Are those lahotans or rainbows? How do they taste? Any that I've had from alkaline waters weren't great.
Beautiful fish though, and a great experience for the kids regardless.

I've heard, but I don't know, that the muddy flavor of trout from alkali lakes is in the skin so if skinned the muddy flavor is removed. Is that true?

This time of year they are mussy from the warmer waters, in the spring from cold waters they can be grilled just cut the fatty parts off .
