As younger man.. .When the trees would flower in the Spring I would go sucker gigging at night with a Coleman lantern and a gig! Sucker were spawning up the creeks.. We would walk up all the feeder streams that ran into the non trout rivers and or creeks.. Nothing like the feel of the gig.. Made me think this is probably what the Pa Native Americans experienced. I wonder how some of our head lights would work now.. Especially all the ones that have a white light? I'm going to have to do this again some Spring... At night the creek would be filled with hundreds of suckers going up these small streams from the main creek...

I never knew anyone ate suckers!

The key to suckers is early spring. My Dad loved them and preferred them to trout.

the native Americans said that God put all the bones in the suckers, to slow you down to savor the flavor... I've eaten a bunch of them over the years, steamed, fried and smoked and never had any complaints about them...

I can only agree whole heartedly with this statement... most anytime if you can get them outta cold trout waters...
