So LAST Saturday.... we took our mom and dad and Sarge's Peeps... to the Linesville Fish Hatchery...
THESE are the most EXCITING and Delicious Pictures... they came at the END of the tour... where Rangers were showing how to FILET Fish... and then COOKER them UP... THIS was CRAPPIE.... butt that is the kind of Fish... Not at all how it TASTED....
We were going NUTS fur it...
MORE DAD.... FASTER...
Don't break them TOO small...
OKAY this is one of the Fish that they got Eggs from...
These are the Eggs...
Then they bring the Daddy fish and ....
he gets Squeezed/Milked over the eggs...
THEN.... they use a TURKEY FEATHER to Mix everything together...
These Tanks are filled with fish Waiting to be "MILKED" and others waiting to be RELEASED back into the Lakes and Streams...of the area..
There is a big Tall ... two Story high TOWER that has LOTS of different types of local fish in it... it was like watching Fish TV
THESE tanks Also hold fish waiting to be Milked... and those thingys in the Middle are cylinders full of Fertilized Eggs in different stages... and when they HATCH they will be put into these tanks... once the BIG fish are released..
These are what CRAPPIE look like.... BEFORE they are Filets and Cookered up and EATEN...
The were in the TALL TANK
THIS picture is looking DOWN INTO the Tall tank from the UPSTAIRS of the building... the fish MAY LOOK SMALL butt really they are Way down at the Bottom and just Look Little.
THIS will make you SHIVER.... THAT is Sarge's MOM... holding....
A SNAKE.... a REAL LIVE ONE.... not a stuffie or stuffs...
This is a picture of a Small pawt of the big LAKE where Lots of the fish will be let loose...
Another Fish TV picture...
This Guy USED to be Alive... butt now he is sort of Stuffied... butt STILL not somethingy we would want to play with... HE is a Snappering Turtle Just fur Looking at and learning about...
THIS is a TIMBER RATTLER... HE is POISON... We don't EVER want to see one of those in OUR YARD...
It was a very INTERESTING... and Delicious Visit...
