About Our Fish

 

All of our rainbow trout are raised on site in our controlled, indoor facility. We receive eyed eggs every 28 days from well-known industry leaders. Fish are raised to an optimal weight of 1 1/2 to 2 pounds.

The main ingredient to producing great-tasting, healthy fish is our water source. Water is pumped from our wells and goes through multimedia filtration with no added chemicals. Our trout remain chemical and drug-free from egg to harvest using the latest sustainable aquaculture practices.

The trout are raised in 55 to 65 degree water and are fed one of the finest, premium diets on the market. This helps provide a very mild flavored, delicious trout.

Benefits of Rainbow Trout

Healthy, Eco-friendly and Delicious

Fish are the best source of omega-3 fatty acides, which can lower your risk of heart disease. The American Heart Association recommends eating 2 servings of fish each week.

Farmed rainbow trout are a great choice and are listed as a “Best Choice” by seafoodwatch.org because they are not exposed to pollutants (such as mercury and PCB) and are raised in sustainable systems wasting very little water.

Trout is a salmonid, as is Salmon, and is very flexible in recipes. It can be used as a substitute in Salmon and Eel recipes or anywhere a mild flavored fish is preferred. Trout can be grilled, smoked, baked, broiled, pan fried or steamed.
