Rainbow Trout.jpg Interestingly enough, trout is the common name given to a number of freshwater fish belonging to the salmon family, Salmonidae. There are several different types of trout, although few groceries specify the difference. There is adriatic trout, apache trout, brook trout, Dolly Varden trout, aurora trout, flathead trout & ohrid trout.

Trout are usually found in cool, clear streams and lakes. They are distributed naturally throughout North America, nothern Asia & Europe. Trout have fins entirely without spines, and all of them have a small apidose, or fatty fin along the back, near the tail. They usually feed on soft-bodied aquatic invertebrates such as mayfly, caddis fly or Diptera.

Trout that live in different environments can have dramatically different colorations and patterns. Mostly, these colors and patterns for camouflage, based to their surroundings. It is virtually impossible to define a particular color patter as belonging to a specific breed, however, in general, wild fish are claimed to have more vivid colors & patterns.
