Today we are going to have smoked fish and mushed potatoes - I have the most fabulous parents-in-law! Yesterday we got to taste grandmother Anita's fish soup made of perch and whitefish. It helps a lot in the busy everyday-life to sit down and enjoy a meal someone else has made for you and your family and have your own hands and thoughts in something else.

This time Ahti the god of sea gave some mysterious fish as well. On the right there is a perch, on the left a ruffe and back in the middle that's a flounder. |
But
who are you?
It turned out to be a lump sucker, a fish I had never seen or even known we had around here. It is a quiet fellow who likes the bottom.

And in the belly side it had even a suction cup to stay there! |
The only fish I recognize is the flounder. I remember, many years ago, fishing for flounder.
VastaaPoistaWhere I live, the Gulf of Mexico is about 3 hours away. To catch flounder, we went out at night, with a lamp light and a spear. Walking through the shallow water, you can spear a flounder. They are delicious stuffed with crab meat and baked.
Kan det vara en sjurygg?
VastaaPoistaHej Annica! Ja, det är just den:)
