Cool looking fish. We have one that kind of looks like the tarakihi out here on the west coast called a sargo. The john dory is something else(a cross between a triggerfish and a halibut??????... I see why you used the name fish and chips. Makes me want to cook up a batch.

Interesting shirt.

LOL cool shirt indeed everyday is birthday suit day...
ahem back to the fish... the john dory is thin when looking at it front on
it's mouth extends a good 10 inches to engulf it's prey
think of alien but without the teeth :)
my main fish i wish to catch is halibut, wish we had them here in nz all we have is turbot. big fish but not caught by anglers.
still both have firm white fillets. suitable to frying bakeing grilling but like any fish almost cooked is better than well done.

....our relatives of that fish here in Florida would be the "lookdowns" or some people say "Moonfish". Chrome plated cool as hell.

Nice looking fish you caught there. Good eats. I like seeing what other folks catch around the world. I like the name of the second type of fish. I gotta get this tub I'm working on in the chuck and go get some eats.

Legend has it that John Dory is the fish that Jesus passed around with the loaves of Bread and that is his thumb mark on its side.

They say that a Sicilain Donkeys dark colored cross on it's withers is there because it's the type of Donkey "Mary" rode.

But since I had one, I always wondered why it was such a "devil from hell".

So how could that be??? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Is that a fresh water Trout?

Ahhh.. T-routz!
