there werent any eggs in it when i gutted it.  Just a bunch of nasty liquid came gushing out of it.  it was gross.  the guts didn't look very good either.  I normally throw trout back but my dad wanted to smoke it.  I think he should use it for crab bait.  The only trout i keep nowadays are the sea-run blueback that run up the Kah.  they are a blast to catch.

That looks like a triploid trout. Hybrid trout that only eat and don't spawn. They usually taste very good, at least the ones I catch at Rufus Wood do. They have an extremely high fat content.

i thought about that but his fins are in real good shape and he has an adipose fin, which doesn't mean much i guess. could be a holdover triploid. trip's fins get beat up when they are in net pens or hatchery ponds.

What's a sea-run blueback?  Not a sea-run cuttthroat?

Nice rainbow! Did it have much fight for a heavy weight?
