Del Valle Sat 12/13 - NO Fish in that lake!!!!

Is that darker trout a different species from the others?

No, they both Rainbow Trout, but the darker one is from Mt Lassen hatchery. They grow bigger and faster. They are the fish planted from the fee's from the daily permit. The small planters are from DFG.

Love those freaky Mt.Lassen things!!

Thanks for the explanation. I thought maybe I had discovered a new species.
