skinny Posted May 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 well it wasn't my first trout of the season just my first real big one I kept it. with a meal on weekend in mind or if the smoker makes some real progress it might get inside it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBW Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 better get working on that smoker then! remember, make a good brine and it will take 24 hours of marinating before you smoke it for the best results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure you know, but it won't be fresh after tomorrow (latest). So if you're planning a weekend meal, take Billy Bob's advice. Slayer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinny Posted May 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 well by the sounds of it it will be going in freezer for a day or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crappieperchhunter Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 Your first decent bow...congrats. IMHO the best thing you could do would be release it. Bow's to me are pretty much inedible....probably my least favourite freshwater fish to eat of all the species I have caught. Again nice catch and if you do eat it I hope you enjoy it. I personally do not enjoy them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GBW Posted May 11, 2011 Report Share Posted May 11, 2011 well by the sounds of it it will be going in freezer for a day or so as per PM, make sure it is not frozen when in the brine for the smoker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
