Sauté until onion is tender, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, clam juice, lemon juice, and honey. Cook just until liquids begin to simmer, about 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat. Stir in tarragon. Season salsa to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon salsa over trout. Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds and serve. *Ancho chili powder is available in the spice section of most supermarkets.
