To all the fish experts out there! I caught this fish sunday moring in 75 fow on a 300 copper on a SS mag spoon. I was told it could possibly be a splake coho or skamamia , it was 9.74 lbs. Does anyone know what the species for sure ?

This is from the DNR book. Seems like no help. If you search what joe wrote in google images "Brown Trout seeforellen strain.". There are people holding up that same fish. I'm going to say joe wins.

This may help. I put this together a couple years ago, it seemed a lot of guys that fish the lower end of Lk Huron caught browns and were calling them atlantics. I put the red lines in on the jaw to show the difference. The top and bottom fish (atlantic) are the same fish with the middle fish a brown.

i sure am glad im not a fish expert, as your fish looks just like a atlantic to me. the mouth extends to the back of the eye and it has the x,s on the upper part of the body. but like i said i dont know the difference from one fish to another. im just going by the picture of both fish. no offence given.

Remember, Atlantics are a salmon, Salmo salar-deep forked caudal fins, spots are more sporadic and weaker than a brown trout's, sharper angle to the head and jaw, lending a more torpedo-like lateral appearance. You can go the vomer tooth count route, but it is not very easy to do when the fish is long dead.

Hey Ryan its a Brown trout.

Browns= spots below latera line

square tail

Atlantic spots-[x's] only above lateral line

Slighty forked tail

mouth usually black-dark inside

Mouth does not extend beyond the eye.

I caught an atlantic out of rockport-lake huron tonight and it was checked by dnr

fish checker.
