Did you debone the trout? It's tricky but worth it

No. I’m too lazy usually haha. My husband catches them, and I clean and cook them. He has a habit of catching them when I’m justtttt about to go to sleep or already in bed!

I do debone lake whitefish before I cook it. I just pull the bones out with tweezers. Is there a faster way?

There's tweezers made specifically to debone fish that do the job more easily, but it's only marginally faster than regular old tweezers.

I found a trick to use a sharp knife to cut the meat around the majority of the bones, and then there's just about a dozen pin bones to pull out with tweezers. The resultant filet doesn't look as pretty as in your picture but it's nice to have zero bones
