Location: Yahara River Chain | None of you have told me why you think so. I see pointed fins on the fish, making me believe that its a true.
ps - reelman1 close, but not that lake.
pss - MuskyTaleMike the guy did say he was "excited" to catch it, but I believe the reason was he was using a Hughes River. |

Sure the fins may look a bit pointed in the picture, but that may be because they may not be completely faned out. I have several pictures of hybrids I caught that look as if they have pointed fins but it was because of the angle of picture and the way the fins were sitting. You also don't typically see trues with that type of markings, including the markings on the cheek. |

Location: Ogden, Ut | I'd say hybrid. Cuz Beav says so.
The fins look no more pointed than any of the 14 we got yesterday. The camera has a way of playing tricks on fins since it is only capable in capturing images in 2 dimensions, if they're off perpendicular to the lens by only a few degrees, they look pointy. The barring is extremely distinctive, and the cheeks hold their pattern well also.
Aside from that, I've seen and handled a few of these, these, hybrid thingys...if it's a pure one, it's an extremely rare pattern. And by the way - it's gorgeous!

Location: Hugo, MN | Hybrid because Sorno said so and that's all they gots out there in Utah besides Mormons . . . Beautiful fish though. The only absolute way to tell is to count pores on the Jaw.
