Cooking Rockfish

[racer12306]

Went on a charter trip over the weekend and had a nice haul. We hit limit and came home with two 35" fish, a 36" fish and two 38" fish.

Anyone have some tips for some variety in cooking this up? We cooked one fish for a cookout that night. (Fed 8 people) For that I cut up the fillets in nice portions then put it on foil on the grill with lemon, butter and pepper. Came out really good.

Our share made 9 meals, so plenty of opportunity to try some different methods.

For those not familiar, you may know them as rock bass or stripers. It's a firm, white fish.

M'mmm! Lemon, butter, ground black pepper...Sounds good to me!
I like blackened pepper rub on alot of types of grilled fish.

I prefer a pan sear rather than grilling for light tasting fish. Then make a simple meunière sauce: slightly browned butter, lemon juice, capers. Sprinkle parsley and serve.
