The Twelve Days of Fishmas

An Angler’s Carol

Dec 10, 2021

--

On the 12th Day of Fishmas my true love gave to me . . .

Twelve drumfish drumming

Eleven stripers eeling

Ten kings a leaping

Nine oysters setting

Eight trout a milting

Seven shad migrating

Six salmon spawning

Five dor-a-do

Four arctic char

Three tautog

Two cuttlefish

And a clam bed in the wind’s lee

Merry Fishmas from the Four Fish team…
