Been studying up and there are a lot more trout in America than I thought. Just recently discovered the Apache and Gila trout. I think it would be awesome to get the grand slam of trout in America. First I would have to discover all of them and then find out where they live in order to go after them. I may make this happen shortly. Heading to PA this week to go after native Brook, Browns and possibly some Rainbows if they ever started breeding in my area.
Growing up, we never ate any stocked trout, just the natives.Stocked trout were always mushy and very little taste. Now, I don't even want to eat the natives because I am not to keen on removing them from their environment but I am going to keep a few because I miss eating them.
