Imagining a little porch dancing or something 'southern' going on. Looks nice and warm where you live Jim. Nice.

lol Richard, making sausage and skinning catfish are two things best not being witness to!

Geeezzzzz! Thanks Jim, I am not uninitiated anymore I tell ya! I guess I asked for an education, ask here and ye shall  receive. That’s seriously attitude! My dad would take my brother and I catfish fishing. Never knew how he cleaned them, but not this way. Could explain the catfish looked like hamburger when served. Well, I watched the catfish video and didn’t think about a fiddle the whole time. Thanks Jim, you are an  Encyclopedia of all things.

Thanks Richard. I have yet to make a plug in fiddle. I'd rather struggle with frustrations of acoustic nuances. Yeah, the title has something but my fishing friends tell me that's the best way to skin a catfish!  Just ask any OkieNoodler!

The title has a bit of attitude, I like that Jim! I had to watch a second time, I thought your new great looking fiddle was plugged in! That’s a great sound with a smaller box! Have a great time Saturday at the festival, you’ll knock em out!
