Redfish on the half shell.

View attachment 428000

On the half shell means skin still on, but filleted from the bone.
A Cajun friend recommended a recipe that is melted butter, garlic, and Sweet Baby Rays bbq sauce mixed with a 50/50 ratio to be lightly spread over the fillets. Then added Zatarans blackened seasoning. Let it sit in the fridge for a couple hours.
When cooking it on the pellet grill, temp at 325* for about 35 minutes until the internal temp reached 170*. Only cooked with skin side down. On the “half shell”, it retains the moisture making it extremely moist and flakey.
It was to die for. Who knew bbq sauce would work for fish?
I may have to try this with some mahi mahi. That sounds good!

I wish you did too, but we are all waiting for spring fishing to get here and warmer weather!
One good thing for fishing this cold spell will bring is a shad kill.
It’s been mild winters for the last three years on Kaw lake which is my home lake. There are so many shad in the lake that it’s tough to catch fish. Tons of fish but getting food is not an issue.
Motoring around the lake, all one sees are huge schools of shad with game fish following the school on the electronics.
A shad kill will benefit fishermen.
