Rainbow Trout With a Mouth Full of Teeth!
I was fishing a tailwater over the weekend and caught two rainbows. The first was like every other rainbow I have caught. The second one was darker and came with a mouth full of teeth, including teeth on its tongue. Every field guide that I have come across specifically says "Rainbow trout do not have teeth on their tongue" yet here one is. Has anyone else seen anything like this?

I sent an email to the biologist in that area with the pictures attached and sent an email to the info center at fw.ky.gov. So far I haven't heard back from either but it has only been one day.

Re: Rainbow Trout With a Mouth Full of Teeth!
I used to live in Louisiana, and we caught alot of salt water specks, (trout), had mouths like that but not with the rainbow colors they were darker and they could live in brackish water, not exactly salt water, not exactly fresh water. You may very well have a new sub spiecies there hope you froze that bad boy!!
PS note to self DO NOT REPEAT DO NOT THUMB LIP THAT NEXT TROUT WITH OUT LOOKING FIRST!!
Re: Rainbow Trout With a Mouth Full of Teeth!
