TROUT - Part 1

This was a cool blessing!

On Christmas day, when most stores were closed, some friends of of ours wanted to go fishing for trout. While they had the desire, they did not have the gear, so they stopped in to see if they could borrow some hooks. When they grabbed the hooks, then they asked about sinkers. We generously gave them an ample supply of each, and off to the river they went.

What we did not expect was for them to return with a portion of their catch to bless us with. But... that's exactly what they did! They showed back up and dropped off five of the Rainbow Trout to bless our family with. The Little-Peppers gutted the fish, and then we soaked them in lemon juice overnight. Here are some photos of the process to that point, and if you want to see what happened next, you'll have to stop back later. Enjoy the photos!
