Finally got a call back....

It's not in the Chicago area at all. It's a holding company that works for a bank out of country looking to sell some property "similar" to the picture shown. I was assured there were motorcycles numbering in the hundreds on the property though.

After about 5 minutes of some foreign guy trying to speak horible english I hung up.... Not worth the time.

Salmon Trout are what we call Steelheads.  Basically it is an ocean-going Rainbow Trout.

No crossbreeding here; salmon and trout are the same family of fish.

How did that come up, anyway?

My missus was cooking some the last time I wrote to this thread and I was just mentioning how that advert smelt fishy like the salmon trout smell coming out of the kitchen......freudian slip there.
