Description:
Rainbow trout have very small, fine scales on their torpedo-shaped bodies. They have silvery sides with a horizontal pinkish band that varies in intensity in different populations. Their back is bluish to greenish with black spots on their back and sides.
Facts:
Because rainbow trout are unable to survive through the summer in most areas, the species is primarily used in winter “put-and-take fisheries” or as a supplemental forage fish for bass during the winter months. Learn more about how our Pond Stocking services will recommend proper pond stocking ratios and species according to your pond’s goals.
Spawning Characteristics:
The rainbow trout will not spawn in Texas ponds.
