Roofer Billy Report post Posted February 23 Has anyone ever caught a golden coloreds rainbow trout? Today while fishing for trout. I caught a golden colored trout. Came home and looked at the odds off catching one. It says 1.8 billion to one odds. And in the 50s they were native in northern California. I've never seen one until today 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BOWUNTR Report post Posted February 23 That's not a golden trout. It's a genetically modified hatchery trout. I think they call them lightning trout. Ed F 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
