I went out this morning with 2 buddies on our yaks, and well we slayed the sea trout. Pics will get posted later. My question for everyone is....Are all your trout infested with worms? Every fish we had was loaded with them? The trip was a blast but the cleaning of the fish just to find nothing but worms sucked. Anyway, I havent slept in almost 24 hours, so Im going to get somne sleep....will post pics when i get them.

with the waters getting so hot, i imagine that a few do have worms. go ahead and cook the worms in the fish, they wont hurt ya.

That's why I only fool with trout if they are over 5 lbs, the little ones are too mushy and got more worms than meat.

the females have more of a slime coat to protect their roe.

the majority of the gator trout are female, and tend not to have any worms.

so just keep a fattie from time to time, if worms put you off.

When it gets hot likes this the trout tend to lay on bottom alot all day and so the worms get worse, but in the spring and fall/winter, you really don't see too many worms. That's the best time to keep um. But I just cut out what I can and cook the rest....yummy.

In the good old summertime, specs really do have white worms in them. If you try and filet them across the backbone you will see the white suckers.

Aj's are the same way. I dont keep Specs or aj's because of this. I dont care if you cook them out or not.

Interesting. I wasn't even aware that was an issue. Just cook them in the fish? Sounds weird, but maybe that's just first reaction.
