Is that a special type trout, or just a big rainbow?

Just Rainbow..There are lots of different age classes in the lake.  The one I am holding aren't the average.  I would say the average are about 18".  Great eating!.

Well when they are in that spawning mode they prowl just off shore so fishing from the bank can be very good.
