Somewhere in the editing process of this video I somehow accidentally excluded the bear lake cutthroat trout. For those who were wondering, this was the 4th cutthroat species.

I think they need their own video! My Roman Empire is the top dwelling fish in bear lake and the beautiful turquoise color they have evolved to match the lake!

Thanks for putting this together! Really cool. Were Lahontan cutthroat once native to Utah?
@WildaboutUT3 ай бұрын
That's a good question. I've heard of there being reports of Lahontan Cutthroat in some areas near the Nevada border. However, the DWR doesn't list the Lahontan Cutthroat on their official list of native species. I'll have to do some more research and see why that is.

@@WildaboutUT it's possible they're native to Nevada and someone had just transferred them to some Utah streams. I also read about them being revived from near extinction out of a Utah stream, which is why I'm curious.

I love your videos. I caught a "rainbow trout" the other day as well as a brown trout and a regular rainbow trout. The "rainbow" I caught has odd coloration. Can't find anything like it on google. It doesn't have solid pigments like a rainbow. All the scales are shiny and reflective, though it bares resemblance in coloration, but no solid markings like the green top and black spots, etc. All shiny scales. Thoughts? This river contains brown and rainbow trout, as well as Bear River Cutthroat, troutwise.

@@hydraxc2478 Thanks! I'm so glad you like the videos. Rainbow trout can be very variable in their appearance. I have caught a few that seem to match a similar description of what you described. Most recently I caught one that was almost completely silver out of Joe's valley Reservoir. My guess would be that you just caught a unique looking rainbow.

@@WildaboutUT That's what I thought too. It just sucks because nothing on google about it. I searched for everything under the sun, even toyed with the idea of a hybrid but it's developed like a rainbow. You'd think there would be something like it out there in the ether. Maybe I'll call wildlife game and see if they can tell me if it's a mutation or something.

It makes me sad that we’ve brought in so many non native fish which have hurt many of our native fish. I spearfish every week and almost never see any of these fish. The fish I do see in order of seen the most are 1. Smallmouth Bass 2. common carp 3. Walleye. I love a good walleye but it would be great to see our native species.

Awesome video. Small correction. The cutthroat trout in strawberry are Bear Lake cutthroats, not bonneville cutthroat.
@WildaboutUT7 ай бұрын
Thanks for watching! Since posting this video I have heard both Bear Lake and Bonnevilles for Strawberry. I'll have to double check with the DWR and see what they say.

Great video, one pioneer ancestors talk about someone catching large fish (largest one he had seen) and they ate it. I always wonder which what native fish it was.
