Dads cottage on Mullet lake close to the upper peninsular, we would get wall eye, my mother liked still fishing and broungt in more than 1 muskie, I was good at getting wall eye and my dad swore that were no damn fish in the lake...he never caught one that I remember. We always went trolling,. Ice fishing for sturgeon on rare occasion. Nothing like spending the day fishing...The only ones that grossed me out was cleaning cat fish from the river, nail them to the tree to skin and they talk to you. Freaky...but using blood suckers for cat fishing was great. Needle nose pliers to pick them up and one blood sucker would be good for 3 or 4 fish...ah well, I am too old now. But love to remember it....mom also brought in a great norther pike on one of her excursions onto the lake..

Perch is good tasting but if your not good at fillet them, they have too many bones. Went smelt dipping for the first time with dad when I was 8, after dark and walking the shore of lake Huron looking for the small inlets that they leave the lake to spawn....bucket net, and good flashlight Grew up at a great time of freedom that todays kids will never experience....thats sad :O(

Not fond of catfish. Now, cod and lobster and blue mussels off Prince Edward Island in the Gulf of St. Lawrence, well, we make a pilgrimage out there every once in a while.

New Glasgow Lobster Suppers - http://peilobstersuppers.com/ - never had better. A four pound lobster, with unlimited steamed blue mussels while waiting for it to cook, well, be prepared...

You like to dine fine on seafood. :O) I have only had lobster once, it was good, but expensive to buy in the store or restaurant....cod makes good fish and chips. I love blacken tuna, yummy. But was pleasantly surprised the first time I tried escargot...it was delicious...My oldest sister was a great lover of seafood, but lived in Maryland and always had fresh...her mother in law taught her how to cook all kinds....blue crab they would go out and catch themselves...The day her oldest daughter got married, one of their friends that run an oyster barge brought to the house a bushel basket of frest caught oysters. He sat in the back yard and shucked and I served. Had to get damn near drunk to take my first raw fresh oyster. It was tasty..Served in the half shell... They had a boat and spent more time sailing that living at home. (Chesapeake bay) She would brag that she could cook up a 4 course dinner in their little 2 burner galley...
