something different in Alamance - trout

Hit Cedar Rock Park in Alamance yesterday. They stock rainbow trout in the winter. you pay $5 to fish there. Must keep all trout caught (no catch and release) with a limit of 6. I had mine in about 2 hours mid day with a few missed bites. Most folks were soaking power bait dough on bottom so I set up a rod to do that. I was going to cast but I was standing with the wind in my face and I never got motivated to rig a rod to cast a spinner or a jig. I did see one guy catch 2 on a jig but his bites were very far between. Photo to come.

How do you deal with pinbones?

We just dip them in butter and roll in seasoned flour and fry in a pan. The meat will flake right off the bones. We typically don't fillet trout but if you do then you can use tweezers to pull the small bones out before cooking.
