The best trout I ever had was freshly caught up in the Sierras on a camping trip. After gutting them and leaving the skin on without descaling, we put some butter inside them along with garlic salt and lemon pepper. Then, wrapped them up in aluminum and placed on a bed of coals for a few minutes. The entire fish, to include the skin, was out of this world. Outstanding knife review and video as always, bro!

Fished all my life here in NM and never scaled a trout, no worries, if you want to that's up to you. Nice looking knife, seems to fit many task well and should do the job just fine. It's all in how you wield it eh... Tasty desert meal I'd say, looked delicious. Enjoyed this one James and the music from Cuervo, thanks to both. See ya next time.

@snellaltal 9 месяцев назад

James, thanks for the review . I was raised also to scale trout so I’m in the same boat bro!!! Happy Holidays!!

@jhunter213 9 месяцев назад

I won the work tuff Mt. Laguna for a monthly Patreon giveaway and everything from the thickness to the fine edge says quality so I would expect nothing less from any of their knives. I agree it is a solid bush crafter knife. I do not take the scales off trout, if you are cooking on an open flame they almost burn off depending on how hot your flame is. The crunch on those chips!

@StevanOutdoor 9 месяцев назад

Most of the times I don't take the scales off, cook on the skin side but don't eat the skin itself. The kydex sheath looks very well made and I like that flat bottom so it doesn't rub through fabric. The knife misses a lanyard hole and that texture on the grip makes it more difficult to clean. I agree with the difficult price range. But it seems to perform well as an all round small camp knife.

@robertchavez5647 9 месяцев назад

Great informative video! I also scale trout because I was taught that even trout scales can get caught in the throat. I appreciate your videos and I actually use the information you put out. Your video on Oregon Dungeness crabs helped me to catch my first 9 crabs in 2021 in Bandon Oregon off their pier. I also kept a claw as a souveni. Thanks again for another great video! 👍

@MTM3381 9 месяцев назад

Growing up in New Mexico and eating rainbow trout every year I have never removed the scales but to each their own . I say do whatever makes you happy. Keep up the great work James

@longrider42 9 месяцев назад

Yeah, you don't scale a trout. Just fry the thing in garlic butter, till the skin gets nice and crunchy ;)

Great video James. That definitely was a great meal. I’ve trout fishing quite often throughout my life some guys scale them and some don’t no big deal. I prefer not to. About the knife I agree with you over priced for all the competition. My wife and I Carry the Gerber principles around camp. I believe there were no more than $65 been using them for a few years now. Stay safe my friend

Hi James! I'm like you... I always remove the scales off my fresh trout, all species of fish with scales actually... Great Quervo tunes!! He gets better n better!!

@woodsinthewoods5337 9 месяцев назад

I have eaten more trout than I can count cooked in almost as many ways and haven’t ever descaled them, come to think of it I’ve never descaled a fish of any kind. With trout the skin and scale peals right off after cooking. Great video and soundtrack as always friend!

@woodsinthewoods5337 9 месяцев назад

Never tried seasoning after cooking the fish. We’ve always rubbed seasoning into them before cooking and then sprinkle on a bit of lemon after

@Seancmccormick 9 месяцев назад

Kind of a no thrills design with great capabilities. I like it! I was brought up descaling fish. Personally, I either stuff them ,and wrap in foil, or fry with a bread crumb, or flour mixture. If you don't descale them that way, and eat the skin you'll know. LOL! I bet though if one were to straight up fry with butter on a skillet it would probably cook them off. Atb Sean

@Honk21 9 месяцев назад

I've always scaled em, James, but recently I was told you don't have to. And honestly, I can't tell much difference. It takes 2 seconds to do it, so do it how ya wanna do it! Great video! Try a BPS knife for budget options, I have the bushmate as a first try for them.

@scottangel6462 9 месяцев назад

Hey James, I grew up in the men's of Western NC, and my dad would take me trout fishing often, we always scaled our Rainbows. I really like the knife slot, don't care much for the sheath tho, I prefer leather. Theirs a way of taking the backbone out of the fish removing the bones and leaving just the meat, done it many times. Also put ya some onions, Bell peppers and salt and pepper in those taters makes really good lol!!! Great video as always!!

James. Remove the scales on the trout is definitely a good idea, especially if you like to munch crispy skin. James, does Cuervo have a link to his music? Best content ever content. Nice steel as well. See ya bud

@Airik1111bibles 9 месяцев назад

They actually gave it a higher scandi , thats what really bugs me with these thick scandi designs of late. They make the grinds way too shallow. You are right, the market is over saturated with these kinds of knives. At that price range, I'd rather spend a few more bucks on an LT Wright....Or much less like I just did on a Tops Tanimboca Puukko 😁 Love me some Tops 1095hc scandiVex blades, their Brakimo won me over 4 years ago . That WT gear is nice but doesn't have anything that speaks to me. I love knives with charecter like your old Green River blade ...I gotta get me one of those .

I was taught that if it has scales, then you descale them... but I can't tell you if there was any logic to it. I have a rock that keeps tigers away - I haven't been bitten yet. As someone said above: to each their own.

the coke bottle type handle isn't traditional

@JunkyardFox 9 месяцев назад

It was popularized by Ray Mears’ knife design back in the early 90s. Almost 30 years later, the woodlore design has influenced countless makers and models. at this point it very much is traditional.
