Lately I have noticed a bluish shine on the gills of some of the brown trout in the area I fish in. It seems to only occur in brown trout. Some brown trout I have caught do not have this feature so I am curious why some have this.

    That’s a natural brown trout coloration. Super beautiful. It’s caused by habitat and diet from what I understand and seen as an indication the trout is either wild or a holdover stocker that has been living in the wild for a year or more
