Some time ago this topic was brought up on a Mean Mouth Bass. I thought it might be fun to do this fish, even though it will be easy, well maybe. Have a little fun and do the research; can you identify this fish? OK, let's try this again. Warning, it might not be as easy as you think, and if you want, PM me and I'll e-mail you a higher resolution photo you can zoom in on.

It looks like the fish my father and I caught in Anahim Lake, BC when I was but a high school student in the 80's. The fish up there were mostly hybrid cuttbows, rainbow and cutthroats, though up there they called them cuttheads. The fish pictured looks to have been hatchery raised as the tail fin shows signs of re-growth after being worn down.

Cuttbow

I think I'll just go ahead and mix things up a bit. I believe the fish pictured is, at best, a hybrid rainbow entering the spawn stage. I don’t think its a cutbow because the skin color is not yellow enough and the spots on its body are much smaller than the average cutbow.

Could that be a Rainbow/Coastal Cutt cross...rather than a Rainbow/Westslope Cutt Cross? Even pure Coastal Cutts look a lot like 'Bows, y'know.

I'm going to have to go Brood Stock Bow. Notice the tail is worn off on the edges from swimming in a cement pond.

Can you send me a "hunk" of DNA (one fillet will work just fine... ) Anglinarcher??  Some sort of hybrid is my guess.....tough to tell exactly what though. It's a nice fish in my book, whatever it is!!
I have caught many fish in my life. The most exciting? The next one.....

See the head shape and coloring.Its a Donaldson Steelhead mix .Those were raised in the hatchery at Seward Park.Donaldsons have that cutty look.
When youre up to your rear end in alligators,its hard to remember that the initial plan was to drain the swamp.

Atlantic Salmon and RBT cross.
Why didn't anyone see it before?
The gods do not deduct from a man's alloted span the amount of time spent fishing. So why am I not out there?
SPEEDING. What's your excuse?
