Catching fish

Fish as  a food item in Bengali culture, I had a good relation with a fisher family. They had no child, I was favorite to them, our ancestral home is in central Kolkata it is one of the area  where fisher men live. They have fishing trawler and big business person.

The fisher couple was poor but they had big heart. I called them 'Dada Babu' and Parul di, the fish item was always with chilli, Dada Babu was an employee of a fish stall at New Market. Kolkata. He had to visit Firpo Restaurant of Chowringhee area for delivering fish. I got bread of Firpo some time Puri and ' Haloua', sweet item at New Market. The Bhetki and lobster were the main item of their fish stall.

During my service in Indian Army, I had the chance to catch fish from pond in Rajasthan and river near Pakistan Border. The fishing net was at Border Security Force at Atwala of Jammu Division, we were four went for fishing at afternoon of 1979 winter. We had caught about 6 kg of fish of different species and size. We had a nice evening with tasty food item.
