..... about how to prepare this fat one.

Caught on 4-6-16 at 8:15 AM on a fly lined greenback in 60 feet of water. Not super long but really fat. Around 26 pounds.

Talking with Yani on the phone, I told him that I wanted to make shish kabobs with my recipe of brown sugar, pineapple juice, and soy sauce. Then he asked if I had tried his sauce for his Yellowtail Steak recipe which I had not. It sounded super good so I had to try it. A very simple recipe.....

1/3 cup of honey
juice of 3 limes
dash of hot sauce

I also added a little dill and salt.

Well I have to say this was the tastiest yellowtail that I have ever eaten. For those of you that do not have your own personal chef, just go to fishermansbelly.com for Yani's tasty recipes .....

Like. Yannis recipes are fantastic, and usually easy to do.

Nice one! Looks like a great recipe too. Never really thought about YT kabobs, but its firm enough that I bet it works great.

Nice fish, and kabobs. The last few yellows we caught were long and skinny, we much prefer the shorter really fat ones.
