I thought you people were weaned on mushy peas up your way?

For the record, I was raised eating 'garden' peas. My Dad wouldn't have touched mushy peas and I doubt he had even heard of them.

I doubt I had eaten mushy peas until I had left home and gone to uni. I think my first experiences of mushy peas would have been in mushy pea fritters during drunken, late night, fish suppers.

I bet it didn't breed up there, though!

Why wouldn't it? Trout is a cold water fish with its origin here on the US west coast. See here from wiki;

The rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is a species of trout native to cold-water tributaries of the Pacific Ocean in North America and Asia.

Rainbow trout - Wikipedia

There are loads of trout up in Alaska, a place just a bit colder than Scotland. They feel right at home up there, I can assure you.

^ Strange.

When I fly-fished in England the still waters and reservoirs were stocked with rainbows but they never bred. Only the native and stocked brown trout bred. At the start of the season (April) the overwintered rainbows were out of condition (black) and were always put back until the weather warmed up and they had regained condition, later in the season.

I need to read up on this.

There is a guy up in the mountains of Chiang Mai who raises Rainbow trout naturally. Not fed hormones and garbage stuff. The water runs off the mountain through his creek to a few large tanks then out. My wife and I had lunch there one day. The owner was an American Thai fella that loved trout fishing and started his place. Haven't been in years and its a pretty good drive up to his place.

Well....If AI says it...all good.

All information comes from somewhere, and is no more or less credible than AI's sources, to be fair.

However, this new AI heading at the top of google searches saves me the hard work after I raise a question.

I usually just heat my mushy peas on the stove top.

My motor skills are developed enough to eat normal peas with a fork.

Oh Yeah I hear ya Snubs. Catching a Brown, Cutthroat, Rainbow out of a fast moving river on light tackle or a fly rod then cooking them up around a campfire with friends was, and still is, the best. Like you up in Washington with your plentiful rivers, I used to fish creeks coming out of Lassen for Cutthroat. Perfect pan fry. Klamath was always GREAT for the big rainbows when the Nymphs were flying. And of course the Feather river was the big Steelhead run.

The good ol days for sure.

West coast life that many on here could not imagine, the concept of public lands is foreign to most.

They are not as plentiful as when I was a kid stumps. I used to fish the skykomish, miller, sol duc, wynoochee and humptulips rivers mixed in with lots of backpacking and camping in those areas. Good steelhead fishing on all those rivers back in the day.

Never was much of a fly fisherman but I do love the Klamath.

LOL The Americans think they invented public land.

You have nothing like the vast open spaces we have in the US. Clueless as usual.

Plenty of places to tickle a fresh water trout in wild open spaces in the UK and they're public as well!!

Fooking priceless

Rods are for amateurs, in the UK we tickle them!

Oh my. The dole scrounger is on the rotgut once again.

I think he just beat BLDs record for most number of posts in a row.


But they’ll never beat Spamdreath! there can only be one!
