  6. 1. Yes, I like mild-tasting fish in small doses.
    2. Yes, I have gone fishing in a river and a lake.

    4. No, I don't know how.
    5. I don't cook fish at home. I only eat it in restaurants.

    I appear to be the only one who has never gone fishing. Seems strange since I grew up in a town on the Mississippi River. I attribute that to the fact that my parents rarely ate fish and never cooked it.
