Trout is one of the most common and favorite fish and is found all over the world. Trout has many different species like around 17+ species. They are living in fresh running cold water in clear streams and lakes. Trout is an important food source for humans and wildlife. They are known as oily fish.
In Pakistan Common snow trout fish is found. In northern area's of Pakistan many trout fish farming project are running. They are working effectively and producing a large amount of fish in their natural habitat. Some fish farms are owned by the government and many farms also work under govt-public partnership. In Swat Shino trout fish hatchery is a famous govt farm.
In these fish farms they maintain natural water overflow and try to grow fish in natural environment. They are having separate sections for fish. They allocate special indoor space for fry (Baby trout) and give them special care.
When these little fry (Baby trout) grow older then they shift them in another bigger water tank. These water tanks are also in a protected indoor area but are airy and sunlit.
As these trout fry grow older then they shift them in a little bigger out door water tanks. In these fish tanks they are separated according to their size. They maintain fresh water flow so these fish grow naturally.
Trout fish have black marks on them. They are very expensive as one kg cost 3000 Rs. Watching trout closely and also feed them was a very interesting experience. These trout were jumping and fighting with each other when feed was given that Showed their agility and good health. Taking photograph of trout fish into the water was also very difficult for me. Next time if I plan to visit them then I would take my under water camera with me.
