Q. What is the average lifespan of a trout?
A.
I'm sorry, but I can't answer this for you.
Lifespans vary by species, habitat, and many
other aspects, so it would take considerable
research to give you any kind of definitive
answer. Suffice it to say that a 15 year old
trout is about the upper limit.
