The race to the bottom is nearly won, manifest by the tackle trade marketing LRF and species like wrasse now appearing on restaurant menu's with pollack transforming into the new cod.

I'm driven to jumping into my local "Lion's Mane" infested bay to go for an invigorating swim, now that should sharpen me up.

I'm told wrasse was eaten in the coastal west in bygone times. Older locals round me remember having it "boiled" in milk and onions - one man still enjoys them like that - and I've read about it being salted and dried. I've tried it myself baked in salt crust mediteranean style and it was surprisingly good except for the bones...
