Tiger trout - 12/30/09 03:26 AM
Hello! I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!
I've found a couple of things on the internet about "Tiger trout".... can anyone tell me all about them? They look beautiful and seem quite interesting. Of course, there isn't anyone near us who has them in hatcheries (I think).
What are the benefits of them as opposed to the parents? I'm especially wondering about ideal water temperatures.
Steve and I were talking about it today and I thought I would surprise him tomorrow morning with all kinds of facts and information!
And while I'm at it... we had gotten some Rainbow trout a month or so ago and were told that there were some "Steelhead" trout thrown in. I thought I could tell a difference in a few fish I helped to put in the pond but.... that could be my mind tricking me!!! Can anyone tell us more about "Steelheads"? We were told they are much better "fighters" when catching them.
I know I can research on the internet but I also know I will find honest answers here. We appreciate your advice and help!
Hope everyone is having a nice evening...:)
