FAMOUS FISHING QUOTES:
• "Fishing is a delusion entirely surrounded by liars in old clothes." ~ Don Marquis
• "If fishing is a religion, fly fishing is high church." ~ Tom Brokaw
• "Fly fishing may be a very pleasant amusement; but angling or float fishing I can only compare to a stick and a string, with a worm at one end and a fool at the other." ~ Samual Johnson
TROUT ALMANDINE:
Ingredients:
• 6 trout filets (1/2 lb each)
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1/4 cup blanched almonds
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons butter
• paprika
• salt
• parsley
Directions:
Put filets on skewers and place on a rack over the grill. Brush with butter. Cover your cooker or make a tent out of aluminum to cover the fish. Cook without turning, 3-4 inches from source of heat until filets are cooked, about 10 minutes. Remove to a heated platter and sprinkle with salt and paprika.
While filets are on the grill, melt 2 tablespoons of butter and add almonds. Pan fry and stir over low heat until almonds are golden and butter is lightly browned. Remove from heat, stir in lemon juice, then spoon over filets. Garnish platter with parsley. Serve with a fresh tossed salad, sweet potatoes and dinner rolls.
ABOUT RAINBOW TROUT:
Rainbow trout, once they've lived wild for a while, will feed almost exclusively on aquatic insects (mayflies, caddis, midges, etc.) and terrestrial insects (ants, beetles, grasshoppers, etc.).
In some waters, the trout may feed largely on crustaceans like scud (small freshwater shrimp) and cressbugs (aquatic "rolly pollies"). Even the largest rainbow trout will continue to feed on tiny bits of food with the occasional minnow thrown in, if it's an easy target, but extra large rainbows may also become scavengers. This gives them the great amount of protein they need to maintain their size, but also offers them some protection from fisherman.
Hatchery fish, however, will bite on any number of items (i.e. corn, marshmallows, dough bait, etc.), mainly because they were raised on lumps of food thrown at them. After stocking, it will take some time for them to experiment with natural food sources before they give up their preference for the hand-fed cafeteria style of feeding.
It seems as though all trout, however, have some genetically imprinted desire to eat fish eggs. In virtually every trout stream, a good old fashioned "glo-bug" or the more new-fangled "glu-bug" can work wonders when nothing else will.
