Some Catfish n Okra

[cowgirl]

You had me at Catfish.

Thanks Frank! I'm a true catfish fan too. :grin:

Dang it Jeanie...If only I'd a known I coulda come and we woulda had twice as many catfish in yer basket...Oh well...I know it was good eating...


When it comes to okra I like to pick em small...No more than 3 inches...Maybe 4...That way the seeds are still small and tender...But you know that...



The green velvet seeds shouldn't be hard to find...I think they had em at Walmart this spring...When I grew em they were 13 feet tall...Tough pickin the end of the season...I stick with the Clemson now and still cant reach the tops on some of em...


Good to see ya again girl...

Good to see ya Craig! It's been awhile. Hope all is well in your neck of the woods. :grin: I'm sure you could have brought in a ton more catfish than I did. I didn't always have bait on my hook. lol I was relaxing. :laugh:
Thanks for the info on the velvet okra seeds! Sounds like they get pretty tall.
Maybe I'd need to plant them beside a porch or deck so I could reach the pods. lol I'm 5'6" but doubt I could reach high enough to harvest them with out standing on something. I do like the idea that they stay tender, longer. I get behind in picking sometimes.
Hope you're doing well. Good to see ya! :grin:

Our daughter was out of town this past weekend, so the wife and I tried out a local "home-cooking" buffet restaurant. They had catfish on the bar, and pretty darned tasty, too. If I hadn't gotten my fix then, I would be climbing the walls right now after seeing your cook. Outstanding!!

Ron, that sounds excellent! I'd hit a buffet too if it had catfish on the menu. Thanks! :grin:

A friend of mine planted the Louisianna variety this year.His plants grew over 14 ft tall.It is some fine okra.Skinnier than the other pods.I like to pick em at no more than 3 inches long,2 is better and fry them whole.

Some folks fry them whole, but smash them first. I haven't tried either methods yet, but think it would be fine.
