A few weeks ago I told my 78 yr. old neighbor I'd never cleaned a
fish. He said he'd be glad to teach me but we had no fish. He fishes
almost daily but he broke his leg and just got out of the nursing
home. Saturday he came over and said he had 9 crappies from the night
before and would be willing to teach me. The first two weren't too
good but by the time I was done I had it down pretty good. He gave me
all the fillets to take home. I blackened them and made po-boy
sandwiches that were awesome. I guess some fish are a bit different
to filet but I'm no longer intimidated to try to learn more. Fish
that's fresh out of the water is so much better than store bought
stuff. What a treat. Louise loves to fish but it's something we've
never done together. I don't mind it as long as there's a cooler of
beer and friends around. When I came home with the fish she asked if
I now know how to do it. Her immediate response was "lets go get
licenses." I see lots of fresh fish in the near future.

Am I the only one who never cleaned a fish before?
