Aquaculture
Research shows value of salt water rainbow trout
United Press International
GULF SHORES, Ala. —
Rainbow trout and shrimp
raised in salt water ponds may
one day become cash crops in
coastal Alabama if commercial
ventures are as successful as a
recent research project, a ma
rine biologist said Thursday.
John Hawke, a marine bi
ologist at the State Department
of Conservation and Natural
Resources’ Peteet Mariculture
Center, said commercial aqua-
cuUure projects already exist in
Texas and Florida.
He said rainbow trout mostly
are grown in the fresh water
mountain streams of Tennessee
or states farther north, but re
search at Peteet indicates the
fish can survive in salt water
and can endure Alabama’s
warmer temperatures.
The Peteet project involved
13 dirt-bottom ponds filled with
salt water. A record harvest of
about 3,200 pounds of rainbow
trout was completed Wednes
day. The fish, which were fed
commercial trout pellets, aver
aged a half-pound and 10 to 12
inches in size.
“That’s well-accepted by the
restaurants in this area,” Hawke
said. “I personally don’t think
there’s any difference in the
taste of these fish and those
those from fresh water.”
A South American variety of
shrimp was raised at Peteet
from May through October.
Then six-inch rainbow trout
fingerlings were placed in the
man-made ponds in December.
Hawke said the experiment
generated about 1,000 pounds-
per-acre of shrimp and 1,300
pounds-per-acre of rainbow
trout.
The shrimp sell for $2.50 to
$3.50 a pound dockside. A
pound can be anywhere from
21 to 30 shrimp. The trout sell
for $1.90 a pound dressed and
$1.40 a pound if they haven’t
been cleaned.
“We feel the shrimp alone
would show a profit and the
trout will be icing on the cake,”
Hawke said.
He said it was no surprise
that the trout were able to
thrive in salt water.
“Up north and in Ganada,
trout may stay at sea a year or
make a spawn run similar to
salmon,” he said. “What some
people call a steelhead trout is a
rainbow that’s gone to sea and
come back heavier and grayer
in color.”
The Peteet biologists have
been experimenting with four
different strains of rainbow
trout to see which has the best
survival rate in warm water.
Hawke said one strain is said to
thrive in water temperatures as
warm as 80 degrees.
