I'm just no good at taking pictures when I'm in the middle of food prep and cooking, but made some great breakfast burritos over a fire put in the Lodge skillets Saturday morning.
I also want to send a shout-out to the good folks on here who encouraged me to season the pans.
It was uncharacteristically damp Friday night, but we left everything out not thinking much of it.
Next morning, all I had to do was wipe the beaded-up dew drops out of my pans, and off my vinegar-patina'd 11, 15 & 5.
My camp-mate's cast-iron dutch oven (which made a fabulous cobbler the night before) had a generous layer of rust on the interior.

My guess it depends on the fish. Trout is so mild if has know effect on the cast iron . As long as its fresh

So, funny this thread popped up, Grandma just gave me one of her cast iron skillets to get it cleaned and reseasoned. She hasn't cooked in close to 10 years and in that time the seasoning she had built up has been scrubbed and soaped off :'( So she asked me to fix one skillet and I was STOKED to do it.
Today I baked the rest of the seasoning off and started anew.
Post-Bake
First coat of Flaxseed oil is on.
For you all wondering, like me, what skillet it is.

Trout is so mild it really has no effect on the cast iron.

carbon sheet steel, not cast iron -- but it seasons the same and is used over fire -- even on the stove.
spicy boudain, mushrooms, onions, and barley all simmered together in red ale.
Looks delicious! I assume you washed it all down with some red ale?

Broccoli soufflé turns out quite nicely in cast iron. 2 helped cut up the green stuff.
