Its not supposed to be spicy at all..... Maybe you cooked a little of the poison mucus. You better double check your WILL.

Spicy In equals Spicy Out.

The poison is painful, and causes swelling, and redness of the affected area.

Put the TP in the freezer now !

I think I'd give a call to the poison control center, and follow any advice they give.

My wife said she added black pepper to the skin, but even for black pepper that was still spicy. I feel fine, i kind of feel like i ate habenero pepper.

Well, ill work on my will just in case.

All you have to do is trim all the fins right.

I told you to give it to me but nooooooooo.
I've caught dozens and dozens of Sculpin over the years, never cooked it with the skin on, always filleted it. I'm thinking that the skin along with the pepper may be the reason it tasted the way it did. Totally sucks that you didn't enjoy it because that was a nice sized fish.

LOL, I didn't know you were suppose to skin the fish!!!. that makes sense.

Hey that fish was good, i enjoyed even with the extra flavor. Well maybe it was a little bit too spicy lol.

Yea must of been something going on with the frying pan lol. Sculpin is my favorite fish to eat, delicious. I always fillet mine though, but doubt the skin would add any spice lol.

Soooo... did your wife eat any of the fish, or just smile at you adoringly as YOU at it??? Have you noticed anything else peculiar around the house lately??? Does your lemon-lime gatorade taste like antifreeze? Maybe a tinge of Drain-o in your glass of milk?
