I caught a couple rainbow trout vacationing in that BREC cesspool by the skate park and am wondering what to do with these shiny little fellows. Anyone have recommendations for cooking cleaning? I normally filet and pan fry my fish but don't know if there's a special touch that should be used with the rainbow trout.

How long ago did they stock them? I read that it takes about 2 weeks after they are stocked for the trout to stop tasting like dog food

The classsic way to cook them is called trout almandine...look it up.

Just so you know, they are fairly bony.and not really much good in comparison to the southern fish. When I catch them Jon Colorado, I usually release them and just get some catfish when I get home.

I'm not very adventurous when it comes to food and I have never had rainbow trout otherwise but the pesto crusted rainbow trout at Sea Rotisserie Grill is delicious. Their rare cooked tuna steak is also excellent.

I caught some once in the White River, and just knew they would be awesome based on how beautiful they were. I was not impressed at all. I'd probably eat them if I lived somewhere where they were prevalent, but they aren't anything special. Better than eating pogies, not as good as eating choupique.

I saw a guy cook them on TV. Apparently if you filet them you're doing it wrong. You should cook them whole or steak them with the skin on. The bones will come out in one shot once it's done cooking.
