Rainbow Trout
(Salmo gairdneri)
(Talaariq)
The Rainbow trout is special among American game
fishes. They were first discovered in the early 1900's. The Rainbow
trout has demonstrated an unusual ability to adapt to a wide range of
living conditions and has been cultured more widely and successfully
in hatcheries than any other trout.
Sea-going rainbows, known as steelhead, are the
Pacific Ocean counterpart of their close relative, the Atlantic
salmon. There is no physical difference between the steelhead and the
rainbow trout except that the steelhead spends part of its life in
saltwater.
Rainbow trout have a streamlined salmonid form,
though body shape and coloration vary widely and reflect habitat,
age, sex and degree of maturity. The back is usually a greenish color
and the lateral line is usually pink. Below the lateral line it is
silver colored, and on the bottom it is pure white.They have black
spots on the upper part and on the upper fins and tail.
In Alaska Rainbow trout are now flourishing and
they have been introduced in many lakes in Southeastern,
Southcentral, and Interior Alaska.
During the late winter and early spring when the
temperatures are starting to rise they look for a place to spawn, and
some even spawn three times.
The female makes the nest or redd and she may lay
200 to 8000 eggs, depending on her size. The nest protects the buried
eggs during the period of incubation. The eggs may take a couple of
weeks to four months to hatch, depending on the water
temperature.
Alaska has the world's record steelhead, taken
near Ketchikan in 1970. It weighed 42 pounds, 2 ounces.
