Weirdest drunkness was on Serbian plum moonshine. Everyone who drank from it did something stupid/weird/crazy that night.

I still have some rainbow trout in the freezer from my fishing trip in April  :Canuck:

The best fish there is, in my opinion.

My girlfriend, who imbibed quite a bit more than me, thought it was a great idea to swim naked and have sex on the beach.

That poor fellow who was out fishing probably just got his eyesight back.

Rakija/ракија is actually plum brandy. The one I tasted was not that great, but far from the worst spirit I drank. I tasted better after having a few other glasses of some other alcoholic drink
Not necessarily moonshine though, there seems to be some legit production, I even saw it on sale in Paris.

A couple of them are "Golden Rainbow Trout", which are a mutated species first bred in West Virginia fish hatcheries a few decades ago.  They are harder to catch.  But taste the same :mellow:

Rainbow trout is common in mountain lakes here. In the lowlands, there's mostly just bass and fish that's not fit to eat under any circumstance. I should probably add that's freshwater. The seas outside our coast are fairly clean when Chinese or Russian ships aren't capsizing.

If you like trout fishing, you would probably love the movies a couple of my friends have made. PM me if you want to know more, Spicey.

I hear for Salmon fishing you want to go to Yemen.

For salmon fishing you probably want to be royal and have your own river.
