[QUOTE="Lostlunker, post: 46934, member: 670"] Back when I lived in Salt Lake City I used to cook at a seafood restaurant that was known for serving around 7 to 10 different species of fish at any given time so I have gotten the opportunity to try a variety of different fish. My faves are: Kokanee Salmon - Without a doubt the best tasting fish I have had the pleasure of putting in my mouth. Sear or grill it to mid rare/medium brush a little butter on top and it just melts in your mouth. It has a more delicate texture than your average farm raised or wild salmon and has a nice soft flavor with a hint of that familiar salmon taste combined with the fresh caught/wild flavor. Best way to describe it is smooth. Grouper - Meatier fish similar to Halibut and Salmon and has a clean sweet fish flavor would be the best way to describe it. My favorite way to cook Grouper is to roast some hazelnuts in the oven throw em in a blender with a little flour and grind them up to a nice breading consistency. Dip the fillet in egg wash and coat it with the hazelnut mixture and cook till its done. Walleye/Perch/Bluegill/Northern - 4 way tie, delicate Fillets that taste like fish. Always tastes better when you catch them yourself. My preferred method is beer battered but I like it dusted with flour and fried, coated with shore lunch and fried, even baked or grilled up in some tin foil. Hard to screw up cooking it unless you throw it in the oven and forget it until you hear the smoke detector go off. Out of cold water any one of these species are a great meal. I don't really need to go into details about this one on here but I was on a roll so I kept going. I could go on but it's getting late and those are the ones that stick out. I think about the only fish I don't like is Swordfish and Mahi Mahi. Swordfish is too dry for my liking and I don't like the flavor of Mahi Mahi. [/QUOTE]
