Pan-Seared Fish with Fresh Fruit Salsa

I did this one on the HuntFishCook show with snapper and grouper. Just about any fish will do. Use my salsa recipe as a guideline only. Use whatever in-season fruit looks best in the store. In the picture, we used mostly mangoes, which is your typical go-to fruit salsa addition.
