King's Inn Tartar Sauce Recipe
In the November issue of Texas Highways, writer Helen Bryant takes readers to the Famous! Kings Inn in Riviera, whose recipe for tartar-sauce remains a closely guarded secret. We can’t claim to have the official recipe, but these—adapted from versions we found online—comes pretty close. The first one makes enough for Coxey’s army; adapt and adjust as you (and your hungry crowd) wish.
1 quart mayonnaise
1 quart Miracle Whip
10 eggs, hard-boiled, peeled
saltine crackers (3 tubes or 3/4 box)
5 stalks celery
jalapeño pepper, seeded (to taste)
2 1/2 ounces Worcestershire sauce
salt (to taste)
2 small bell peppers, seeded
1 (4 ounce) jar pimientos
1 (2 ounce) can anchovy fillets
1 large onion
fresh garlic (to taste)
Finely chop celery, jalapeños, bell peppers, anchovies, garlic, and onion. Add salt and Worcestershire sauce. Mash the hard-boiled eggs together with the crackers, then mix all ingredients together with the mayonnaise and Miracle Whip.

Mullet and croaker are bait. Black drum tends to be wormy - you have to be careful.
heck I thought tilapia were nothing but bait until about 10 years ago when every restaurant started serving it. To this day I’ve never eaten it due to that fact. I think tilapia is the bait of choice over on Braunig and Calaveras
Tilapia is ok if you catch it somewhere in the wild but I don't trust those farm raised fish operations. I've heard too many bad stories from those places, especially the foreign ones. They put chicken cages over the water to let them crap in the water to feed the fish. Then when the fish get sick from the nasty water they dump a bunch of anitbiotics in it and then sell the fish to you. No thanks.
I used to eat tilapia until I saw one.....ugliest fish I ever saw.
At lake El Salto in Mexico, I was catching tilapia on rapala shad raps as well as spinner baits. My dad couldn't believe it. I kept nailing these huge tilapia and every time I would catch one he'd make me take a photo of it with whatever bait I'd caught it with, still hooked in its mouth. I even caught one on a watermelon super fluke. I finally asked dad why he wanted all these photos and he said "I know a bunch of fellas that think tilapia only eat plants, and I'm planning on taking all their money with bets..". Savage.
If I catch then I will eat it, I never go out and eat seafood in a Restaurant, cause you never know how old that fish is..no frozen fish here..
