If you only know the name of the most beautiful and delicious fish in the world, it is Trout. These fishes are the most popular fish on the market. They’re also the reason fly fishing – arguably, sportfishing in general – exists. People have stocked Trout in the most remote corners of the planet, from Argentina to Tasmania and well beyond. Trout is the tastiest fish in each group. Trout for sale are a treat to the fish lovers from the fish hatcheries in Utah.

Rainbow Trout for sale are the pinkish meat which is mild and delicate, and they’re generally the perfect serving size for one per person. Rainbow Trout doesn’t usually taste too “fishy.” It can sometimes have a slight muddy taste, though, depending on where it was raised.

Rainbow trout are native to the westward draining rivers of North America and also to the Kamchatka Peninsula on the western side of the Pacific Ocean. Although they were not as easy to establish as brown trout, self-sustaining populations of rainbow trout are now widespread in New Zealand and form the backbone of the popular and highly valued fisheries that occur in the lakes and rivers of the central North Island. They also support fisheries in many of the lakes along the eastern flanks of the Southern Alps in the South Island.

The colour pattern of rainbow trout is variable. Lake-dwelling fish are generally uniformly silver with small, darker spots along the back, mainly above the lateral line. The backs of river dwelling fish are often more olive-green, and the red band, or rainbow, along the lateral line more prominent. When rainbow trout move into rivers and streams for spawning, this band intensifies in colour, and red slashes may occur on the cheeks and in the folds beneath the lower jaw.

Rainbow trout can be distinguished from brown trout by the presence of dark spots on the caudal (tail) fin, and from brook char and mackinaw by the absence of pale spots on their sides. Rainbow trout have a short-based anal fin. Most rainbow trout migrate to their spawning grounds, with both lake and river dwelling fish moving upstream to suitable locations, often in small tributaries. Hence they may congregate in large schools just prior to spawning. In lakes without suitable spawning tributaries, spawning can occur along the lakeshore. The main spawning season for rainbow trout is June and July, but the season can be extended to October in some lakes.
