The Aurora Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis timagamiensis) is a unique variant of the Brook Trout, distinguished by its colouration. It is a member of the Trout and Salmon family (Salmonidae) and has the following characteristics: Looks similar to Brook Trout, yet adult fish lack the yellow marks throughout the dorsal region and exhibit few to no red spots with blue halos; Dorsal surface is typically olive green to dark brown with iridescent steel blue and silver sides and silvery white underparts that are often tinged with pink; Anal, pelvic and pectoral fins with a white leading edge followed by a dark stripe, the rest of the fins are reddish; Caudal fin nearly straight or with a shallow indentation; The largest known Aurora Trout was 3,500 g and 600 mm long. In 2011, the Aurora Trout was determined by the Committee on the Status of Endangered Wildlife in Canada (COSEWIC) to be ineligible for assessment as it did not satisfy the discreteness and significance criteria that would justify its recognition as a designatable unit within Brook Trout. Similarly, it is no longer considered eligible to be designated as a species of risk under Ontario’s Endangered Species Act, 2007 (2011). Reassessment of the species’ status under the federal Species at Risk Act is currently underway. Habitat Distribution of the Aurora Trout in Canada Distribution of the Aurora Trout in Canada. Red dots indicate the native populations. Black dots indicate the introduced populations. The Aurora Trout was native to a few remote, high-elevation lakes in the Temagami district of Ontario, Whirligig Lake and Whitepine Lake, located north of Sudbury. The original native populations were extirpated as a result of lake acidification in the 1960s. Using captive breeding stock, the Aurora Trout were re-introduced into the lakes in the 1990s following improvements in water quality, and have since become self-sustaining populations. It is also stocked in other lakes in northern Ontario. Natural reproduction by Aurora Trout introduced in two non-native lakes is limited. The Aurora Trout is a coldwater species found in clear, cool lakes. Spawning occurs in late October to early November over rubble, sand and gravel in water up to 4 m deep. Females construct redds and embryos are buried in the substrate. Groundwater upwellings are likely important spawning areas. Sexual maturity is reached at two to four years. Aurora Trout have a lifespan of approximately eight years. Threats The Aurora Trout was lost from its natural range due to acid precipitation that disrupted reproduction. Low pH from acid precipitation and runoff is a continuing threat to the Aurora Trout. They are also likely affected by limited habitat (particularly a lack of groundwater springs for spawning and necessary elements for thermal refuge). Inbreeding, resulting from the small genetic pool of captive individuals, is also likely contributing to long-term threats to its viability.

Hi John! Sorry, long comment incoming. I finally got to try my Amok Draumr. I went out on a 2 nighter canoe-camping trip. You were right, I loved it! And thanks for the tip on making sure I setup the straps to the same length (facebook comment). I thought I did, but when I got in the Draumr, it was dipping on one side, so I remembered what you said and set the straps up more evenly. Fixed the problem. After that, it was only a matter of trusting the inside straps to hold on to and pull myself up with them when getting in the Draumr. Also trusting that I could roll around in it (I'm a side sleeper) without having to worry too much about balance, because it is sturdier and better balanced than it can feel at first. I slept well, had a nice view under the tarp and was bug free thanks to the bug net. I had bought the complete setup except for the mug, "I already had a cool mug" (amok equipment website reference :P) and it was all worth it. Thanks for being the ambassador of a really good product! Cheers to you and Erin!

Wow the red does make them sparkle. They probably share the same DNA with the Brook. It's amazing how fast mutations in colors of fish evolve when they are isolated from the general populations. We called the Brooks, Specks where I came from in the NC Mountains. The wild populations were wiped out long ago by the introduced Rainbows and Browns. The native Brooks still hang on in the higher elevations where the waterfalls are too high for the larger trout to navigate. I had some great creeks that were loaded with the little beauties that I never shared to protect them. And I never harvested any of them, never cared for the taste. Just the wonder of being alone in the beautiful, peaceful mountains and looking at the beautiful fish. Been far and wide and experienced many wonderful things but that those days remain very close to unrivaled.

I hope you read this. I bought my first canoe in 2021....an old 86lb Pelican....glad I had her today. I thought I'd canoe to work on Lake Michigan in Chicago. It was only a few blocks - from Foster Ave to Thorndale (easy to track on google maps). For departure, the morning commute was great. Lake Michigan was nearly dead calm, a blazing sunrise, and there were no lifeguards chasing me off the beaches. For the way back, the lifeguards were everywhere making launching problematic. Aside from that, Lake Michigan was very choppy on the way back. So why am I writing to you? The only reason I bought a kayak paddle was because of one your videos. On solo runs, I always felt something was missing so I bought Pelican's lengthiest kayak paddle and CRAP was I happy I had it in that lake chop! I never felt unsafe in that canoe (her 86lbs made good sense at the time) because I felt that the swells, albeit challenging, weren't big enough to compromise my safety but the kayak paddle was HUGE in maintaining momentum which I believe made my commute safer. I don't believe I'll ever get to do canoe trips like yours.....all that wild beauty, camping out, and ruthless weather. But I felt like I really accomplished something today because of your example and persistence. I owned a motor boat years ago (a 17' OMC stern drive, a beauty) but canoeing today was such an amazing experience. Thanks for sharing what you do. I believe you'll be hailed as a classic sportsman that can be an incontestable voice for wilderness. So many people are sloppy, careless, and indignant about nature. You embrace it for it's beauty but tame it in a way that makes one think that nature need not be bulldozed in order to enjoy the great outdoors.

Lucky you! This is making me want to go fishing now! Spectacular trout, Jon. If you're partial to beautiful trout, look up the California Golden Trout. Those fish are the most vibrant and colorful trout I've ever seen. Both rare and considered endangered. There is only a small section of the Sierra Nevada they live in, up a tributary of the Kern River. They exist nowhere else in the range. There is a broodstock lake and a stream on the southern tip of the Eastern Sierra that the state maintains. Catch and release only, and barbless artificial lures. Those trout are on my bucket list to catch. I'm going on a fall trip this year and I hope to get the chance if fires aren't closing the national forest down.

@@98midge Late to the reply, but read my comment again. I said "nowhere else in the range," meaning the Golden Trout are only located in the southern part of the Sierra Nevada, specifically a tributary of the Kern River. Genetically pure Goldens were found in Volcano Creek and some where translocated to Cottonwood Lakes and that area was made into a Broodstock location to help preserve the fish. Of course these fish exist outside of California, but they are native to the Sierra Nevadas. They are not native to the other states they were translocated to. I didn't mean to make it sound like I was trying to say these fish ONLY exist in California. They do not. However, they are native to the range and any other state that has these fish were stocked.

I've seen "Biblical Rains" on KZfaq before. Usually related to camping trips or offroading. Beautiful fish, in a beautiful place. Thanks for sharing.

I liked the evil editor Jon bit. Glad you got your rare fish. Cheers.

The aurora trout, Salvelinus fontinalis timagamiensis, is a variant or subspecies of the brook trout native to two lakes in the Temagami District of Ontario, Canada. The brook trout is a species of freshwater fish in the char genus Salvelinus of the salmon family Salmonidae. It is native to Eastern North America in the United States and Canada, but has been introduced elsewhere in North America, as well as to Iceland, Europe, and Asia. Kinda confusing

It is a pretty fish but it is no trout, thats a char species and a very pretty one, nice place to fish, loving the videos

Yeah it's weird how some trout are a misnomer and are actually char and since the aurora is a colour variant of brook trout, it would be a char too. Thank you!

The thing I learned from this video was from Xander! Thanks for the knot tip. I love simple fixes. Also liked your vocalized inner dialogue. One I have had many times was releasing a fish, planning on eating one I would catch later.... yeah. Glad you got your lunch. Worked out in the end.

Quebec was incredible. Dirt "highways". Then driving on little one lane roads of Rock and potholes. Carrying a boat for miles from lake to lake for Canadian Speckles (trout), smallmouth bass, and Northern pike. Sleeping in a pickup u truck with a cab. Having 300 mosquito bites..

very relaxing. My dad used to take me fishing to places like this in the mountains of east virginia and western maryland back in the 1950's. Especially enjoyed the rain on the tent
