Ketil Trout (in Icelandic, Ketil Hæng) is the name of several figures from Nordic folklore:
- Ketil Trout of Halogaland — the hero of the legendary Ketils saga hœngs.
- Ketil Trout of Namdalen — the name of a chieftain (regarded as the grandson of the above) of early tenth-century Iceland, a cousin of Skalla-Grímr. Ketil features in Egil's Saga and other works.
Famous quotes containing the word trout:
“All those girls
who wore the red shoes,
each boarded a train that would not stop.
Stations flew by like suitors and would not stop.
They all danced like trout on the hook.
They were played with.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
