Cecil, I don't know a whole lot about trout, but do know that way back when, Chuck Yeager, famous West Virginian, actually experienced golden trout fishing in CA during one of his tours of duty and was so taken with them that he bought a whole bunch and flew them home so he could have access to them here. I don't remember the full story, just that he brought them here and they probably took off from there, with our DNR possibly jumping on the golden bandwagon, too. I recall this from a book I read about Yeager many, many years ago so I'm quite fuzzy on the details.
