There’s something fishy going on here!

Calvin Christian students have done some interesting Independent Projects, ranging from technology, to hands on arts and crafts, to a business plan for airsoft, to a popular sport here in Minnesota. What sport you ask? Good old outdoor fishing. Three sophomores at CCHS put their heads together and came up with a project centered on fishing. Not the sport itself, but rather the impact it has on the Minnesotan culture, the economy, and the sport of fishing. Recently the fishing opener began, and people are grabbing their tackle boxes and poles to get out and enjoy the spring. Sophomores Matt Johnson, Ian Krueger, and Karl Ludwig are prepping their gear to venture forth and answer the questions they have for this project. But how did this project come about? Matt Johnson, presented the idea to Ian and Karl, and the idea stuck, or in fishing terms, they got hooked, pun intended. These three friends are getting outdoors and enjoying the weather, the sport, and finding out how it all ties into the Minnesotan culture and economy.  

Below is a video that is going to be part the group's presentation. It demonstrates how to fillet and skin a fish, so watch accordingly.
