Did you manage to catch that roe from the one in the fourth pic?

 

we don't fish trout other than right at ice out or the odd time when a meal is appropriate. so the roe is of no use to us.

 

Question how did you remove the row of bones above the rib cage? Pull them out one by one?

 

when filleting, you can either cut around the rib cage or go through it then cut out the bones. they'll come off in one piece. a sharp knife is key.

 

Did you do the southeast asian stir fry/stew with them?

 

Not this time. JP treated us to a spicy maple syrup concoction on the BBQ that I am still drooling over. it was dynomite!

Outstanding guys :worthy:

I still can't believe how dark those enormous lakers are

 

Thanks for sharing

leechman: it's a particular strain of trout. we do get 'em in silver bullet form as well - this year the big guys/gals were darker specimens.

Raf - I must have been turkey hunting when this hit the board. Thanks for another great weekend of 'ice out trout'. It's always a hoot hanging out with you guys for a few days.

 

Good luck with the pike - hopefully your weather is better then ours.
