I prefer to use shark or another dense meat fish in my chili. Sheepshead is another acceptable fish. Just a reminder that the longer you cook the stuff the tougher the fish has to be. The only pepper I use is the Datil. Heat, but allows the flavors of the fish to come through. For those that can't grow the Datils, use a tad of Jim Campbells smokey hab powder. Nobody smokes a hab like Jimbo. Must be all that laze time at the Fire Station. Fly line in the water with a pocket full of Datils momo
