Vanderbilt, Michigan Posts: 101	Can you name all of them? Yes, but then I had your help. Hehehehe. Any who, the so called "tiger" trout is interesting since it's a hybrid "native" to Eastern Europe. According to Silvio Calabi in Trout & Salmon Of The World; the "tiger" trout is a cross between a subspecies of the Brook trout and a Brown. That one would've been a real stumper for me and would've guessed an "albino" Brookie, up until this morning I'd never heard of a "tiger" trout....had to look it up in the afore mentioned book. Dano

The Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission actually stocks Tiger Trout sometimes, creating the hybrid in their fish labs. Once in a blue moon natives in streams with brooks and browns will produce hybrid Tigers too, but this is very rare.
