I have just cooked a 2 1/2 lb rainbow caught yesterday, taken from clear still water. The fish was in beautifull condition, the flesh appeared quite a nice pink colour prior to being cooked and was not frozen overnight.
It tasted like a mouthfull of mud! and the flesh had turned an insipid pinky yellowy type colour.
The fish I had been catching during the depths of winter had a lovely dark pink salmon type colour flesh and tasted delicious, retaining the nice dark pink colour after cooking.
Why?
Is there a right and a wrong time to eat trout? are there seasons depending on what they are feeding on?
This particular fish battled really hard and because I found myself on the wrong side of a tree to my landing net I had to play him out and drag him up the bank. Could it be anything to do with a build up of lactic acid?
Your thoughts please gents.
Thanks
