This one is for you Jim! Sea Bass and Scallop Grill with Mango Guacamole

I recently discovered grilling Sea Bass from one of our best friends, Jim.  He has lost a significant amount of weight, partially due to switching to fish most nights for dinner.  We had some last weekend and I realized why he's been eating sea bass for dinner almost every night.  The texture and flavor is so buttery and decadent yet light at the same time (if that makes any sense).  Fish never leaves me with that heavy, weighted feeling I get from steak.  

Could fresh sea bass be replacing my first love, seared tuna?  No, I think it is possible to have TWO loves.  (At least when it comes to seafood).
