Our favorite with the rainbows we would catch up in Canada was to take the
whole fish (cleaned and scaled) and make deep slits in the sides. Stuff each
slit wth ginger slivers. Put some more ginger and some scallions in the
belly. Wrap tightly in foil and steam for 1 hour.

The bacon grease is a a bit much for me, so I would use butter, and maybe
cornmeal with or instead of the flour.

Best rainbow trout I ever cooked was from a trout farm about a mile from my
house. I went over just before dinner and got four trout right out of the pond.
They were netted and cleaned for me. I wished later that I had had them debone
them for me too. I made up a stuffing with some shrimp, crab, onion, breadcrumbs
and some seasoning, stuffed and baked them. They turned out wonderfully.

Hmmmm. I flour them and fry them in canola oil. They make a wonderful
change from eggs for breakfast. I was thinking that bacon fat would
overpower them. I guess not?

There's a long-time restaurant in NE Minneapolis that has a stocked
trout stream in the patio area -- you can net your supper. Jax is the
name of it - on University and about 13th or so.
