I'm having trouble telling if the log is an alder or the top of a Grand Fir. If the log is alder, then yes they are.

I'm not allowed to further heat the house by cooking inside, so I tried Paella on the induction element outside.
This one has some Hali cheeks, some hali from today's processing, and 1/4th of what I think is a good sized Petrale sole.
Was yummy.

those petrales are some of the tastiest fish on the coast, got a few 24” plus ones mooching live herring off epsom last year, which i could really dial them in
 
Salad from the garden with feta, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Charcoal grilled Valdes Island Quillback and tenderloin. Baked potatoes topped with smoked paprika and butter. And a red wine that turned out to be pleasant surprise. Heaven. I love summer!

I've never done a rockfish that way. Will have to try it, thanks!

Once grilled (on charcoal of course) try drizzling it with minced garlic and chopped parsley in olive oil. Had a rockfish served like this to me in a restaurant in Croatia a few years ago and have only prepared them this way since. The skin (scales thouroughly removed) is like candy. And picking out the bones and getting your fingers dirty is almost as much fun as eating crabs.

I take a cleaned rockfish and insert sharp knife at front of body cavity along spine like you would when filleting. But do not go all the way through and break the skin. Basically fillet without breaking the skin on the back. Cut the bottom jaw with scissors and it just opens up like a book. I leave the spine in on one side.You could try to get fancy and remove the spine but really no need. Enjoy!
