Male brook trout have been artificially crossed or bred with female lake trout, producing a fertile hybrid known as a splake(from the older name for brook trout, speckled trout, and lake trout).... These hybrids have characters of both parents and are intermediate in appearance. One character used to distinguish the parents is the pyloric caeca, finger-like outgrowths of the stomach, which aid in digestion by producing enzymes. Brook trout have 23-55, lake trout 93-210 and splake 35-99. 4, record 6, English, - splake
