We live in an area that is a fishermans paradise. We have striped bass that ranges from a few pounds to over 20 lbs. We also have trout, large and small mouth bass, catfish, sturgeon, salmon and many more. This recipe is one I learned from my mom as my dad was also a fisherman. It's great served with a green salad, french bread and a peach cobbler! (You can also mix in some cooked white rice with the sauce after cooking for a great sidedish.)
