    Are those Amberjack on the bottom? If so, have you eaten them before? I have but so few people I know have eaten them I am curious how others prepare them.

    I would love a couple fresh snapper right about now. A few of those look like bragging rights come attached.

    Nice haul.
  • Oh yeah!! That's definitely going to be some good eats.
  • I hope you kept the Amberjack throat area. It is incredible battered and fried, usually the Captains secretly keep that for themselves. I cook my Amberjack in a black iron skillet with a little bit of olive oil and a dry rub like Dizzy Pig Raging River made into a slurry and marinate in a zip top bag for an hour or so then on a medium high skillet until it is just barely opaque in the center, it will continue to cook after you pull it of the heat and the I make a cream dill sauce and enjoy.
