	Brook trout - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The brook trout is native to streams, lakes, and spring ponds.
		Though commonly considered a trout, the brook trout is actually a char, along with lake trout, bull trout, dolly varden and the arctic char.
		The brook trout is of dark green to brown basic colouration with a distinctive marbled pattern (called vermiculations) of lighter shades across the flanks and back and extending at least to the dorsal fin, and often to the tail.

	Brook Trout
		Brook trout spawn in the fall between mid October to early December, usually, in shallow areas near springs where there is clear cold spring water upwelling through gravel.
		The normal life span of brook trout in ponds is approximately five to six years and their normal feed would be animal protein, such as: insect larva, supplemented with crayfish, salamanders, tad poles.
		Hatchery raised trout become 'imprinted' with commercial trout feed (for the most part) and it is reasonable to suggested that hatchery raised fish should continued on the same diet once released into a pond.

	Report: Maine in good shape for brook trout populations - Boston.com
		But the report, "Eastern Brook Trout: Status and Threats," also cautions that Maine's brook trout are under pressure from the introduction of non-native fish species and growing development pressures.
		Brook trout populations remain strong in only 5 percent of their historical habitat in the eastern United States, the report says, while being eliminated from 19 percent of their historic habitat.
		Still, the report said brook trout in nearly one in four of the lakes and ponds studied in Maine also were suffering because of non-native fish species such as smallmouth bass, perch and muskellunge, which with trout compete for food.

		The brookie is the only true trout that is native to the Eastern United States, and according to Lee Keefer, a DNR fisheries biologist out of the Lake Burton Hatchery, their range is limited by the fact that they don't compete well with other fish.
		The fins along the bottom of brook trout have a distinctive white leading edge followed by a fl streak with the rest of the fin displaying various shades of red, orange and yellow.
		Because of their small size, however, most brook trout streams support low numbers of adult trout and these should be returned to the stream to spawn again.
