We went on a day trip to a town called Mikolajki (pronounced meeko why key) and I entered a shop that sold fish just for the fun of it.
Here is part of the menu from the restaurant we ate at so that you can see the names of the fish.
And here are the various species:

Our Baba would smoke Eel, that Dedo caught in the canals of Indiana.
They were "Bohunks" from around that region. SFandH - 6-12-2021 at 02:25 PM
"Bohunks" - I haven't heard that term in ages. Bohemian + Hungarian?BajaBlanca - 6-12-2021 at 08:57 PM
and I never heard the term bohunks before!
Baba means an older woman in Polish and I was once called a Baba Yaga by a woman who was carrying something heavy and she thought I was taking too
long to get out of her way! Old Hag LOL

Around the south side of Chicago, it was one of the nicer terms used to describe Gypsies.
Dedo was a "finger", he would pick your pocket and hand you back your stuff. Amazing card tricks too.
Keep your head on a swivel Blanca, that's were he learned it all. BajaBlanca - 6-14-2021 at 12:23 AM
Thanks for that note of advice. No one told me to abreojos in
Barcelona and we lost my ipad in that ordeal.
