Hard to make out the vermiculations in the photo... but I'm fairly certain that there is a tiger trout. Nature's most formidable foe.

Or maybe a saugeye. They look the same to me. I think it's the rainbow coloration that tricks me.

Man asked a question in good faith and gets a bunch of smartasses!!!!!! Why this site has the reputation that it does !!! Disgusting!!!!!!!
he got the right answer with the first response. Its obviously a steelhead. And then the fun begins. Lighten up, not worth getting upset over.
