Looks like a very fun day of fishing.( Can't tell by your somber expression :chuckle:)
Using fly or gear?
Looks like bull trout to me based on the head shape.
You guys would know being fisheries biologists

ah yes... my cheesy " I'm so frickin' stoked" smile... ha ha ha :chuckle: :chuckle: we were able to get a few hookups on flies but it was mainly gear.... water was high and fast that day..... so the fly fishing was tough....

is there really a difference besides a dolly is sea-run and a bull is not?
not trying to have a pissing match at all please understand...
I didn't even think it was legal to target bull trout in WA. apparently I'm wrong.
:dunno:

:dunno:
there is a slight difference between the two... their DNA is different and their head shape... that is about it.... they both can be sea run... all of the fish we caught here are sea runs.... and it is open to steelhead that time of year and we were doing C&R with barbless hooks... in a very, very select few places in this state I actually think you can target Bulls... this was one of the places.....
Nice fish jordano! :)
thanks! It was a ton of fun! Sounds like the sturgeon are going crazy right now! We need to get out there =)

They did an emergency closure on all local rivers here. They are worried about the hatchery wild steelhead. Think the true natives have long since vanished. I'll look again but the last I seen the stilly was closed for all fishing.
well s***............. :'(
