How to make it

  • Cut off the head
  • If a large trout, cut in half
  • If large, run a knife along the bone cage and carefully cut bones from flesh.
  • Cut both sides, then using point of knife cut the back bone loose from the fish.
  • cut tail off
  • Season both sides.
  • Dredge in flour
  • Carefully place in oil and fry.
  • Cook over medium heat until golden brown on both sides.
  • Place on paper towel when done.
  • Cook the tail, it makes the best fried chip
  • A Ceasar salad was just perfect with the fish.
  • The pics looking straight done are by holding the camera high so the flash evens out and just guessing it is the right position. I am getting better at shooting the above shots without looking through the view finder. Sometimes I hit it just right and sometimes its takes 2-3 shots to get it right. I will get the hang of it soon, promise.

    Awwwwwwwwww YUMMMMM!! My late hub used to fish for Rainbow Trout. He used whole kernal corn for bait and 2 lb test with small gold hooks (No. 10, I think). Thanks for the recipe.

    Had to give you a five just for the beautiful pic's. Can't afford sea food anymore and I live in N.O. Price is just ridiculous.
