Tired Trout Question
 

I'd research this, but I need to give someone an answer about a weekend
fishing plan by lunch time today. This guy wants to hit a few Finger Lakes
(NY) tributaries this weekend, for whatever's spawning at the moment. My
understanding (which you are welcome to dismember) is that these fish are
going to be either tired & skinny, or close to death. I'm not sure (yet) if
we're dealing with rainbows, browns, lake trout, or what. Is it even worth
fishing for them, if the goal is dinner?

Most spawning streams contain both spawning
fish and other species that follow them to feed
on the spawn -- themselves spawning at other
times of the year.

If the goal is fishies for dinner, might I suggest a tuna sammitch?

Suggestion noted. But, a different taste is in order this weekend. Might end
up being perch.
