I grew up in Ogden eating a variety of local fish that my dad caught. It was, and still seems, the norm to me because I enjoy cooking and eating fish, even trout.
I don't always keep them, and won't unless I am confident I will cook them within the next day or two while still fairly fresh.
I have found that once a fish hits the freezer, it's a lot less likely to be thawed and cooked, and I do not want to waste something I've decided to keep.
I have a friend who has truly become a great fly fisherman (we used to clean up on the Ogden as kids flipping Panthers and Rapalas) he has never been one to keep fish, and that's OK too.
To each their own, as long as keeping within legal limit.
