Brown or Rainbow Trout?

This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Looks like a brown... but I'm no expert- just basing that guess on the light coloured gums. Chinook's are black.

Sure looks like a rainbow to me , the only thing that doesn't look right to me is the tail . I thought rainbows had more of a square tail. Maybe some are more square than others??????????????

i count the anal rays its the most accurate way

The rainbow trout has 10-12 anal rays

and the brown trout has 9-10 anal rays

this is the easiest way to tell!
