After spending most of 2011 doing financials, going to shows and writing I took Sandy out to catch a dinner fish. We had to troll down to the bottom of the trench and make the turn to get one. But, boy are these fish great on the barbecue for dinner! What a lovely way to go and have lunch on the water. A sunny warm late winter day with no wind. It reminds me of why I fell in love with this fishery in the first place.

Silver Horde's Kingfisher Lite spoons with the little squid on it right on the bottom in 210 feet of water at 1.5 mph is what caught this little guy.

That is what laketrout meat looks like? How do they taste? I have always heard they dont eat very well, but that meat looks tasty to me!

The closest thing to our Lower Basin Lakers is ocean caught sockeye or Rufus triploids. Lakers reputation for poor eating quality comes from the Great Lakes and Canadian Shield lakers that eat other fish for a living. It was delicious.

Hey ya Matt, I second Anton when he says they are delicious. I trim off all the dark fat layer under the skin, rub a little lemon pepper on them and look out grill, here it comes.
