Best catfish, shid when u live in between the swamps and marsh
catfish is the last fish you think about eating

swamp/freshwater - Choupie aka bowfin,
sac-a-lait aka crappie, bass, perch

Marsh/saltwater - redfish/red drum, speckled trout, drum

choupie is my the favorite, with some red beans gotta have a little hit of Louisiana hot sauce to sprinkle on it

then my next choice is redfish

Bro we have issues down here but I guarantee you that anyone can have a fucking blast here.
I mean even in the worse cities like N.O & B.R.

I haven’t been yet but I’m planning to attend these events
not my thing but I’m sure that shit be live as hell


And



but sorry to everyone for turning this in a Boot thang…. Back to abroad location

Hey its a TRAVELING post.. and DABOOT is a top traveling destination bruh..

Now about that fish Choupie and Red... is it best fried with some fried okras,

I try to eat mostly veggies and fruits but fried fish and Fried okra are my guilty pleasures fo sure..

Everybody I know that visits say they had a great time....oh and Weed is still very illegal out there so,

thats probably the main reason it didnt make top of the places I gotta visit..

but its in the top 20 tho..

well the amount of weed I smell, no way I’d say it’s illegal
Y’all fuckers need to respect others sense of small :D :D :D :D

for as the fish, Choupie meat is a very sensitive meat. When u have it, I’d say it’s fair fresh. We normally keep that fish alive, then knock it out before we clean. The meat is soft textured, it can get mushy.

very few people have master ways of freezing it. U will always see sign saying “live choupie for sale”

now we do make patties or balls from the meat, but the meat is cooked

Now Redfish is stored like any other meat.

I’ve prepared or tasted redfish a number of ways fried, baked, sauté and in a broth(my trini homeboy turned me on to this)

Sauté and placed over hot creamy buttery grits is almost a phenomenal dish but it’s hard for me to put redfish over shrimps when it comes to grits….

I haven’t made a broth yet, but likely will this weekend…


but yes you can fry both and have a wonderful time…

Bruh if you or anyone else ever decide to visit Da Boot, depending on time of year…. and comfortably we have with each other. We can do a little throwdown aka kickback.
I have a shrimp plug, well socket because I’m the plug… that ain’t nothing

We could have a nice lil boil which include turkey necks, shrimp, corn, potatoes and sausage… these really don’t have a season

Redfish don’t have a season either but

choupie, crawfish, crabs is about timing

Soooooo all in all u see we don’t really fuck with catfish, not that we don’t eat it but we don’t have to…

Bruh After seeing some recipies for that Choupie that shit looked good fleshy and meaty..

Bruh Im mostly a veggie eater but I love my fried fish, now I dont normally eat shrimp..

But If I see some served with GRITS... IM GOING IN bruh and NOT lookin back..

Normally I like my crispy fried whitings with grits.. or Ill do some sardines and grits,

but shrimps cleaned up and cooked buttery right... yea Im going in..

I used to love sausage and all that but I cant fuck with it now.. Ill start to

break out and get bumps especially if its pork...

but my shit is fish and fried okra I can eat that shit eight days aweek

as long as I got some lemon and hot sauce..

If I come by that way Ill definitely look you up...

hey who knows bgols first annual meet and greet yacht bash,

might be in Da Boot bruh!!

This exactly how it’s done, only difference I knock the fish out before cleaning…

And I don’t sprinkle seasoning on mine, mainly hot sauce or nothing…

RIP to the BRUH but not for nothing, you dont go to areas,

SHADY AREAS in ANY HOOD ANY WHERE IN THE WORLD,

just TAKING OUT YOUR EXPENSIVE CAMERA TAKING PICTURES..

is BEGGING fo trouble..

He didnt deserve to get murked but in this case, with some

situational awareness, it couldve been avoided...

the crazy shit is, he isnt even a passport bro, He was

a lawyer in a happy relationship, that was heavily into

travel photography...

but fo real tho...If you traveling to so called third world countries..

leave the gold jewelry, and expensive camera and phone behind...

in many places they thirsty as fuck for IPHONES and GOLD JEWELRY...

which is pretty much any hood anywhere in the world....

Went to Portugal, Greece & Jamaica last year. Wife & I are debating on Costa Rica or Puerto Rico in April for our birthday.

What was Portugal like? I know they have a lot of history especially with the slave trade (Spain too).

I was out in Madrid this past November, my first Euro trip but I'm looking fwd to getting back across the pond in the warmer months to see what it do.

Doing a cruise next week. Belize is the highlight for me on the trip.

..I've never been on a cruise, but this chick I'm seeing right now has been talking them up so I may try one out.
I've always wanted to hit up Mexico and heard good things about Belize so visiting both in the same cruise might be the move :yes:

Have a good time fam, let us know how it was :cheers:

Costa Rica over Puerto Rico mayne. If you taking your girl stay in the Liberia area. I did a 3 hour ATV tour through some rainforest, villages, rivers and saw some amazing shit. Get out and see the Rio Celeste waterfall shit looks amazing in person like it does on pics. The rain forests in Costa Rica shit on the El Yunque rain forest in Puerto Rico.Take a day trip to Nicaragua.

Now if you not taking your old lady then stay in San Jose area.

Portugal was dope, Lisbon specifically where we went. I was skeptical at 1st if I would like the vibe given their slave trade history but I left impressed. Its probably the most friendliest European country towards black folk I've visited so far. Now I see why black folks are moving there.

The food was real good & I recommend a black restaurant there called Sofia's place



Also this place had the best burger & steak I ever had, we went there twice:

Atalho Real
+351 21 346 0311

There's a lot of tourist activities to do during the day. Maybe my only drawback was the night life wasn't really popping for our type. We did find a cool hooka lounge though.
