did you guys know they are farming and selling steelhead?
I wonder if these are allowed to swim in salt or if they are fed pellets and dye.
nothing like a large trout dyed red

Yep, I knew that.
Most salmon/steelhead farming is done in Canada and South America (Chile). They also farm Chinook and Coho. They're usually kept in large pens in tidal waters. They're fed antibiotic packed pellet foods, and do horrible things to the ecosystem.
Friends don't let friends eat farmed fish (except freshwater stuff like trout, catfish, tilapia).
yea they been farming sturgeon for a while now.... probably how they can sell baby sturgeon for your fish tanks

While it sure doesn't taste like a wild one, I certainly think Farmed Steelhead/Salmon/Trout is a heck of a lot better than Harvested Steelhead/Salmon/Trout.(If it's done correctly. The cheap places in south America that destroy their own ecosystem are downright disgusting)
Farming is sustainable, and doesn't impact the fish in the rivers. So more fish for us to catch, and more fish for other folks to eat.
I think you need to bit more research on this.
