Tailoring

Rainbow Trout can be used in the spool of the Sewing Machine to create the dyeable Fish Shirt.  

It can also be used as an orange dye in the dye pots located in Haley's and Emily's house, 2 Willow Lane.

Fish Pond

Rainbow Trout can be placed in a Fish Pond, where they will reproduce every 2 days. The initial pond capacity is 3 fish, but the capacity can be increased to 10 by completing three quests. The primary output is orange Rainbow Trout Roe. However, more valuable items are possible starting at population 9, including a 0.09% daily chance of producing a Prismatic Shard.

History

  • 1.4: Added iridium quality. Can now be used in Tailoring.
  • 1.4.4: Fixed a mistake in the game data that prevented rainbow trout-specific fish pond data from being applied (in earlier versions, rainbow trout used the same fish pond data as all generic river fish).
  • 1.5: Special Order quest added.
  • 1.6: Can now be caught during the entire day and in the rain when the Trout Derby festival is active.
