A few years ago I was in Singapore and watched those fuckers (Japanese boats) unloading tons and tons of salmon (frozen blocks) that sure weren't caught in Japan.

Same way you would cook any grouper. Baked and stuffed with crab meat. Filets cooked on the grill, fried bite size chunks, etc.

Biggest coho I ever put the net on was 16. Adults will top out in the. 9-12 range.

You think the Japanese would go and rape Kamachatka before chugging all the way to California. Hell maybe they already have.

Fished hard noon Saturday through Sunday afternoon and made it home with one tuna and two tiles. All in all still a fun trip out.

I guess I should have held it out like a true fisherman and called it a 30"

That's a damn nice walleye! Nice fish!...congrats.
I don't think there's a better eating fresh water fish...

I don't know jack about ocean fish or ocean fishing really, but I did get to go several times when I was a kid.
I distinctly remember catching a bunch of Bonita in the gulf but the captain/guide referred to them as trash fish.
But, I've also read of people eating them too..??
And, this may be way off target, but I've also heard people calling dolphin/Mahi Mahi, Bonita. And I KNOW it's damn good eating!
So,...what's the skinny?

Most would agree with you bonita=trash and I'm sure not eating one. As for the dolphin/Mahi mahi/Dorado are excellent eating and a absolute blast to catch.

At home it would have been thrown back because I only keep 18"-24". They keep up to 26" so it was a keeper. Fun night either way.
