Abstract:
In this article the author is talking about a Fish Cookery and Preparation Class for Women that is ran through the NC Wildlife Resources Commission’s Pechmann Fishing Education Center in the town of Fayetteville. This class is taught to help women or individuals with learning how to scale, pan dressing, skinning, and filleting fish. After learning these skills the participants were tested by working with the commission staff and volunteers to make five different dishes. The purpose of this event was to teach anglers with fundamental skills to be able to take the fish they fetch then transform them into a meal. This class consisted differing levels of experience from new anglers to anglers with years of experience.
