Just got back from Dale Hollow. Thought I'd post a few pictures from my tour of the trout hatchery next to the campground we stayed at.
It was netted to keep the birds out I guess.
The black area is all trout.
They also had an aquarium with local species.
I caught some while I was there!
Do any of you guys filet trout? I had several people tell me they don't bother keeping them because they are so hard to filet.
I've always just cut the head off, gutted it, and cooked it whole. Then once the meat is tender, you can pull the whole spine and rib cage out in one piece.
Then just eat the meat off the skin.
