Trout Cakes

As we wrap up prime fishing season and head into hunting season, it’s time to think about eating all the trout caught while staying active outdoors all summer! I don’t know about you, but by this time of year, I have had plenty of smoked, baked, and grilled trout. This recipe is an easy way to use up a lot of fresh or frozen catch.
