Fishing Frenzy

March 2007, Point Loma Fishing

I'd say that the lab fishing trip turned out to be a success. Let's check out the tally:

- 8 adventure seeking scientists
- 8 dramamine
- 1 Jon Driscoll green around the gills
- countless lives of small baitfish
- 1 croaker
- 1 scorpion fish
- 4-5 short barracudas
- 3 mackerel
- 1 jack-pot winning sand bass (nice one Dave)
- 1 round of beer that Dave has promised to buy with winnings, but has yet to be seen
- all girls outfishing guys
- 8 dead tired scientists


The Taste Test.
- panko bread crumb-crusted scorpion fish. Two thumbs up. Who knew that such a poisonous looking fish would be so delicious. Nature, you can't fool us.
- grilled mackerel. Mehhh. . . too bony too fishy. How do the sushi chefs do it?
- poached sea bass with ginger and scallions. The best tasting of all the fish we caught. The bass tasted like tilapia but with way less dirt flavour and more texture.
