If you fry your trout and the skin gets crispy it really is very delicious. Otherwise the skin can have an un appetizing texture and I think it contributes to a fishy flavor. Generally I prefer to skin my trout. This video shows how my scout master taught me to get the job done.
Thanks for watching! Please check out the camping gear I design and offer for your consideration on my website: https://fireboxstove.com/
