This is the illusive Golden Trout. It is found only on the East
side of the Sierra Nevada and only in a few locations. What a beautiful fish
this is - no wonder it is the State Fish. There are many catch & release
lakes and other restrictions. There are also some areas where they can be kept.
Biologists are working to find the original dna strain as they seem to be interacting
with Rainbows. Their effort is to maintain the original species.
