Rainbow Trout Water Temp

2015-12-11 I recently created two figures to accompany the quick reference poster of water quality on the Henrys Fork that was featured in our blog post on October 30th.

Rainbow trout water temp. The optimal feeding and movement water temperatures for them is 44 to 67 degrees. When the water temperature hits 68 degrees both species will begin to get stressed. Rainbows and Browns are the more hardy of the trout family which is why most states choose to stock them.

2014-10-29 The Water Temperature Game. 68F Temperature at which anglers should consider not fishing for trout. The upper lethal temperature for adults is approximately 27C and temperatures from 22 to 24C are considered life threatening Alberta Athabasca Rainbow Trout Recovery Team 2014.

Peak spawning activity can occur as late as mid-October with spawning completed by early November. Preferred water temperature 52. I would recommend NOT using a glass dish but to cook it in metal.

67F Temperature at which trout significantly decrease feeding. Easy and quick - only 30 minutes from start to finish. Most brook trout spawn annually after reaching maturity.

Rainbow Trout in general are a cold-water species with preferred temperatures ranging from 7 to 18C. Females are able to produce up to 2 000 eggskg of body weight. They strictly avoid residing in waters above 18 C.

Extensive research and observations indicate that adult lake rainbow trout prefer a temperature between 7-18 C 446 F to 644 F. 75F Temperature at which Rainbow trout stop growing. When we added the little bit of water to the pyrex dish as instructed the entire pyrex dish shattered in our oven.
