History of the Golden Rainbow Trout
While this fish is commonly called the golden trout in West Virginia, it is more properly named the golden rainbow trout. That’s because these fish are in fact a mutated strain of the rainbow trout, and have been selectively and successfully bred by West Virginia Division of Natural Resources biologists. Despite being golden in color, West Virginia’s golden rainbow trout are not related to the California golden trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss aguabonita), which is a subspecies of rainbow trout found high up in the streams of the Sierra Nevada. Introduced to the public in 1963 as part of West Virginia’s centennial celebration, the golden rainbow trout took several years to develop. In the fall of 1949, the Petersburg State Trout Hatchery in Grant County received 10,000 rainbow trout fry from a California strain as a gift from the White Sulphur Springs Federal Hatchery. Less than 300 survived, but those fish were bred over the years to create a brood stock that went on to produce a single embryo that started the golden strain.
In early 1955, sharp-eyed Petersburg Trout Hatchery Manager Vincent Evans noticed a yellow-mottled fingerling swimming among thousands of other trout fry. Evans named the juvenile fish “Little Camouflage” and moved it to a separate rearing pond. Later that year, Evans transferred to the Spring Run Hatchery and Chester Mace took over at Petersburg. Mace and his assistant, David Cochran, took special interest in Little Camouflage. By mid-summer of 1956, the fish had grown to 14 inches and its spotted coloring turned into a wide band of golden scales. Mace and Cochran determined the fish was female, a revelation that opened some interesting possibilities.
In October 1956, 900 eggs from Little Camouflage were fertilized with milt from a regular rainbow trout male. When the eggs hatched at Petersburg, the small fry grew into fingerlings, but none showed a trace of their mother’s golden color. That winter, the fingerlings were sent along with 500,000 other fish to the rearing ponds at Spring Run. In February 1957, attendants noticed that several of the small fish were turning a pale-yellow color. Within a few weeks, nearly 300 became golden in color.
A Golden Experiment
As the fish got older, they also got “golder.” In 1957, DNR’s fish division chief Dr. Edward C. Kinney and his staff conducted spawning experiments to produce trout with the desired color. Within two years, more than 90 percent of the eggs hatched showed golden coloring. Although the first fish in this experiment were small, additional selective breeding brought future broods up to the size and vigor of regular rainbow trout. With their success, game fish specialists knew they had something that would be of interest to the state’s anglers and attract visitors to fish in West Virginia.
The Golden Age: 1963
After years of breeding, it was time to introduce the new golden rainbow trout to the public. After some experimental stockings in 1962, DNR biologists decided West Virginia’s centennial in 1963 would be the appropriate time to properly release the golden rainbow trout by including them in regular rainbow trout stockings across the state. One golden rainbow trout was stocked for every 10 regular rainbows, a ratio maintained to this day. The new fish were officially dubbed “The Centennial Golden Trout,” and they bore two tags: a yellow one anglers could keep as a souvenir and an orange one they could submit for a chance to win a prize.
Arent they sterile?
Dude you just hit us with the facts
Down town bellefonte PA> catch and release, I like to eat some I go where I can harvest some to eat cause I like to eat fish. but yea those eggs really work. wv golden trout crossed with a rainbow trout.
Wow those are some beautiful fish
I just found out when trout fishing season opens up & starts for 2018 right here in Bethlehem Pennsylvania(( Saturday March 31st)) I am hyped up and I'm excited and I cannot wait. Like seriously I was up to Cabela's and bought at least $180.OO worth of pautzke Fireball salmon eggs. And different types of colors as well. So I'm pretty much ready for the next two years for trout fishing. I can't help it I love using pautzke salmon eggs + I also do have to say they work 50 times much faster and better than Berkley powerbait and gulp alive & I do catch a lot more trout with pautzke. The best there is the best there was and the best there will ever be & also they out fish Berkley powerbait and gulp alive as well. Also I was just wondering whereabouts in Pennsylvania is that cuz it does look very familiar who knows maybe I passed it couple times. Also it looks like a fantastic place to trout fish as well.
Shawn,
Thanks for being part of Team Pautzke. This is Spring Creek.
Pautzke Bait truly you are very welcome from the bottom of my heart. and I'm very proud to be part of the team. Also have a Merry Christmas and a fantastic New Year.
You're welcome. - West Virginia
Beautiful fish
And the animal crossing golden trout is still shaking me to my core
Ordered the chinok fire ball to get these golden yellow trout at my fishing spot
I caught one of these on a Berkeley minnow and one on a night crawler. Usually they’re a pain in the butt to catch. I’ll try out the salmon eggs!
I'm at 11 of these this year in PA
Everyone in the world has caught there first trout on Pautzke green top!
nice , I am thinking to get pautzke bait , never tried before , just powerbait
I live in pa and caught many golden rainbows
Lucky guy!
Where I fish I rarely get fish
So that’s what they look like outside of animal crossing
Please tell me the river you’re fishing. I live in the upper peninsula of Michigan and have caught many of trouts and salmon. But it has been a dream of mine to fish for a golden rainbow. I’ve been planning a trip to PA to fish but I’ve never been there and wouldn’t know where to start. Any advice for a fishing expedition of a life time would be amazing. Thanks 🙏
americans have the most beautiful trouts
Im trying to get a golen rainbow trout that is VERY picky, only thing its hit so far was my friends sculpin, but it got off. I got the natural deluxe eggs because i figured it would be the best color for the golden because its the most natural. Would you have reccomended that or a different color/scent?
What they prefer changes daily!
Red label, works great, natural deluxe also works well
I've caught many on the premium
Is this in Bellefonte ?!
We have these in forth worth tx to boys in our good ol trinity river
That’s a palomino aka a swimming banana not a golden trout
Rainbow trout are legendary and GOLD RAIN BOW BOIS BE i gootta pee brb

Good Video. I wonder Why So many people, Mispronounce "Gama Katsu" as Gama Gatsu 🤔😃
Good luck
Dude I must be lucky. where I live i see over 10 goldens a day where they stocked in my area.
What county?
Where is this
Pennsylvania
where is this at like what town
Woo pa
What river is this?
I live in pa and they are called Palomino trout where are you guys fishing at
Hi Mike,
In PA they are golden rainbows. Please check the PA FBC's website for the scientific explantation.
Mike, they haven't been technically called palominos for quite a while. They changed the genetics and are now golden rainbows. However lots of people still call them palominos. That's fine, but they are doing it erroneously.
Do the soft plastics that the fireballs are, stay on the hook any better?
Fire Balls aren't plastic.
Chris they are 100% real salmon eggs. How you feeling about 75% of the time when I'm doing my trout fishing. Also I've been using them since I was about 13 years old. I am now 43 years old I've been using them for a very long time. Also I had about 98% success he's any semen tanks more than anything.
Just use real brown trout egg you have to harvest
Palomino
Those big rainbow trout are normal in the fingerlakes of new york state
NY stocks golden rainbows now?
Hometown Bellefonte pa
Cornbread and grape soda
Where can you buy the new paukatze salmon eggs
Where do you live? You are talking about Fire Balls, correct?
Pautzke Bait yes
Where do you live?
Sacramento California
Bass Pro Shops, Sportsmans & Fisherman's should have them. Walmart will have them starting March 1. Please always call ahead to ensure they are in stock.
You never know what is going to bite your hook.
That’s a palimino
In PA, they are referred to as golden rainbows.
@@TeamPautzke in seems like every one says palimino in PA
Does it honestly matter, I live in PA, and everyone calls it a palomino. Just call it what u want
Have you guys ever been to Oregon
An endless number of times.
nice video!!
subscribed and liked
Do the new fireballs float?
No - they fish like real salmon eggs do.
Ok thanks. Looks like my Walmart just stocked the fire balls I’ll have to try them out.
I was fishing at my local rainbow trout lake in Houston, and some guy caught a golden rainbow. I was amazed, and I highly doubt I can catch one of these..
These golden trout are fun to catch but that's it. They don't taste as good as a regular rainbow. They are easy to catch with trout magnets too.
Thanks for watching!
Cephas T I cought I 18 inch Goldie on a trout magnet
This is ridiculous where I live they almost never stock anything like that ,or I have to fish yellow breach’s were people come from outa state and it’s really crowded. Where is everyone in this video???? If I was fishing there would have been like 20 people there standing right next to me.
Ok you need to get you facts right I've lived in PA for 14 years and I know over 300 people that call a Palomino a Palomino not a golden rainbow or a lightning trout and I study about fish and fishing tactics I even wrote my own book (not published yet) I even have one as a pet and I've been studying it for a while not try to come off as an ass but I know my stuff
We have our facts straight and suggests you read this blog - that comes from the top:

Bass Slayer,
Please read this one, too, so the info on your book is correct: lancasteronline.com/sports/outdoors/golden-rainbow-trout-not-palominos-swim-in-pa-waters/article_4bb35098-feb9-11e5-a5a6-13be0684b0ca.html
The fish comission calls them golden rainbows, palimino is a nickname
Me and my buddy have really been hammering them this year and it's got to the point where I just call them Goldfish😂
Not exactly the same when it comes to texture ..a bit mushy .even when in a river environment for awhile .not as good eating ...really not .
You guys stocked it yourselves before you fished bc they only stock trout in the spring in PA
This is a public stream. The state doesn't stock it. Please check your facts prior to making comments like these.
Okay even if the state didn’t stock it then a club would have to and unless it is a massive club hatchery which I doubt it is they wouldn’t stock in the fall , there is a PA trout season for a reason
Jake - we checked with the PA Fish & Boat Commission - it was stocked last spring. This is mid Dec.
Jacob Loy there also is a smaller fall trout season in PA
This stream is catch and release fishing only, so unless the fish die naturally they are in the stream for years
allmost lisned to a full second of the intro song without muteing and now my ears are burning! send help! great video bad intro!
Don't worry. We will tell you where the fish are.
The real name for this fish is the “palomino trout”
Check again:)
Pautzke Bait actually pautzke is incorrect they are called palomino trout not golden trout, golden trout are only found in high mountain lakes in California
u obviously didn't watch the video. its a modified palomino trout. he never even said golden trout. he said golden rainbow.
Ergggggg wrongggggg do your research first before commenting
Yeah guys it’s called research like my boy stretch they r palomino trout not golden trout, there r golden trout but we’re ur fishing it’s not called that
Not very impressed with the balls of fire here in Nevada.
Hi Aaron,
Maybe try a different presentation? We caught limits in five minutes with them for a week in Nevada. Line size, hook size, sinker size, etc, make a huge difference.
7lb LOL
Hahaha there’s no such thing as a golden rainbow trout cause golden trout is a medium yellow fish and a rainbow trout is a big silvery green fish
Kosta Leotta idiot, it is a mutant descended from the Palomino female of the 1950’s. It’s famous!
Where is this
