Go fishing for your own fish?

[KO896]

Do you go fishing to get your own fish to eat? My dad likes to fish at least once each summer and then he fries up the fish and it's really good. I don't like it other times of the year though because I'm not a big fish eater. I tried to do fishing, but wow, I get heat stroke and sun stroke too quickly...and it's not something I'm into anyway. I've never cleaned a fish!

I usta, but not lately.

I think cleaning fish might be something that you have to grow up with.

No. When I want fish, I just go to Captain D's.

Never have I ever. I've gone fishing a few times over the years, but it was just for fun, and you put the fish back.

 

[MamaFrankie]

No because I don't eat fish.

My dad took me and my sister to a cabin for a vacation and his uncle and aunt rented a cabin next to us. They would all go fishing and when they got back, you'd see the tree with the chopped heads of the fish nailed to it as if it were a trophy display case. So gross.

Did you guys get just simply 'ate up' with the flies that would attract?

There was a lot of land, and the spot where they put the fish heads was far away from the dock and the cottages.

I agree, freshly caught fish is fantastic! I'd love to eat it, but the actual waiting around to catch one? Definitely not my thing.
I've gone fishing a few times with friends who love it, and it was enjoyable as a rare event. I think I'd find it too boring to do by myself, though.
That being said, if someone handed me a fish they just caught, I would happily cook and eat it. And yes, I can even clean it!😉
