Post by: Troutmagnet on Jan 05, 2013, 07:23 PM: I also hit a couple of Central VT water bodies today. The wind was brutal for me. Just finished eating our fish fry, didn't catch as many as you but got enough for a couple more fry pan fulls tomorrow. Real nice catch!!!

Post by: Vtgooseman on Jan 06, 2013, 11:07 AM: Ruby, the beer is less filling and also tastes great! It also has been proved to improve catch rates by a private panell of experts. ;D

That's good stuff right there. I myself just finished deep frying some gills and Bud Ice...I was the only person on the panel but it (fish and beer) certainly tasted delicious.
