is sea trout also salmon
In general, the sea trout is stouter than the salmon, and broader at the neck of the tail. It is said that when held by the tail, a sea trout will slip through the fingers, while a salmon will hold steady. In appearance, the salmon is slender and streamlined, while the sea trout is more round and thickset. The salmonâs head is pointed, but the sea troutâs is rounder. A salmonâs color has relatively few spots, but the sea trout is often heavily spotted.
