Be sure to eat some of it raw, with a little soy and wasabi.
WSB sashimi is the bomb!!
Not a whole lot of trip reports lately in the California section, but the ones we're getting are pretty damn good.
Rich - Check out my dinner tonight! Did I get it right? Bomb-diggity-dawg! Great advice as usual sir!

I'm not sure if it's too late, but if you haven't cleaned the fish yet, don't discard the carcass. Oil it, season it and throw it on the grill -- there's a lot more meat on there than you'd think and it tastes fantastic.
Definitely do this with the next one, thanks man!

I hope you saved the collars! A warm July day with a cold beer and a seabass collar on the BBQ? That's just about heaven.
10-4... Collars are in the freezer for a special day Thanks bud!
