Brook Trout

The Brook Trout can be found in cold water habitats of small headwater streams located within the Black Hills. They feed primarily on insects and crustaceans. 

These torpedos like fish have small scales and a large mouth. The tail (caudal) fin is rounded and has a white leading edge on the pelvic, pectoral and anal fins. The dark body will have light wormlike markings and the spots on the side may be red circled by blue. Breeding males have red/maroon bellies and fins.
