Field Notes

Description:

This Rainbow trout is a blue green with dark spots and a reddish lateral line. This one may have come from the stocked lake that is fed from this creek and somehow got trapped in the creek. Judging by the discoloration it has either been to exposed or its age.

Habitat:

Spotted in a shallow creek
