Bro has a 4 bedroom farm house with basement on a pond on 360 acres on the county line. Land was homesteaded by his wife's grandfather. He was quite the sportsman so it used to be well stocked with 3 ponds. Not so much any more. Stopped getting stocked when the grandfather passed. Grandkids are more into 4 runners and swimming than hunting a fishing. It takes a lot of work to keep up with wildlife management.

When in HS and College the old man was still alive and there were no buildings. Took dates out there catch and cook fresh fish and chips. It was amazing. Could have the girls cast a line in and reel in a fish as fast as she could while I started a fire. Filleted them, battered, and deep fried with home made fries in cast iron dutch oven on an open fire. Learned to scale and fillet fish when I was 4. Learned to deep fry with a dutch oven in Boy Scouts. Much better than skillet fried. Made for a tasty and fun picnic.

Oh man...now I'm hungry for fish and chips.
