Fresh caught Chinook or Coho Salmon smoked, baked, grilled, or fried...all good
Walleye is another very tasty fish...
We even eat bluegill up here...sweet tasting and plentiful
Walleye is ok. Blue gill is great! They grow to about pan size in this area. Quite a few bones, but worth the effort IMO.

it's been along time since i ate bluegills, but yes they are worht the trouble.
we have no clean water to fish them out of or i would do it.
Thought the only thing you use them for is bait.
there are several kinds of mackeral.
i've caught alot of spanish on the east coast (up to ten pounds) and they are good almost any way i ever cooked them.
they are highly predacious, as are King mackeral (up to about 100 pounds) which are good to eat too..
the ones i caught on the west coast (of CA) seemed more like algae eaters than predators, they didn't have the same mouth but had the same skin...
i never caught any mackeral when i was in HI.. everything had way differnet names there, and some looked similar to east coast fish but were not the same.
i don't know what kind of mackeral i've eaten at the sushi bars on the west coat.
they are not big and are grilled whole on the hibachi. they are cooked to a crisp. it surprised me how good they are.
a Korean friend after learning that i like sushi, sent me to a sushi bar and told me told me tell the owner he sent me. i would never have ordered cooked fish at a sushi bar, but the owner ( a member of my friends Baptist Church) sent it to our table. after that i always ask for it.

oh, and there's also a sashimi (the raw fish) that is called white tuna.
there are two kinds of white tuna one is albcore, and the other is not tuna at all -it's a mackeral- some call snake mackeral, however it's not THE Hawiaiian snake mackeral...
of course nobody would buy snake mackeral if that's what the menu says, so they call it white Tuna.
the snake mackeral is very oily
it's actually illegal to serve in Japan because it has a very powerful oils that cause some people severe stomach "disturbances" requiring a change of underwear
i've never had any problem with it, but i always make sure to only eat two or three peices, no more.

Maybe you guys that prefer the stangs over the Camaro have never heard of glasses or contacts?
Not to fawn over it too much....but c'mon...that is one awesome looking car. Wish I was currently in the market for a new car. Beautiful!

Ya know...I hate to say it. But it looks like something Europeans would make. I'm glad the US is catching up design wise.
PS: I would love to drive that car!
PSS: The only bad part is I would ruin the front view. We are required to have license plate in front and back of the vehicle. Too bad.

Here is the Volt info. There was that 2008 economic recover act that put a $7,500 tax credit into vehicles like this. Im sure there will be more benefits revealed soon.
For a non-sport vehicle I really like the Volt. Some places on the net have said that the sales for the 2011 Volt will roll out around November 2010. I called my local Chevy dealership and asked if they were taking orders yet (I assumed it was too early but I thought I would ask). They had said not yet, but they can still theoretically "take your order" whatever that means. The salesman said they did the same thing with the new Camaro a while back. It basically puts you in front of the line to get the first ones.
I think I will wait until I know more for sure before putting myself on that list.
Like the Camaro, the Volt is sexy..but not the little jelly bean type that the europeans are driving. Some of these mini cars are so small I could probably lift one up with my man strength. Hopefully what GM will do is keep the muscle and big body while making the vehicles more efficient.

One last word (and let's see if you keep your word of ignoring me lol)on this debate.
If you were for Americans then you would be for them getting employed no matter what, by whomever, whether domestic or foreign. But since you are not for them being employed by Foreign companies (in whatever industry) and rather they were unemployed whether you said it directly or implied then to me that is UnAmerican.
ok, back to your regularly scheduled program.

it's Steve McQueen V Burt Reynolds, Bullit or Bandit.
the Stang had alot of looks, but the 69 Boss is IMO the best looking peice of mass production ever done.
i think they looked even better than the Cobra, which wasn't real mass production
i admit camaros and T/A's came in some nice packaging too, but when i saw the first mustard yellow 302 boss in the showroom? i was hooked for life
That is a sweet car and in black no doubt which is even better... I like the new Camaro designs and such but there is something about the classics over the new ones... Though I'm glad to see that the American ones are getting better in design exterior wise because to me american designs were/are boring and some models look the same as other models by the same companies... but they are improving in that regards...
the 1967 GT Shelby 500 is my fave i think though... my manager at my job has a AMX.. i forget year and such...

Bluegills are a dime a dozen here in the NorthEast ponds so they bore me... I like Largemouth Bass of course and Walleye...
but as for ocean fish it would be swordfish and chilean sea bass... Mackerel is great as is Sardines... Mahi Mahi is great too... it's also caught in Costa Rica... alot of sportsfishing in CR Glass.. u should go someday... Marlin, Mahi Mahi etc. CR is known for it as well as surfing... For Tuna, Yellowfin is the most prized by the Japanese no? or is it Bluefin?

I am not sure what kind of mackeral they are catching these days, they are not much bigger than a good sized smelt.
I think alot of fish are labeled Mackerel that aren't Mackerel. This holds true for other species of fish as well. But anyways King Mackerel I think is the most popular. Here's more on them:

giant bluefin is the most prized. when i lived in SE Va? i had a commercial hook an line license basically because i had friends who were restaunteurs that could pay my fuel bill for the 50 mile ride out to the gulf. i wasn't trying to make a living off it, just pay for my habit. that and i was one of the last people issued one directly, and i was able to sell it for a profit when i left the area.
i was alllowed to keep any tuna but the giant bluefin. it sucked cuz they were bringing 5 to 20 grand per fish at the time. the italians and a couple of outfits in New England were still able to take 'em but we were prohibited off the Carolina coast.
