Most fish are easy for me to fillet, trout being the exception. However I haven't killed a trout in 30+ years.

No you didn't say, but I wanted to make it clear to you and others that it's against the law to harvest trout from streams that are wild trout streams. And PFBC watches this board.Cornholio wrote:
Chaz, Do you know the stream classification of where I was fishing?

Everyone I know hangs game. None leave the guts in.

You do realize that harvesting trout from wild trout streams is illegal during the extended season?

jeez, bashing in heads with rocks and clubs. just put your thumb in their mouth and quickly break the neck by bending the head backwards touching their nose to their back. it snaps in less than a second and it's immediate lights out. seems more humane to me - probably why hanging replaced stoning.
Also i've always heard to gut game ASAP and get the hide off and cool them ASAP. don't see sides of beef hanging with the hide on or guts in.
