Saturday Fish Haul, Manetin

First they drain the pond, then they catch all the fish-- mostly the bottom feeding carp-- in nets. All the while, people are drinking beer and grog and milling about the pond banks, watching. Also caught: two snapping turtles, and three giant catfish. Then people line up to buy. You can have it alive, or bonked on the head, gutted and put into a flowery plastic bag. Carp lunch ensues.
