Gone Fishin’

May the holes in your net be no larger than the fish in it.
~Irish Blessing

The ECHO interns got a taste of the fisherman’s life on Monday. Waterlogged and muddy, they seined first the duck pond, then the pond by the shop, pulling out nearly 100 fish. Some of the tilapia were over a foot long and weighed nearly 4 pounds. After practicing their netting skills, they learned the art of filleting the catch. And, what better way to finish off the day? With a fish fry!
