Oncorhynchus mykiss aguabonita
The largest golden trout ever caught measured 28 inches long and weighed 11.25 pounds.
Experts can’t agree if the golden trout is its own species or a subspecies of rainbow trout.
You can find golden trout at elevations up to 10,000 feet above sea level.
When cooked, golden trout possess firm red flesh, and the skin turns pale gold.
