I just made up 3 qts. and I put slice onions in the mix. I put my sucker fish in a brim of vinegar and salt , after 5 to 6 days I wash it out in clear water and then let it soak for 8 hours and had my mix made yesterday and then put in jars with a layer of onions for each one. and then put the mix in and now is in the fridge to sit now.

So you dont cook the fish at all just dump it in the solution and once you take it out you got flavored susi..? It's pickled. (preserved in vinegar or brine)

mhmm interesting... how strong is the fish smell when your eating it? is it one of those you love or hate? You eat the onions as well i assume... if you make it into a dish to serve what goes well with it? Almost no fishy taste. Its more of a snack item, not a meal. Like pickles, and pickled eggs. And yes you either like them or can't get over the thought of it.

I have some in the brine now also. Let sit for 5 to 6 days then put in jars and add the pickle mix and set for 24 to 48 hours then the fun to begin to eat . Went out fishing for some suckers yesterday only caught one . let it go till there is more of them.The ones I got in brine was in the freezer. Could have had 40+ suckers today for you.

I won't be going an sweeter than my 5 cusp vinegar 6 cups sugar 2 cups wine, but I don't like overly sweet things.
you mean , crackers , cheese , pickled fish and beer don't make a meal?
had eggs for breakfast , pickled fish and beer for lunch , black eyed peas for supper.

Those Bass are awesome Jayme!
So you made this batch of fish with the extra sugar? He caught over a dozen from 2.5-5 lbs ea. in about an hour, lots of fun! Yes much more sugar/vinegar. 5 c. vinegar - 8 c. sugar. Coincidentally a very similar ratio as we use for lime water sweet pickles. Still made plenty of brine for a gallon of fish/onions.

That would of made alot , I would of store what I did not use right away in the freezer till I was ready . I did went out last Monday to get some but just got one. So I let it go. Need to go back out to hope with it warm up some they will bite better .

had eggs for breakfast , pickled fish and beer for lunch , black eyed peas for supper. ... and sleeping in the garage tonight if you're married! almost 20 years one of the tools to a successful marriage is separate bedrooms that took 10 years to figure out , she can be around when she wants and sleep alone when she wants , I also sleep much better with out the elbow every time I snore / breath. I also have on-call shifts for work and get randomly woken to solve an issue anytime anything breaks better she gets to sleep through all that. she is also not a morning person so I can let her sleep and get up and get coffee going start chores and such , she likes to read till late and I am a out the second my head hits the pillow person. but her mother though for sure we were getting a divorce when we went to separate beds, there is a lesson for the young folks , whatever makes your marriage work don't worry about other peoples ideas of how it should be. Marriage is you , her and your god , don't worry about the MIL thinks. funny thing is more and more doctors and shrinks are recommending separate beds and or bedrooms getting good sleep makes everything a little easier. pickled fish and marriage help all brought to you by T-man.

GCP - My wife and I sleep in the same bed as we have for bout 26 years now, couldn't be happier. I'll admit we sleep better now than the first 6 years since I've had my CPAP machine so I don't snore. I am going to admit I wasn't super keen on the idea at first , but a week on my camping cot in the living room about 2009 changed my mind , I slept good but I wanted my bed back so I turned my office into a bedroom and moved my office to the basement , bought her a twin xl and got my bed back everyone has to find what works for them. My wife needs to sleep on her schedule or she is irritable. this just works better for us

This is the beginning day 1 of final brine pickle. Everything is packed tightly. This is near the end of day 2 in the final brine. Batch is floating. So we must wait until it all sinks to the bottom before eating.? I am getting anxious to jump in. Kind of like your first date. Are you getting to first base,hitting a home run or striking out..
