Maybe a side dish of some kind, or an appetizer or two.  Might not hurt to bring some breakfast snacks like doughnuts or pastries, usually someone cooks something for breakfast, but some of the guys get out early and might want something quick before heading out.

I can see if the Asian market in Columbia has those oyster mushrooms again and do fried mushrooms on Friday along with the sculpin fry.

So when you batter and fry sculpin fillets and oyster mushrooms together is it possible (after they are cooked) to visually tell one apart from the other?  Just wondering in case anyone has allergic reactions to eating sculpin - would not want anyone with that condition to accidently eat a sculpin fillet when they thought they were getting a mushroom.

Oyster mushrooms lack pectoral fins.  They are prominent on sculpins.  It's a sure tell.

Thats why you leave the head and fins on. Crispy chip like fins and crunchy eyes. Can't confuse that with a mushroom. So we'll be good 😂.

        Sculpins swim around in the skillet. Mushrooms not so much,

I'll check the freezer for any stray mushrooms too.  Seems like there should be a bag in there somewhere.

Wish that I could bring the chicken mushrooms. I'm already paying to bring my rods. So can't bring a cooler of mushrooms as well.

@BilletHead I'll have to pick up Don's when I get there as well. I have not found that batter mix here.. yet. I hope that some store around here sells that brand.

I can handle a couple of boxes of Don's, and happy to do it.

Rick - I should be able to handle the Don's. I wouldn't mind if you tag teamed to make your cocktail sauce.
