not slow for those kivvers. glad you kept em. get em outta there. nice trout butch and dick. better pics too.
Out here many bluegill fisherman will throw the trout back and keep the bluegills. The diehard bluegill fisherman call the trout snot rockets. On one lake ice fishing you'd hear a lot of profanity when the big rainbows schools came through and snapped their 2 pound test all the way down the line. Some ice fisherman even used 1 lb. test as the water is so clear in that lake. No match for up to 7 pound rainbows.
The favorite way to eat the bluegills here is to fillet them and deep fry in beer batter.
