Follow These Fishing Tips to Catch Elusive Brown Trout

Are you ready to embark on the ultimate fishing adventure and catch the elusive brown trout? These fascinating freshwater fish are native to Europe and Asia but have made their way to many parts of the world, including North America. Brown trout are highly sought-after game fish for their distinctive markings and challenging nature, making them a true prize for any angler. So, are you ready to…

Trespass

She was used to seeing all manner of people fishing in grander folks’ purses. Her father had taught her to look the other way, and refresh her promise never to do it herself. “Never judge anyone you see doing it,” he told her over a campfire and a seething pan of trout. “You don’t know what might have brought them down. And for all blessed sake, never rat them out. But don’t ever let your own fingers get wandersome in somebody’s pocket. White bugs will bite them. And give you blood rot. You’ll never get your fingers back.”

“But what if something brought us down?” Noemie  asked, holding the tip of a coppery hair from her own head close to the fire, just to watch it curl up and turn black.

“Nothing can bring us that far down,” her father said, staring into the bluest part of the fire.  “You and I, we’re knights of the road. The difference between us and them is we know how to find our way onward,  no matter how bleak it gets. So we’ll never have a need, and never an excuse.” 

“But we slept in someone’s chicken coop last night,” she pointed out, throwing away the hair, which had melted into a tiny knot,  “and you said a judge would call it  burglary. And we just took this trout straight out of the king’s river.”

Her father took the whittled wooden spoon in hand. “The law has nothing to do with it. It’s about what’s right. Sleeping in a coop isn’t burglary. It’s trespass. And God never outlawed trespass. As for the trout,” (he flipped as much of the fish over with the spoon as didn’t stick,) “He made it, not man, and put it on this earth that anyone might have it.”

Noemie settled in for an argument of it, just for sport. “But he made the horse too - so it’s all right to just take a horse?”

Her father gave a long whistle. “Well, he did make it - but man did an awful lot more helping make the horse than the trout, so no.”

“Then it’s worse to steal a book than a horse?”

“Loads worse. That’s why no one ever does it.”

Something had changed in Noemie’s moral code that night. She had never even picked up a quarter penny from the road after that. It was why now, even with the prison’s looming deadline for debt repayment, and her father on the other side of those iron bars, she had never even considered pinching the last few coins to make up the sum.

He would find out if she did. He'd whittle the truth out of her. And she’d never have her fingers back.

You know me, always, always asking about mer Hob

@kydrogendragon (combining same-wip asks bc life stole my spoons and I will not be drafting new snippets for these as I'd originally hoped to)

MerHob started because I wanted to write a mer AU and I wanted to incorporate some actual fish mating behavior which is why I based him on the leopard coral trout. Here's a pic for color reference:

His tail's the bright orange with the blue spots and all his fins are that bright yellow of the fish's pectoral fins. He's probably got a dorsal fin running from his human back down the fishtail a ways, too - I'm no artist and I'm still undecided on all the details, but he's got long hair and ear fins and neck gills and his chest/arms are still hairy. Selkie blood in his family tree accounts for the hair and also makes it easier for him to turn human than most mers. I have unfortunately not written anything more for the 'main fic' than the substantial bits in the wip: MerHob tag. BUT. I have a bingo square for 'almost caught' and the October monthly prompt 'Injury Recovery' that I want to combine using MerHob for something (please I am praying) short. And maybe from his pov since the main story is from Dream's? Idk but I gotta get moving on it, in any case.

Fish No. 1

After blowing me off in my first attempt earlier this week (and soaking me, to boot), Huron gave me a second chance Thursday.

It wasn't what you would call a bluebird kind of day; it was cool and overcast with a slight chop on the water - a fishy looking kind of day.

I hooked this lake trout - the first fish of the season for me - on a spoon, trolling in 90 feet of water. Six hours later, it was dinner for four.

I'm happy to get the skunk out of the box (translation: I'm happy to replace the nothingness in my cooler with something.)

[talesfromsiteredacted]

Random Grabbag of Interesting Threats and Insults Heard at Site (REDACTED)

Various and sundry threats overheard around site, some directed at the staff, some at the anomalies, some at the Chaos Insurgency. Some are from the anomalies. Hell, I've got a few here. There's rumor about a Most Inventive Threat competition starting. No context, just hostility.

"I swear, if you start in with the singing again... I'm going to cut out your vocal chords, nail them to the front gate, add a warning sign, and spread the word far and wide the Viking penalty for raping eardrums applies here."

"Whomever decided Doctor Bright was Site Command material is gonna get a very special lemon basket, with combustible citrus."

"You're going to get cheesed, mate." "Cheesed?" "Like getting creamed, but a longer, more involved, and more agonizing process. With knives possibly involved."

"Wow... in the D&D game of life, you rolled a nat 1 on not just intelligence, but wisdom and charisma too."

"Keep staring at my sisters like that. I'll show you the Sumerian Cheese Grater trick."

"Keep pushing. Heard Ferdinand would just love a dinner date with you. One more comment like that, and I'll butcher, cook, and serve him your corpse."

"Wanna find out what happens when an idiot gets thrown in a miniature black hole? Keep asking 'When's lunch?' and you'll get firsthand experience."

"Why do you make easy-peasy lemon squeezy into hard hard lemon impossible?"

"Clef... touch my dark roast again, I'll shoot you with your own shotgun."

"Mock Dr. Kondraki again, you'll find out why butterflies can be terrifying."

"This. Is. Why. You. Leave. The. Keters. Alone. Now, piss off before I spank you again with your own baton, kid."

"Meh. You may have top clearance, but you don't have friends, and you don't have taste."

"The Keter? Nah, your willy isn't even Euclid." A pause. "Really weird thing to call your dong, Doctor Bright."

"What do we do with a drunken Bright? Lock him in the brig, and turn a very cold hose on him, of course."

"Interrupt my work once more, and I will be forced to suture your mouth shut."

"Those bastards! I'm going to carve their livers out with a rusty dull spoon!"

"It shouldn't be possible to play a ukulele with malicious intent, but here comes Clef, proving me wrong. One more super slow Tom Petty song, he'll be wearing that damn ukulele as a necktie."

"I could put a sack of manure through 914 on rough and get a better argument than that."

"The Chaos Insurgency must love stupid people, there's so many. Either that, or they need to start using a better temp agency."

"You call this coffee? I call this a mug of disappointment."

"Say it. You'll be eating Tuna Surprise slurries for weeks." A pause. "Why Tuna Surprise slurries? You'll be missing all your teeth."

"Huh. Surprised you can even breathe with your head so far up your own ass."

"Jeremy. My dude. You. Reek. You're out here, smelling like one of 682's chili farts, unwashed, ungroomed, uneducated... and you want a piece of my cake? Hah. Until you rediscover the wonders of a shower and soap, you ain't even touching my ladyfingers."

"Listen to me, Leonard... there is no place in the entire fucking mulitverse where I would find your creepy ass attractive. Now, fuck off before I treat you like a lich, you worthless wreck. You got no game, and lo! No maidens. Maybe 073 can teach you 'Not Being a Creep 101', you need it. Get the fuck out of here, pathetic maidenless wretch!"

"Big Brother told me about this thing he did to a guy with a wire waistcoat and a bicycle pump. Thinking of trying it on a certain annoying doctor."

"Put another fish in the damn fountain. I'll pulverize you with a trout."

"Dr. Gears... I know you're trying to set a good example, but right now you look like a poster for 'The Horrors of Insomnia and Overwork'. You need a long ass nap, boss."

"Grr. The Chaos Insurgency, can't stop them, but can't round them up, push them into a meat grinder, and use them as mutated shark bait."

"Okay... someone get Dr. Glass up here. Dr. Clef is delusional again. He just said Dr. Bright had a good idea. That's not possible."

"Wow. Contracting 008 might actually make this moron into a mere fool."

"I'm not sure if I should hit you with a shovel, shove a live snake up your ass, or just throw you in the incinerator."

"I'd sooner gnaw my own leg off and beat myself to death with it instead of have even a cup of coffee with you. Go away, Karin."

This week's recipe (sssh I know it's late) is seafood bouillabaisse

This traditional French recipe is often enjoyed along the VSR's western border, where the culture has a much stronger French influence. As the VSR is landlocked, more often than not the fish that would be used in the recipe would be river fish such as carp and trout, or, in the northern part of the country, more exotic species such as the three-eyed oiosone, unicorn squid, and orchid isopod.

Ingredients

5 lb assorted seafood, divided into firm- and soft-fleshed varieties

2 crayfish (or similarly sized invertebrate)

1 baguette

½ cup extra-virgin olive oil

2 onions, peeled and chopped

4 tomatoes, peeled and chopped

4 cloves garlic, peeled chopped

2 sprigs fennel fronds

1 dried bay leaf

¼ teaspoon saffron threads, crumbled

1½ tablespoons coarse sea salt

½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste

2–4 sprigs fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped

Method

Prepare your seafood- gut, de-vein and wash as needed. Discard the gills, but the heads can be kept to add flavour and thickness to the broth. Cut the crayfish, langostine, isopod, or whatever you happen to be using, in half length-wise. Preheat your oven to 121 degrees Celsius. Slice your baguette into small pieces and lay them on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven until brown. This should take 30 minutes. In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil on medium head. Add your aromatics, spices and vegetables and sauté until soft but not browned. Add your crustacean of choice and your most firm-fleshed seafood first. Cover with boiling water, increase heat to high, bring to a rolling boil and let cook for 5 minutes. Add the soft fish and boil for a further 7 to 10 minutes, until the broth thickens and the fish is cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove any shells or heads. Serve with crusty bread and parsley to garnish.

National Caviar Day 

Caviar can be expensive, but for one day indulge in the delicacy. Varieties from some fish are cheaper than others, so shop around and try it out.

There’s a delicacy that is the very definition of elegance in the minds of most people, it’s a mysterious word that brings together a longing for the better things in life, with a strange revulsion once you think too carefully about what it is. There are many things that are referred to by the same name, but only one of them stands as the one true caviar. True Caviar comes from one of a few types of sturgeon, and National Caviar Day celebrates this taste of decadence, and the history behind it.

History of National Caviar Day

Caviar has a strange history, when you consider the place that it holds in society today. The origins, however, remain the same. Caviar is the roe (or eggs) of the female of a number of species of sturgeon, with beluga being the most popular and well known variety of sturgeon. Long ago caviar was served for free in much the same way peanuts often are today, given away free to foster thirst and encourage people to imbibe even more. Proper caviar comes in many colors, though it is most often a deep pearlescent black color, and can account for as much as 25% of a sturgeon’s body weight. For those who don’t know, a sturgeon can weigh in at 300lbs+, meaning a single sturgeon can produce up to 75lbs at a time. Caviar was so popular and the supplies so abundant that North America supplied almost all of the 600 tons a year that went to Europe each year.

Once the ban was put on Sturgeon fishing in the 1906 to protect the dwindling number of them in the ocean, the price of caviar started climbing. By the 1960’s, it was of such a price that it practically defined what it meant to have an elegant, expensive meal. The price has only gone up since then.

How to celebrate National Caviar Day

Celebrating National Caviar Day is delicious and adventurous. While beluga sturgeon may be outside the financial means of many people, that’s not the only kind of caviar there is. National Caviar Day celebrates all of them, even the ‘imposters’ like Salmon, trout, carp, lumpfish, and many more. Get out there and explore the culinary delight that is caviar, and if you’re especially fortunate you can enjoy it from the bowl of a mother-of-pearl spoon. There’s no reason we shouldn’t all be able to eat like King’s and billionaires, if only for one day.

Homosassa Inshore Fishing Report with Captain Toney: Back on the Water hunting Trout, Redfish and Snook

I'm so happy to get back on the water and I'm sure most anglers on the Big Bend are too. We're not going to talk about the last few weeks being a bust, we'll save that for campfire stories later in life. The cooler mornings have dropped our water temps down into the 70's and that will get the fish biting. To target trout, I've been using a popping cork rig with a watermelon red flake soft plastic on a 1/8oz. jighead. Another good bait in calm conditions is a nose-hooked glow jerk bait or a topwater plug if the floating debris is not too bad. The type of bottom I find most of my trout on is hard bottom withrock grass, sponges, and corals. The best bite has been the outgoing tide. For redfish, check the outside keys on the incoming tide. Two things I look for when I'm poling my vessel are lots of mullet and big sharks. The mullet and reds like to congregate around the same keys and big sharks love to eat redfish. This is the time of year when a gold spoon like the Eppinger Rex will shine like no other bait for redfish. I like using a spoon as a search bait because you can cast it a mile and the further away you can stay off a school of reds, the better chances you have in not spooking the fish to another location. Snook are starting to move in towards the deeper creek and rivers from the Gulf. Good spots to catch them are drop-offs on a rocky point, the trough on an oyster bar, and dilapidated docks on therivers. Jigs and suspending twitch baits will get the bite and I always up my leader to 30lb. fluorocarbon to stand a better chance of a large fish wearing through the line. I've had some luck also using cut ladyfish for bait. The incoming tide will be very early morning or late afternoon this weekend.

Flowing from the foothills of Mount Rainier to the Puget Sound, this river offers a range of fishing opportunities throughout the year, making it an ideal spot for anglers of all skill levels.

One of the main attractions of Puyallup River fishing is its healthy population of salmon, including Chinook, coho, and pink salmon, which can be found during their respective spawning seasons.

In addition to salmon, anglers can also target steelhead trout, which are prevalent during the winter and early spring months. The river's varied habitats create perfect conditions for these fish, attracting both seasoned anglers and novices alike.

Fishing Techniques

Fishing in the Puyallup River can be done using various techniques. Drift fishing, float fishing, and using spinners or spoons are popular methods for salmon. For steelhead, many anglers prefer fly fishing or bobber fishing with bait. Each technique has its benefits, and local tackle shops often provide valuable advice on what works best for the current conditions.

Scenic Beauty

Beyond the fishing opportunities, the Puyallup River is known for its stunning natural landscapes. Surrounded by lush forests and majestic mountains, fishing here offers a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Whether you prefer wading into the river or fishing from a boat, the scenic views enhance the overall experience.

Access and Regulations

The Puyallup River is easily accessible from various points, including public parks and fishing accesses. Before heading out, it's essential to check the local regulations and obtain the necessary fishing licenses. Washington State has specific rules regarding fishing seasons, catch limits, and gear restrictions to protect the river's fish populations.

Conclusion

Puyallup River fishing is an adventure that combines the thrill of the catch with the tranquility of nature. Whether you’re casting your line for salmon or steelhead, the Puyallup River offers a rewarding experience for all anglers. With its rich aquatic life, beautiful surroundings, and accessible fishing spots, it's no wonder that this river is a cherished destination for fishing enthusiasts in the Pacific Northwest.

NJ Fishing Report

The NJ fishing scene continues to attract anglers from all over, offering a diverse range of opportunities for both seasoned and amateur fishers. Whether you're after saltwater giants or freshwater favorites, New Jersey’s waters provide plenty of action year-round. This NJ Fishing Report brings you the latest updates on the most popular spots, techniques, and species currently being caught.

Freshwater Fishing Highlights

In New Jersey’s inland lakes and rivers, bass fishing has been heating up. Anglers are reporting excellent catches of largemouth bass, especially in lakes such as Hopatcong and Greenwood. The cooler water temperatures of early fall have stirred up activity, making this a great time to head out. According to the latest NJ Fishing Report, anglers using soft plastics and topwater lures have had the most success, particularly in the mornings and late afternoons.

Trout fishing remains strong, with the Pequest and Musconetcong rivers offering solid action. The New Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife continues to stock these rivers with healthy, sizable trout, ensuring there's plenty to catch. Fly fishers are reporting solid numbers of rainbows, especially in shaded sections of these rivers. For the latest on where the action is hottest, the NJ Fishing Report is a valuable resource for planning your next trip.

Saltwater Fishing Updates

The New Jersey coastline is teeming with activity this season. Striped bass are beginning their annual migration, offering great opportunities for surf fishers and boat anglers alike. Reports indicate that trolling bunker spoons and live eels has produced some of the biggest stripers so far this season. If you're looking for more detailed tips, the NJ Fishing Report is an essential tool for keeping track of the latest trends along the coast.

In addition to striped bass, the fluke bite has been productive, particularly in the southern parts of the state like Cape May and Atlantic City. Anglers drifting squid and spearing baits are enjoying consistent action, and it looks like the fluke season will remain solid for a few more weeks.

Final ThoughtsWhether you’re a saltwater enthusiast chasing trophy stripers or a freshwater angler targeting bass and trout, the NJ Fishing Report provides all the insights you need to stay on top of the latest trends. Be sure to check in regularly to maximize your chances of success on your next outing.
