Speckled Trout for Sale

[TMO]

On Friday a buddy of mine went to buy shrimp at a place close to Hillman's and he told me the shrimp place had speckled trout for sale. I thought this was illegal and when he asked them they told them they brought them in from Mexico. Anyone know if this is legal or not?? He got a great deal on some shrimp, I can't remember the name of the place but this seemed very odd to me.

I believe there has to be "import tags" or some other pa[perwork that evidences they were from somewhere else.

I've seen 'em in the chinatown grocery store too.
