Trout Streamside
RW Here,
A poster on my Streamside Snacks thread gave me another subject for a new thread. How many folks did, have done, or will do a trout streamside for an occasional lunch?
Back in the 60's and 70's I used to do it quite often before catch and release came into vogue. I still kill about half a dozen trout annually for a special meal or streamside lunch if the place to build a small fire is safe and if the spirit moves me. When I plan to do it I usually carry a small salt shaker filled with half salt and half pepper for the task. If you've never done it and you like fish, you haven't lived until you've eaten a fresh brook trout grilled over a small fire about 15 minutes out of an ice-cold stream.
Later, RW
