Bull trout have small, pale yellow to crimson spots on a darker background, which ranges from olive
green to brown above, fading to white on the belly. Spawning adults develop varying amounts of red on the belly. However, trout vary in size, body characteristics, coloration, and life history behavior based on their region.
They can grow to more than 20 pounds (9 kg) in lake environments. Bull trout that live in streams rarely exceed 4 pounds (2 kg). The larges bull trout ever recorded weighed 32 pounds (14.5 kg).
Bull trout are found primarily in upper tributary streams and several lake and reservoir systems across northwestern North America. The main populations remaining in the lower 48 states are in Montana, Idaho, Oregon and Washington with a small population in northern Nevada. In Canada, bull trout can be found in BC and Yukon Territory, and as far east as Alberta.
Bull trout thrive in water temperatures generally below 55 °F (13 °C), clean gravel beds, deep pools, complex cover such as snags and banks, and large systems of interconnected waterways to accommodate spawning migrations.
Bull trout reach sexual maturity at between four and seven years of age and are known to live as long as 12 years.
Small bull trout eat terrestrial and aquatic insects but shift to preying on other fish as they grow larger. Large bull trout are primarily fish predators. Bull trout evolved with whitefish, sculpins and other trout and use all of them as food sources.
They spawn in the fall after temperatures drop below 48° Fahrenheit (8°C), in streams with cold, unpolluted water, clean gravel and cobble substrate, and gentle stream slopes.

Seriously though, a fun to use fishing i
