Fishing tip of the week: Blowfish or some call them pufferfish are one of my favorite fish to eat. For those of you that have never tried blowfish you won’t believe how nice the meat looks & taste. This fish is very easy to clean. Make a 1/4 inch cut at the back of the head. Then slide a finger under the skin toward the back of the fish. You will see a large white chunk of meat. Just invert the fish, & there it is. Try it you’ll be glad you did. Keep fishing & stay safe.
