Tom went deep sea fishing last night to see what it was like. He caught a good bounty and came home very late exhausted from the physical nature of that trip. Staying within 5 miles or so of the coast off Huntington Beach, they used live bait to troll the bottom of the ocean. Tom kept 5 sand bass for us to experiment with at home. Sorry, Dad, I've never cleaned a fish! Kendra is the resident expert, but I must have missed that day of class... so now it's time to fillet! As Jared would say, "Eeeewww." I must admit, the smell isn't something I like in my kitchen. He was told they are quite tasty, so we'll try it!

Those fish look like a lot of fun! All you have to do is slice open the fishes' tummy, cut the throat and then PULL from the tounge and all the insides will come out! It's fun. And don't forget to cut open the stomach to find out what the fish have been eating. It'll be a good learning experience! And have Jared touch the eyeballs, they feel funny and squishy. I use to do it all the time and I turned out fine....
Tom hacked a few fillets out of these guys and we ate them for dinner on Sunday. Not bad. Tastes like chicken.
