[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3841171, member: 15054"] I spent a lot of time fishing ponds and creeks and my first time to cook a fish on my own I was fishing with my friend of the same age. We were in 4th grade and back then we were not to be in the house during the day. You know the drill from parents. Get outside and play and be back before the street lights come on. We had both caught a nice perch and decided to cook them in the creek bed. We cleared a spot to sit and make a fire next to the creek. Had some good coals and a stack of twigs to feed the fire and it was time to cook our gutted fish. I cooked mine over the fire on a stick and my friend told me it will taste super fishy like that. He said you need to cook it in a mud pie! He scooped some mud up Not runny but stuff you could form into a ball. He flattened it out and laid the fish on it and made another big ball of mud and flattened it and put it on the fish covering the entire fish in a mud pie. Skin and scales and heads still on these fish just gutted. He placed his fish on the coals and we fed sticks into the fire. It was probably 10 or so minutes later my fish was starting to fall off the stick so it was done. He got 2 sticks and got his rock hard mud pie out of the coals and set it on the creek bank to cool. He picked it up and separated the 2 half's and the skin stuck to the upper half and the lower 1/2 was the plate and it had the flaky perch on it. My stick cooked fish was super fishy and his mud pie fish was not fishy at all and was cooked to perfection. We both caught and ate fish and crawdads almost daily. So 9 years old I could cook. Not a big deal feeding myself. Food and shelter and stay cleanish. I went to cut more cedar trees yesterday and got some shooting in and that same friend cooked some fish at noon that we ate. No stick cooked fish this time. Skillet fried. :) [/QUOTE]
