I find this very interesting. Wish this was still the case.
October 13, 1892 Lennie Goodridge caught a true brook trout yesterday, in the North Saskatchewan river at the lower ferry landing. The colored specks on it's sides were clearly marked. The mountain trout that are very common have grey specks.
The lower ferry landing in 1892 would have been around Capilano/Gold Bar in east Edmonton.
