My Grandpa used to take us fishing at the creek, and he made us scale and eat every sort of fish we caught. I guess we did throw back the tiniest ones, but I am sure there were some minnows in there. He ate the snapping turtles we sometimes caught too, but I never got in on that. Bout the only fish he wouldn't eat much was carp. Fed those to the pigs. You never saw anything so funny as a big old sow grab a carp in its jaws and run with it to get away from the other pigs that wanted some. They just chomped them down.
