redd Q A redd is a nest about 30 cm deep that a female trout excavates in the gravel of a stream bed just before spawning. While she digs, males watch with excited anticipation, eager for a signal from her to ejaculate to fertilize the ova she releases into the redd. In a peripherally related vein, the verb to redd is used chiefly in Pennsylvia and means to clean up or tidy, especially an area like a table. It was brought by immigrants from northern England and Scotland, where it is still used. 021110 ...
