Post by: Hillbilly270 on May 04, 2009, 10:54:02 AM: 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.

Post by: wamuledeer on May 04, 2009, 12:44:43 PM: 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.

Post by: jackelope on May 04, 2009, 12:52:42 PM: 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?
