Golden trout.

Recommended Posts

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

That's not a golden trout. It's a genetically modified hatchery trout. I think they call them lightning trout. Ed F

Ya not native. They stock them back east. Used to catch them as a kid in Jersey. Cool locking but very susceptible to whirlings disease
