Wild Brook Trout in Chinquapin

10.19.2022

Thanks go to Ashley Dobbins for the video captured at Robinson Creek, at Fish Shack, in early October, and to Jim Wiygul for the fish information.

The trout in the video are wild native brook trout. This time of year, the brook trout start preparing to spawn which means the female will lay the eggs and the male will then fertilize them.

They are the only native trout east of the Rocky Mountains!
