Uhhhhhhh...Speckled trout are sea trout...Not fresh water stream trout...
I kinda thought that they may have been like "Steelhead" trout.
Steelhead Trout is a name given to the anadromous form of the coastal rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus. m. irideus) or redband trout (O. m. gairdneri).
The steelhead are native to freshwater and ocean environments across North America, but have been introduced to every other continent except Antarctica.
O well, live & learn. Thanks for the heads up.
