Fresh Water Trout are abundant in the northern part of Lake of the Woods, however, very often anglers are surprised when a trout shows up on the south side of the lake also even though they’re fishing for walleye. Then they get another taste treat!

Ingredients

• 4 bacon strips
• 2 dressed trout (1 pound each)
• 4 lemon slices
• 1 small onion, halved and sliced
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper

  

•  
• CARROTS:
• 4 medium carrots, thinly sliced
• 1/8 teaspoon salt
• Dash pepper
• 1 tablespoon butter
• Lemon wedges

Directions

1. Cook bacon until partially cooked but not crisp; drain. Place each trout on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 20×18 in.). Place lemon and onion in the trout cavities; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Wrap trout with bacon. Fold foil around trout and seal tightly.
2. Place carrots on a double thickness of heavy-duty foil (about 20×18 in.); sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dot with butter. Fold foil around carrots and seal tightly.
3. Grill carrots, covered, over medium heat for 10 minutes. Add trout packets to grill; cook 20-25 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with a fork and carrots are tender. Serve with lemon wedges.
