Fishing and fillet ... with girls

Fino took his brother-in-law and his older neice and nephew fishing the other day.


They found a quiet spot off Route 114 in Standish.

It turned out that C. caught the fish.

They caught two small fish on this particular trip and our nephew V. decided to fillet one of the fish for dinner that night. Unfortunately for him, he had to contend with not only the fish, but his two youngest sisters along with G. and L. begging him to 'save the other fish' so they could keep it.

But they didn't win that argument and suprisingly, all of them decided to stay and watch V. fillet the fish. 

While sitting at the counter with V., G. decided to recount a video clip she had seen on TV about a man about to eat a fish head before he noticed the fish's gills still moving (it was an animated telling with arm gestures).

There were a hefty number of "EEEEEEWWWWWWS" and shrieks during the fillet process and all but our niece S. ducked when V. chopped the head off (with a dull knife so it took a couple of tries to do it - not a pleasant sight). S. was basically horrified with how that happened.

Then L. had an idea about what to do with the headless fish.

And I wonder if you can guess who ended up with the head in the end ...
