Barbless Podcast- OP Edition Episode 20: The History of Cutthroat Trout with Dr. Pat Trotter. Hosted by:
First published June 16th, 2020
Show description as written for the Barbless Podcast: "Do you know how many
subspecies of cutthroat trout there are? How about: How old is the species? Why
are there so many subspecies of cutthroat? This episode Dr. Pat Trotter joins
me, the world’s preeminent expert on cutthroat trout. Pat has written two books
on cutthroat, authored book chapters and numerous scientific publications. He
is also a long-time angler and has spent a large part of his life roaming
Western watersheds to better understand cutthroat trout. Tune in to hear about
how Pat became interested in science, why he loves cutthroat so much, how their
evolutionary legacy has been shaped by geology and hydrology, and which
subspecies are most at-risk. Even if you thought you knew cutthroat, this
episode will teach you at least one or two new facts."
Thank you to Chad Alderson, John McMillan and the Barbless podcast for letting me keep this
episode alive and available to the public.
