The Rainbow Trout originates from North America. However, thanks to its high status in cuisine and angling, it has been introduced to many areas around the world. The most characteristic feature is its coloring, comprising numerous spots against a bright ‘rainbow’ stripe which runs the length of the body and from which the species derives its name. Without a doubt, the Rainbow Trout is one of the most beautiful and sporting fish targeted by today’s anglers. Like other trout, it feeds on small water animals, insects, and small fish. It is also a species that adapts very easily to new environments.
