Fifteen steelhead trout, Salmo gairdneri , were assayed for selective blood parameters. The trout were reared under flow‐through conditions at the salmonid aquaculture facility at the University of Rhode Island. The means of the measured haematological parameters were: pH, 7·59 ± 0·05; pCO 2 , 8·5 ± 1·05 mmHg; HCO 3 ‐, 11·9 ± 1·9 meq/1; Ferri‐Hb, 21·7 ± 2·0%; C1‐, 147 ± 17·8 meq/1; Hct, 30·7 ± 4·8%.
