 Two kinds of trout are commercially important in the U.S., domestic rainbow trout and imported sea trout. Rainbow trout's name is derived from the reddish pink stripe that runs along the lateral line. Meat color varies from pink to red depending on feed. All commercial rainbow trout, by law, are raised in captivity — mostly in southern Idaho. The South American Sea Trout is an economical fish generally sold in retail stores. It has a mild flavor and a good food value.
