Abstract
Studies were conducted to determine the length of time required to purge a muddy-earthy flavor taint from pond cultured rainbow trout (S. gairdneri) transferred to 2 different clear water environments. Sensory data from trained judges show that 5 days were required for fish transferred to a rapidly changing purified artificial water environment and 16 days for fish transferred to a relatively static natural water environment to reduce this taint to threshold levels of recognition or below.
