    You have taught me so many things just watching you both.
    I want to share..... my Aunt taught me how to bone pan fish after it's cooked. Remove the dorsal fin. Just pull it backwards. Then the other fins. Use your fork of knife to devide the fish along one side of the back bone. Just lay one whole side of the fish down on your plate. Now lift the back bone with the ribs attached off the other side of the fish. All the bones should be removed in one piece. Enjoy!!
    😃my Aunt grew up fishing the back waters of the Mississippi in Minnesota. My Mom and her sister caught and ate a lot of fish. Bless you both!

    Buckville has a very interesting history! My wifes family ( her grandparents lived there before the lake was built). The church and cemetery were relocated so that they wouldn't be covered by the lake. I have mentioned it before, Hickory Nut Mountain Vista on the South side of the Lake, just off of Hwy 270 is one the best views in the whole state. There is a primitive camp area there too. If you haven't been there.......you are missing something. I would love to see your video production from that area! We will be camping at Lake Ouachita next week after Memorial Day!!! Love that place.

    Hey Guys 👋🏼
    This video was awesome 🤩. The other video was great 😊.
    Have you ever thought of a hauler for for kayaks because it really looks good when you have everything you need for camping 🏕. Maybe you guys can get an inflatable boat for equipment and food so your food won’t squashed. You guys can use a bed trays with legs for preparing your food. Kelly needs her little kitchen station for this kind of campaign. Come on hubby hook it up
    *Happy Camping *

    I moved to central Arkansas about 4 years ago and have loved it so much. Been camping and kayaking all over. One place I haven’t seen yall go to is the delta area. I go in a fishing trip with my FIL family twice a year to the St. Francis National Forest. We tent by beer creek lake. There’s MTB and all too, seems like an underrated area in the state for outdoors but it’s honestly great. Check out the area if want something new.

    We kayaked down the Ouachita River in the spring (very cold) 4 years ago. It was so beautiful! We fell in love with the area, especially after visiting Poca and Jasper and seeing the Buffalo River. We actually came back at the end of May that year and kayaked down the Buffalo. I decided then, I could retire there lol (from East Tennessee) I’m currently looking for a place to spend a few days for our anniversary on July 1. Do you think this area where you camped would be crowded at that time? We really like secluded areas and try to avoid those big crowds. The site you had was absolutely dreamy 😍

    So you get all the little bones out by bending the head back, and lifting it at a 90 degree angle, off the bottom half of the fish, gently. Then put it down on the other side, and lift the head spine and all the bones off the other side by lifting the head back 90 degrees and gentle bending the spine and bones off the other side, using a fork to ease the flesh off helps. Just go slow and gentle, and you get a boneless fillet.
