    Hi 8pt Sika.
    The nice 9lb rainbow yr son caught would be about 12 to 15 months old.Two yrs ago a 16 lb trout was caught in the canel with a tag attached.It was handed in to Fish n Game for data checking.They found the trout was only about 2 yrs old and release as a small trout 4'' long.They reckon the trout around the salmon farms are growing about 7 to 9 lbs a year living on salmon pellets(Xmas cake).

    Thanks for that mate, that's quite interesting.
