John loves fly fishing, primarily because if it’s done
right, you don’t have to take the fish home. You remove the hook quickly and
carefully, and both fish and fisherman can go about their business. Most of the
time he catches trout. On those rare occasions when he’s brought them home, I
clean, cook and eat them, because John doesn’t care for fish. Once, years ago,
he brought home a catfish. I had to watch YouTube videos to learn how to deal
with it. I made some very tasty catfish tacos, but it was SO MUCH WORK! Today is
National Catfish Day: a good day to consider catching and/or eating catfish. There
is a restaurant near us that serves cornmeal breaded catfish along with other
soul food. We could stop there and let someone else do the heavy lifting. But I
seriously doubt there’s anything on the menu that fits anyone’s diet.
