Dinner seems like its going to be crappie.
(now you have to realize that some of us up here pronounce 'crappie' as 'crap-ee' which is certainly more correct than some of you others who say 'craw-pee.')

But Cat What time is dinner? Mmm Being a time zone behind us, most has already been devoured. It is crappie (craw-pee here) spawning season, so this is the time of year I try to remove as many as possible from my main pond. Neighbors put them in that pond long before we bought this place. They are one of the few types of fish that I scale, rather than skin. The scaled fillets get marinated for about 30 minutes in kosher salt, garlic powder, black pepper, cayenne pepper, Worchestishire sauce, and a little water. I coat the fillets by shaking them in a plastic shopping bag that has a mixture of a half-cup flour to a tablespoon of corn starch for about every 8-10 fillets. The corn starch really seals the fillet while making the coating very crispy. The crispy fillets remain very moist below the coating. This time of year I always have a box of sprouting potatoes. Tonight I took two very large potatoes and cut off the eyes (sprouts). I cut the the remaining potato carcasses into small French-fry size. The ptatoes got cooked in the Canola oil I used to fry the fillets. A few weeks ago, I harvested some of my horse radish roots. They were skinned, ground, and put into a vinegar-salt solution. Tonight I made a "cocktail" sauce from commercial ketchup and my horse radish sauce. The fish and potatoes got dipped in this cocktail sauce as they headed to the tongue. Now I'm full and ready for a good nights sleep. In the morning I'll plant the potato sprouts. I also kept the fish heads/filet skeletons. They are brining in a salt solution overnight. Tomorrow I'll turn them into a fish stew that my Finnish mother called mojakka (pronounced moy-aw-kaa). Typical reaction to Mojakka.

Definitely Awesome! I like my BG, CP and CC fried on the bone. Everything else gets filleted unless the wife is cooking a Thai dish, then even the head gets left on a nice WE, SMB, etc. I will definitely try yer breading recipe! Thanks for the tip. Should I assume my bottle of yer horse radish sauce is in the mail?

BG bite been steady fishing with waxies and teardops on Al's ice rig around the dock. I'm thinking this is a female BRES - around 7" and in pretty good shape.

Wow..a female BRES. Very cool!

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1) And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1) Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT? PB answer: It depends.

I know, if you look at it for a while it gets kinda trippy, huh? Just a little enhancement in order to bring her to life.

Still a very pretty picture TJ even without the enhanced color saturation. Here is one I caught last night. (original picture) A little enhanced version.
