Grill Your Catch with the BBQ Buddy

The BBQ Buddy Fish Griller is the perfect grill accessory for the fisherman who loves to eat fish like a man- whole and cooked over a flame. The BBQ Buddy looks like it would be great cooking fresh fish over a campfire, something I did quite often this year while camping in Algonquin Park. Let me tell you there’s nothing quite like the taste of a freshly plucked mouth-watering piece of flame grilled fish, and there’s nothing worse than watching those pieces fall through the grill before you can eat them.

The BBQ Buddy Fish Griller is a two-piece metal basket that latches together, securely holding your fish in place. When the time comes to turn your prize catch on the grill you can simply flip the basket, keeping not only the fish, but your pride intact. Made from heavy-duty metal the fish griller is also a handy camping companion.

The No Fail Five Fillet Boneless Pike

We catch a lot of pike here at Fishing Fury, and it shouldn’t surprise you that we’ve eaten out fair share of them too. Pike are a fantastic eating fish in my opinion, but one of the hardest things to do is get a nice clean boneless fillet because of their bone structure. I’ve tried several methods and none of them are as easy as the one you’re about to see. Check out this dead simple 5 fillet method I’ve never seen before.

LifeStraw- First Impressions

Eartheasy contacted me recently to tell me about a revolutionary and life saving invention called LifeStraw. LifeStraw is a simple, portable, water filtration device that filters out harmful bacteria and diseases from your drinking water. While I’ll be testing my LifeStraw on lakes and streams here in Canada, it takes on a whole new meaning when you consider the impact this device can have in developing countries where clean water is not readily available.

“Until now these filters have mainly been given away through aid groups after such disasters like the Haitian earthquake and in chronically poor countries like Mozambique and Myanmar. Nearly a million of the family-size LifeStraw have been donated in Kenya alone this year. In exchange, the company will receive carbon credits for reduced emissions from wood-burning fires often used to boil water.” NY Times

The LifeStraw retails for $19.95 and will filter 99.9999% of waterborne bacteria and 99.9% of waterborne protozoan parasites from 1000 liters of drinking water. Eartheasy is donating one straw for every 10 sold and all sales help support the manufacturer who offer LifeStraws at a reduced rate (or even free) to developing countries. Aid groups looking to buy LifeStraws in bulk can contact info@eartheasy.com for more info.

Pure Alaska Salmon Review

I published this full-length review of Pure Alaska Salmon’s wild-caught canned Alaskan Salmon yesterday, but I’ve been so busy I forgot to post it to the main page. So here it is, I hope you’re hungry!

It’s been a while since we had a post as mouth-watering as this one, that’s normally Adam Guy’s arena these days. But despite the fact that I’m a good cook and a fisherman it’s not all that often that I’m eating fish at home. In fact, the last time I had a diet where I was eating fish consistently was in La Paz, where we ate Dorado, Snapper, and even Marlin and Tuna. Even then I left most of the cooking to friend and chef Micheal Leary. Still, I think I came up with a few really nice dishes made with Pure Alaska Salmon’s wild-caught canned salmon, like these fish cakes.
