Rainbow trout gift
Buddy around the corner caught these yesterday a couple miles south of our homes. Dropped off what must be at least 3 pounds of filets for me this morning. Gonna be some great eatin'! Big Grin





We joke that if the grocery stores close we would be okay with the wildlife here. Smile

If those showed up at my house, they'd be on the Weber kettle in minutes. They look very yummy. Enjoy!

I cheat and use Paul Prudhomme's Redfish Blackening on mine. Easy and tasty. Those are great eatin' size.

With a blacked out CV-19 facemask, how do you know that was your buddy? Smile

Oh and pan fried trout with a crust of spicey corn meal is/was the way to go.

Sorry. I though this was another one of those 'what to get my ____' posts. I'm not sure what to get a rainbow trout...maybe salt & pepper?

So that's a thing? Or is it a fish fry?

All he told me is that he used an ultra-light setup and those fish were fighting fools even jumping out of the strong current water. Smile

If the moving water was Rapid Creek, the fisherman must have had his lawyer with him to interpret the myriad of regulations, catch and release, flies only, barbless hooks, etc. with different stretches of the creek! Razz
Nice catch, great gift, fantastic eating!
