We usually eat it with the skin on. It's coated with flour and seasoning salt, so it tastes ok. Kind of crispy, very mild. If you don't like it, it usually peels off in almost one piece.

We're planning on going back up this Sept. and will have several new videos to post. Can't wait to try and hook that big one that got away last time.

Thanks for the great comments. These are smaller trout @ 1lb. We do cook them first, sometime pan fried or wrapped in foil and BBQ'ed . We then de-bone them.

GREAT videos on the trout. I have tried your

method on trout and it works great. But I was still finding some small bones in the thicker pieces of meat. Almost like bones that were free floating in the meat. Like ones that were not hooked to anything else. Is this normal for trout or did I do something wrong? Thanks.

[Panoramashooter]

Yes a very few are normal. But a lot of times they are so small we just chew them up.

Just made two whole trout for dinner earlier with some lemon and parsley, and was spitting out bones the entire meal. Wish I had seen this sooner!

trout are a species of fish that fall into a category of fish that contain pin bones. Tuna, whitefish, and salmon are also in this category.

This method is great for eating trout in the 1/2lb class and under. I find if you cook smaller trout, the pin bones normally dissolve. In the 1/2lb + trout, the pin bones will not dissolve and thus they have to be removed. I usually end up filleting fish over 1/2lb and removing the pin bones. In trout over 5lbs, I usually take a pair of pliers to them.

[monk54321]

Neat. I discovered this method by accident when I picked the cooked fish up by the tail. I was considering butterflying the trout prior to cooking it, but I think this is easier.

You can tell that this guy is having fun. The trout looks delicious.
