Nice work! My wife says they should be called Leopard Trout which is closer to the markings....but Tiger sounds better |

Yes Well done!! Me and the wife did not fare so well...lol. spent most of the afternoon sorting out kit issues as this was our first journey onto the ice this season, and everything was a bit all over the place after the move...so no fish on the ice for us. We did however have the opportunity to see a few Tigers on the camera, which was cool! Now after a few days of sorting out the gear and doing detailed kit check...we are ready!! And...ya...thanks to Cat for tossing us a jig and some bait...lol...brought everything out and forgot the tackle bag...HOWEVER, it was a soild affirmation as to why we moved to a place that has amazing fishing in a variety of locations within 30 minutes of the house. Had we not had such a gracious host as Cat...it would of been a quick run back to the house to grab it! Can't wait to get back on the ice here in a couple days and find those Tigers!! __________________ |

I bite off and eat the meaty part ohhh and you can dip it in the sauce that comes with the platter This works on this lake not sure on others but worth a try, good luck. __________________ |

Surely it depends on the lake - water and forage. Glad you have a good one. I have a local pond that the forage is largely water beetles and they are the worst tasting rainbows I have ever tried. Not even close to edible. Meanwhile there are some other lakes that are just fine. Maybe we need to create a "Tastability" index for our trout lakes |

All were lightly coated in flour, salt and pepper cooked in butter. The meat on all four was a light pink color and yup they were great. No muddy taste at all thank god as you had me almost looking for a muddy taste but non what so ever. I can see how they maybe muddy tasting as this lake prior to the aerators being installed was just that....all trout went on the smoker if kept but over the last two seasons they have been great eaters. __________________ |

Maybe we need to create a "Tastability" index for our trout lakes wait til you try the rainbows from Dewitt's pond, it will give your local pond a run for top spot! but on other hand, Chain lake rainbows taste great. |
