Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day...Teach a man to fish and he will eat for a lifetime.

James and his fellow resident, Mark Elison, went to Tampa Bay, Florida this last weekend to attend an implant conference. I'm sure they learned a lot about implants during the 4 days they were there, but they also managed to squeeze in some time to go deep-sea fishing.

Here's the fish that Mark caught...



Here's the fish that James caught a few hours later...

When James arrived home a few days later (at midnight) he woke me up and proudly proclaimed that he had brought some fish home that he had caught himself. Here's how the rest of that conversation went:

Lisa: Great! What kind?

James: Ocean fish

Lisa (thinking this information would be pertinent when I cooked it): No, what kind? A grouper, a snapper?

James: I don't know, a fish that came out of the ocean.

The next day we talked to Mark and determined that it was indeed a redfish. I'm not quite sure how to cook it, but I'm thinking some lemons, garlic and a grill sound great.
