LOL yes. I never sore one of those either.
Another fun thing in the spring: I grew up next to a creek that emptied into Irondequoit Bay maybe 2 miles downstream. It was all woods between my house and close to the bay.
In the spring, suckers would swim from the bay upstream to spawn. We'd walk maybe a mile downstream from my house and spear the crap out of them and throw them on the banks. It was just a bloodlust rampage for us.
My dad got wind of it and told me to bring some back, so we did. Having been a young man during the Depression, he had a good sense of what it was like to not have enough food. He would clean a bunch of them up every year and put them in the freezer.
They were bony but okay to eat in the spring before they sat around in the mud during the summer.
