If you stock esshups' recommended numbers of SMB-YP then use the rainbow as a bonus fish stocked at low density around 15-20/ac. The more you reduce the SMB-YP for more trout you can add. The more you overstock or higher the standing crop of total fish, the more it will reduce your water quality and increase your chance of a fish kill esp during winter.
