Bull Trout
 

The bull trout, Salvelinus confluentus, is a char of the family Salmonidae native to northwestern North America.Bull Trout, Dolly Varden as well as large Rainbow Trout can be caught in the North Thompson River or trolling Adams Lake.

Like other species of char, the fins of bull trout have white leading edges. Its head and mouth are unusually large for salmonids, giving it its name. Bull trout have been recorded measuring up to 103 centimetres (41 in) in length and weighing 14.5 kilograms (32 lb). Bull trout may be either migratory, moving throughout large river systems, lakes, and the ocean, or they may be resident, remaining in the same stream their entire lives. Migratory bull trout are typically much larger than resident bull trout, which rarely exceed 2 kilograms (4 lb). Bull trout can be differentiated from brook trout (S. fontinalis) by the absence of distinct spots on the dorsal fin, as well as yellow, orange, or salmon-coloured spots on the back as opposed to red spots with blue haloes on the brook trout. Bull trout lack the deeply forked tail fin of lake trout (S. namaycush, another char).
