My sister and I caught our first trout of the season. We were supposed to be on our way home about the time I told my dad I wasn’t leaving until I caught a fish, and look who tried to eat my hook.
I was pretty proud when Dad grilled them up for dinner.
Mia was mildly concerned when she thought she was supposed to eat the tail! She seemed a little confused by a variety of things, including her Santa pjs in the middle of summer. 🙂

How did you like your fresh caught trout StellaJane? It looks very delicious on your plate. Poor Mia, I can fully understand her reaction. Somehow the fish looks sad on the plate without it’s head!
Oh girls, what great catches! I hope you enjoyed them, as a fresh catch is THE BEST! Great job!!
Oh My Maryjane and family, trout! Perhaps you heard about my ordeal of eating trout and only trout for over 6 months when I was camped out in the NH White Mountains many years back ? MJ remembers my tale ( or is it tail?).
But kudos to your fish catching skills Mia and Stellajane! yep, pan fry them fast and you just give the tail and innards to the cats or coons. Heaven knows I fed a whole slew of them that year.
