Coyote Peterson Caught a Beautiful Rainbow Trout!

Coyote Peterson is at Bell Creek. He is trying to find a rainbow trout. Coyote Peterson said normally people would be fly fishing to catch the rainbow trout but he is going to make his own net that is made of, a long stick, rope, and his shirt. He also said that Mark and Mario don't believe that he is going to catch the rainbow trout, But Coyote Peterson does think that he is going to catch the fish. 

Coyote Peterson sees a whole pocket of trout fish, but the fish are in deep water so Coyote Peterson said he is going to move upstream and find a narrow pocket of water where he can go knee-deep and try to catch a rainbow trout. Coyote Peterson found a really big pond! He said it's actually a really great chance for him to catch one because the fish are not in deep water. The fish do not like the light because there could be predators so they go under big rocks. Mark got a stick and started poking under the rocks a little to get the fish to come out and then Coyote Peterson can try and catch the fish. On their tenth try, they finally got the rainbow trout!

Coyote Peterson said if the rainbow trout is out of water for a little bit it will get stressed out! He also said to identify the rainbow trout is to see if the fish has a green line and a pretty pinkish stripe. if it does then that means it's a rainbow trout!

The rainbow trout eats little fish, crustaceans, other fish eggs. A group of trout is called a hover. The reason why it's called a hover is that when they swim they go back and forth very slowly keeping their balance, the water is just flowing, and then in a burst of speed, they go in the darker and deeper water of pockets. 

Coyote Peterson said it took them three hours to catch the rainbow trout!
