Earlier in March I wrote how I thought the Wisconsin DNR was stocking the Kamloops strain of rainbow trout. I was sure it was because this trout's coloration was so different. It didn't have its usual silver sheen and had a dark red stripe instead of the typical pink stripe. However, I recently learned rainbow's spawn in the spring not the fall like browns and brookies. This rainbow was in its spawning colors but not a different strain. Look at the photos of the different rainbows and notice the differences.
