Texas waters have two different types of trout that look similar, sand trout and gulf trout. ( speckled trout not in this group). Sand and gulf look similar, but are different species that have a different texture as well. Sandy’s are a bit mushy, while gulf trout have a firmer meat. Gulf trout get bigger and have 8-9 anal rays, while sand trout have 11.
we keep good sand trout (sandies). my GF wouldn't dare but my BF and i keep them and pan fry or do a fish fry with them. we try and cook them right away since they do get mushy and don't freeze well. next time we catch some, i'm going to try packing them in salt like we used to do with rainbow trout and see if they keep better.
Sure Miss your Fishing Videos
@@stillkathleen60 I know!! We miss making them too!! So sorry for the change
