Try This Tasty Pan Fried Trout Recipe!

Brief video of a tasty trout recipe that is simple but surprisingly tasty. Easy preparation. Give it a try!

Ingredients:

  • Three Rainbow Trout - total 6 fillets
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper 
  • Garlic Powder
  • Paprika
  • Flour
  • Butter
  • Olive Oil
  • Garlic Butter Sauce of your choice. We like Louisiana Fish Fry listed below.

Directions:

  1. Dry each fillet with a napkin, and then lightly sprinkle Salt, Black Pepper, Garlic Powder, and Paprika on each fillet.
  2. Be sure to season both sides of each fillet.
  3. Next, coat each fillet  liberally in flour, covering both sides.
  4. Then, melt butter in olive oil in a pan large enough to hold 2 - 3 fillets.
  5. Once the butter is melted, increase heat to medium. And then, pan fry the fillets for 5 - 8 minutes on each side.
  6. Fillets are done when golden brown and flake when checked with a fork.
  7. When done, place the fillets on a plate with a napkin and then use another napkin to pat the fillet to remove the excess oil.

Serve fillets on a bed of Rice Pilaf with a layer of Garlic Butter Sauce covering the fillet and add your choice of sides.

Try Walking the Blue River Next Fishing Trip

This round I decided to mix things up and forego the low water crossing. Instead, I walked the area north of the crossing and explored the area. Learned a few things and even limited out on Trout! Great times fishing a river!


PS: Here is the map referenced in the video of the Blue River.

Keep This Fishing Fly in Your Fly Box! 😎

Here is another simple but effective pattern to keep in your fly box this trout stocking season.

Only need a dust mop and dubbing material, add a jig fly hook, and tie the material on... and you are ready!



Try This Fishing Fly for Trout....

Here is the fishing fly that produced for us recently on the Blue River in Oklahoma. Tried various fishing flies before settling on the Near Deere. Trout were taking both olive and white with the key factor being the presentation and retrieve - short pull retrieves! Do give it a try!



Else, try a Wooley Bugger

Try This Retrieve for Trout!

​@COAF Field Team  follow up on an earlier video in case you missed it. The retrieve that worked consistently while fly fishing for trout on the Blue River in Oklahoma! Do give it a try... no strike indicator, short pull retrieve,  set the hook at any indication of a strike... line hesitates, twitches, or pulls or the fly disappears,...

Limited Out Trout Fishing the Blue River | 2022 - 2023 Trout Stocking Season

Decided to fish the Blue River Saturday on short notice. Plan was to go next weekend, but not sure how work and play will conflict in the next few weeks. Saw an opening for Saturday, so went for it.

Tied a number of fishing flies Friday night after work. Mainly tied Near Deere, Pat's Rubber Legs, and Mop Flies with plan to tie more GRHEN, Pheasant Tail Nymphs, and Muddler Minnows at a future date.

Was worried that the heavy rain on Friday into Saturday morning would make the river murky and fast flowing. Luckily, the river stayed clear and the current was not heavy... actually seemed slow.

Caught a number of trout releasing all but three. Lost a lot more as my mojo was off.  No worries, was a great start tot eh 2022 - 2023 Trout Stocking Season.

PS: Shout out to Donavan and Okie Fly Gal... great seeing ya'll again. Hope to be back on the Blue sooner than later!

Bass Weight Estimator!

It has been some time since we posted the Bass Weight Estimator on our archived blog - CityOfAllenFishing.blogspot.com, but after a few tweaks, it is available once again on our current blog - Stocker Trout Fishing!

Check it out and keep it handy when out in the field fishing for bass. Information is derived from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (link to TWPD's site).

It's meant for catch and release fishing for Bass and estimates the weight based on the length measured to the nearest 1/8 inch.

Give it a try by clicking on the picture below, or clicking here - Bass Weight Estimator.

Trout Near My Feet! Step Lightly Wading a River. #fishing #flyfishing #shorts

Decided to tie a Wooley Bugger to my  @GoFish Cam  several seasons back, and then "troll" it in a shallow side creek to the main channel of the Blue River. Was surprised how many trout were in the less than knee deep water as well as some that were near my feet! Step lightly when wade fishing!
