Alberta Provincial Fish
Bull Trout
Bull Trout, salvelinus confluentus (May 2, 1995).
The Bull Trout, one of eight species found in Alberta's glacial fed waters, is often confused with the brook trout, but lacks black markings on its dorsal fins.
In order to ensure Alberta's population of bull trout never becomes endangered, there is a catch and release policy governing all bull trout fishing in the province.
