Trout fishing is an American past-time that spans generations. Americans love to fish. At the top of the list is trout. It is a fisherman’s favorite fishing target. Trout can be found all over the United States. They can be typically found in lakes, rivers, creeks and streams where the water is cool and clear. Trout are also found around the world both in Asia and in Europe. Many trout species live in both fresh and salt water. Normally salt water trout will return to their fresh water homes to spawn.
