My wife and mother-in-law joined me to taste the YT I caught last week. I filleted the fish, prepared the dinner and even did the dishes. I made their portions small but not small enough as there was was still something left on the plate after dinner. Bummer.

I need a wife who loves the taste of fresh fish. Mine has stuck with me for way too many years to be a candidate for replacement but there must be some way to train the pallet.

Any suggestions?
