"Northern" Speckled Trout...
Also known as brook trout to "UPPERS" (yoo-pers) aka: folks who in habit the upper penninsula of Michigan. Just got back home and figured I'd share of few picks from my little vacation.

Several years ago I got to caribou hunt WAAAAAAY up in northwestern Quebec, on Lac Minto. We could not keep fish to bring home but could eat all we wanted while there. I took a fly rod and had lots of fun with the brook trout. Drop any kind of fly on top of the water and they couldn't get to it fast enough. We ate several brook trout and a few lake trout. My pick was the brookies by a mile.

Best thing about those brookies is that after a simple pan-fry, their tails become like tater chips and go great with a good beer.

Those bring back some fond memories from the early seventies when I was a boy. I would catch my limit of Brookies everyday and eat them all that night in the little brooks in Southern Vermont where my Grandpa lived. Miss those days so much!

Being a "Northerner" I can appreciate the brookie as well. We have a nice little crick in town where I caught trout after trout as a kid. They are some of the best tasting fish on the planet, bar none!

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
