Description of Brown Trout
Native to Europe and western Asia, brown trout were introduced to North America
in the late 1800s. Brown trout are often reclusive, hanging out close to
underwater structure, such as fallen trees and undercut banks. Larger specimens
are often caught near dark and after rain storms that result in dingy water.
