Thank you.
Andy, anything to the color of the meat showing how long the trout has been released into natural waters, or is it just age?

The pellets they feed them at the hatchery has an ingredient, carotene (carrots), that imparts the desirable orange color to the flesh.

They feed the same to farm raised salmon.

The main stem of the Raritan river is stocked from the Headgates dam in Duke Island Park to the Rt 206 crossing in Somerville.

Congrats on the PB Trouts guys! The Rainbows are going to eat good with these cooler than normal temps.
