Thats probably for the current issue. You can view archives in pdf format starting a month back > November 2010 - ? at no charge. Alott of the info in the mags will never go out of date. Thats a sweet offering.


Johnny, I will see if I can dig up a pic later

Terry- I think it is a whole 12 dollars for the on line. Archives go back 3 or 4 years for the most part.

Great post, had no idea I was wasting meat. Will definately save the throat meat and even try boiling the backbone for some soup stock. It's winter and some fish soup sounds good with maybe some andouie sausage. Or Feesh soup for you capt Dave. Thanks

Here you go Johnny, ..

Soups are good and easy to make as well , A real hit with the ladies..

Many moons ago, there was the huge World Famous Red Snapper Fleet at Pensacola Florida.

You could go down to the cleaning docks and buy a complete snapper head for a dime(yes; 10 cents).

The whole thing, after washing cleaning out the gills and eyeballs, would go into a big stock pot on the back of the stove and boiled, along with different mixtures of spices, releasing all of the edible parts from the skull..

Thia would make into some of the best tasting chowder, gumbo and other concoctions that would feed a whole household pretty well.

I fillet a whole Redfish from stem to stern, remove the gills, eyeballs and guts then bake it. There's a lot of meat there; some of which is 'normally' wasted.

Try it; you might like it. JMHO C2
