Just wondering how many fisherman out there like to harvest trout every once in a blue moon. Now that I got into fly fishing years ago it seems that my consumption has gone down. I don't mind eating trout and I always get into trouble each summer on our family camp-out because I release everything. I do believe in conservation but if i need to get something into my tummy there is always those beaver ponds with thousands of brookies in them. I have read articles about high elevation beaver ponds that hold thousands of brookies and they inform us that its ok to harvest them to help control some of the population. After reading some of these articles it makes me feel a little better as far as consumming brookies...... or should I. Just wondering what everybody else thinks about the issue. If you do harvest from time to time what recipes do you use.
If I do harvest I would take five brookies no longer than five inches...... gut them, cut the heads off, a little salt, pepper, and lemon. Fry whole and eat them bones and all. ;D
