Did only one show up, or did it bring the whole family? www.hoosierpondpros.com http://www.pondboss.com/subscribe.asp?c=4 3/4 to 1 1/4 ac pond LMB, SMB, PS, BG, RES, CC, YP, Bardello BG, (RBT & Blue Tilapia - seasonal).

It tasted like a really good steak. Very lean. Next I am going to smoke some and see how that turns out. I kept the tail too for a camping trip. They say that's a delicasy cooked over an open flame and then after removing the hide, just pulled apart. What if the hokie-pokie is what it's all about?

Many times. Muskrat meatloaf is almost identical to beef meatloaf (at least the recipe that I used). "Muskrat. It's what's for dinner." Hmmm. Maybe if I tried to sound more like Sam Elliott??? Actually, I find muskrat to be one of the best wild meats out there. Never had it in meatloaf, though... "Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!" 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've heard that beaver can be really tasty if it's cooked properly and I wish I had such cooking skills...

It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color. Without a sense of urgency, Nothing ever gets done.
