Salmon Trout—-Sebago Lake. 
American Turf Register and Sporting Magazine, Vol. III, 
No. 10, June, 1832, pp. 526-529. 
The writer of this article, a captain (?) at Fort Preble, has 
given the first known account of Salmo sebago. He said: 
“This fish partly resembles in habit and appearance, as the 
name imports, both the salmon and the brook trout, being 
perhaps an intermediate species, and varies from two to four- 
teen pounds weight.” 
“The fish of this beautiful lake are, so far as my observa- 
tion extends, essentially different from those of any other.”
