Ocean Fish Recipes

Over time we have come to realize that preparing the fish that you catch is a topic that many people find valuable. In an effort to meet this need we are going to be including recipes for preparing your catch. Feel free to leave your comments below.

This recipe is real easy and quick. It works best with whole fish fillets. I like this one best with Salmon fillets, but Lingcod and halibut are equally as good.

1 can of cream of mushroom soup

equal amount of sour cream

lemon pepper, or Cajun season, or any other seasoning you prefer.

Cheddar cheese,[ shredded,] or any kind of cheese you think will work for you.

sauce pan about the size of a bread pan.

preheat oven to 350 degrees

Sprinkle the seasoning on the fillet to taste. Put the seasoned fillets in the pan. Thoroughly mix the cream of mushroom soup and the sour cream and spoon on enough to completely cover the fish. Place the pan in the oven for about 30 to 35 minutes for an average size fillet. Sprinkle on cheese and replace in oven until melted. Remove and let stand for 15 minutes or so. Serve with hot garlic bread.

I also like this one cold on the next day.

Lots of Lingcod – Great Fishing Over Last Weekend

Captains Reel — Tue, 23 Feb 2010 17:25:35 +0000

Well, after canceling our trips for the first two weeks of of February due to a very rough ocean, we finally had a few beautiful days last week end. The ocean was flat with very little wind and the fish were biting. Quite a few limits on Lings, [2 per person,] and some limits on the Rock Fish,[7 per person.] Everyone was catching fish. We had quite a variety of the Rock Fish with Cabazon, Kelp Greenling[ also called sea trout,] Vermilion Rock, China Rock, and the usual Black Rock and Blue Rock Fish. Everyone went home with some nice bags of fillets.

Crabbing on the other hand wasn’t quite as good. We did get a few dungeness crab but nothing to write home about. The beginning of the commercial crab season was the best it’s been in a long time but it has tapered off also. That’s normal in the crabbing end of things. I often hear people try to lay blame on things that are man caused but crabbing has always run in cycles, and it will definitely be picking up.

We have trips scheduled for the next few days so I hope the forecast is for no wind and flat oceans.

Come and go fishing with us.

5 hour rock fishing trip

Sunday’s fishing was real good. It was the catching that was difficult. A few small Lingcod had to be thrown back with three legal ones [ 22 in. or bigger] put in the basket along with a few rock fish. I think they averaged 2.6 fish per rod.

I have been fishing all of my life and I always have the classic fisherman’s quotes when the catching isn’t as good as I like it. “It’s a full moon, we’ve had back to back storms, too much bait fish so the fish aren’t hungry, you should have been here yesterday, etc,etc.” But, we do love to fish and we know the next time the catching will be better. Oh ya, did I mention the crabbing wasn’t good either.

We have another 5 hour trip going out tomorrow. The ocean is flat and they are calling for a little rain but that just makes for an exciting trip. [ I much prefer to fish in the rain instead of the wind.]

Until next time,

We are fishing

The storms are subsiding and we are going rock fishing/crabbing Sunday the 31st.

The big lingcod are in the shallows spawning this time of year so we are expecting a good catch.

I will give an update later
