What trout eat
Today I got a big surprise when I opened the stomach of a trout I caught many bridges down from the last stocking point on the Feeder D&R Canal. Looks like it was a shellfish lover.

Re: What trout eat
Interesting never knew they would go after shellfish. Guess it don't matter what's on the menu when you're starving

Re: What trout eat
Yep seen it a few times. Nothing surprises me any more with what you will find in their stomach. All stocked trout know for the last year in the hatchery that anything they saw that fit in their mouth in the raceways was food. They don't change their habitats once they are stocked

Re: What trout eat
What gets me--how do they distinguish a hard-shelled snail and clam from pebbles. Amazes me.

Re: What trout eat
When they are first stocked they don't. I've cleaned multiple trout with pebbles. But once the smarten up they distinguish the snail and clams from pebbles just like they distinguish an artificial fly from the a real one. It's why you gotta "match the hatch" since if the color, size, shape etc is off it can go from hero to zero very fast
