Catch & Cook 24: BLACK SEA BASS - One Of The Best Tasting Fish! 

This was a slower outing of fishing so I decided to go ahead and prep the catch of the day in a simple whole fish recipe. Black sea bass is regarded by most a prized and well liked food fish. It's white flesh is flaky and sweet and can prepared in countless ways.
Daimon and I went to Connecticut for the day and fish with crabs in hopes of Tautog. Daimon got his limit of some nice fish but luck wasn't on my side this day. A lot of small random fish including toadfish and one 18" sea bass. Great way to get out of NYC for the day either way (aside from terrible traffic).
Recipe:
1) Legal Size to about 18" Sea Bass
2) Scaled & Gutted
3) Pat Dry Bring to Room Temperature
4) Cut Slits Every 2"
5) Rub Olive Oil
6) Season With Adobo & Fresh Garlic Generously
7) Add Salt if Desired
8) Stuff Cavity with Garlic And Herbs And Round a Tin Foil Ball
9) Stand Up On A High Heat Grill for 20 minutes (I covered it for last 5 minutes)
