Check out this rainbow

This guy was about 11 inches caught on a stream that is not stocked, but is a tributary to a stocked stream. What stood out to me were the parr marks the length of the fish, the green flanks and the red lateral line. I think this fish may have been stocked as a fingerling. Thoughts?

Olive bugger BTW.

If I caught that fish I might have said it was wild....could very well be. How were its fins.

The fins look a little rough from what I see.

11"????

Your hands are HUGE!

BTW, that fish looks healthy but is a bit weird shaped. Looks like a held-over dink.

I love the way you can zoom in on this picture and really give him the once over. Cant do that at my other site.
Bobm, I've caught quite a few wild rainbows at Big Springs and Falling Springs and Trindle Springs Run. I have to admit that looks just like'em even though you dont seem to be in the right neck of the woods.
