015, 07:20 AM »

You betcha

I only pickle thoroughly frozen / thawed fish. Parasitic worms are a real possibility using any fresh fish.

Wash fillets in cold water

Brine;
6 cups distilled water (very important to avoid a mineral taste)
2 cups pickling salt

Soak fish in brine 4-6 hours or so (keep refrigerated)
Remove fish and rinse thoroughly in cold water...discard brine

Layer fish / Vidalia onion, sliced about 1/8" in a clean glass jar. (I save my pickle jars) Pack fairly well.

Heat;
4 cups white vinegar ( at least 5% acid)
1 cup cider vinegar ( at least 5% acid)
2 cups sugar
1 cup sweet white wine
3 tbsp pickling spice

Bring to a slow boil then cool to room temp. Strain the pickling spices from the mixture

Pour over fish/onions to completely cover contents.

With a long utensil (I use a chopstick) poke down into the packed jar to remove any air bubbles and refill with remaining pickling solution.

Cover tightly and refrigerate for a good week before eating (if you can stand to wait that long

)

Keep refrigerated!

Should be consumed within 4 - 6 weeks......like it's gonna last that long

Floatman · « **Reply #45 on:** Feb 13, 2015, 07:35 AM »

Rg...Thanks for posting that recipe. I definitely have to try that. Any species particularly better than others for that?

rgfixit · « **Reply #46 on:** Feb 13, 2015, 07:53 AM »

I prefer perch but bluegills are good too. ove tried bass, walleye, pikeral, pike even white perch once.........once

They're all pretty tasty, but perch win the prize.
