In the Canyon

         We went with Berry and Beth Stratton and a driver, Michael, to get out of the city on Saturday.  We went up into a canyon by a reservoir where we could hike a little and enjoy a fresh fish lunch in the early spring sunshine.

    Our driver oversees operations as our fish is headed for the kitchen.  He asks if we want it served raw or cooked.  We went with cooked.  This is a favorite thing for locals to do.      Michael told us, "You can't read about it in books."  In other words, it isn't advertised for tourists.

The fish is immediately killed and cleaned

Catching the fish Michael chose for us.
