Re: Cooking FW trout:
I don't trout fish but my neighbor gave me 24 rainbows that he and his buddies caught near Lambertville. My job is to smoke them. Almost all were small maybe 6-8 inches heads off. Brined for 2 days and smoked with oak. Once smoked the center bone peals right off meat. Tastes great. There was 0ne big trout about 18 inches head off (guess he was stocked a few years ago) so I made slits on sides and stuffed with lots of parsley and lemon to bake. It seems very similar to salmon. A bit oily.
