Cleaning the Catch!

Cleaning the Gaspergoo fish. This was taken at my hunting and fishing club: The Mallard Bay Hunting Club, which was established by my dad in 1955 when he was 15 years-young. It is in Gueydan, Louisiana (in Cameron Parish). There are lots of bayous, one huge lake (called Mallard Bay), and an extremely large marsh, which is where we hunt deer and ducks. The large lake is where we set hoop nets to catch fish for us to eat...primarily catfish. However, here I am seen cleaning a Gaspergoo fish, which is a freshwater scale fish that is related to the saltwater fish called a Drum fish. They have very tastey white meat, and their primary food prey is crawfish.
