What type of fish is this?


Recommended Posts

When I initially caught this fish I thought it was a Brown but now I'm really not sure( first 2 photos). This fish jumped way out of the water 4 or 5 times once I had it next to my kayak. Other Browns I've caught in recent years on Cayuga didn't jump. Sorry I don't have better photos. I wanted to get it back in the water as soon as possible.

Thanks.

P. S. I also caught what I think was my first ever decent Rainbow(I think?). Yesterday was a very active day on the water. I think the overcast skies, the nice chop on the water and an approaching rainstorm helped. 20200514_114230.jpeg20200514_114338.jpeg20200514_124905.jpeg20200514_165204.jpeg

Looks like a brown trout to me.  The 1st pic almost makes it look like a LL, but that tail is a brown trout tail.  I've had them jump several times, not super often, but sometimes.  And yes, the 3rd pic is a rainbow.  Nice day on the water!

Yep brown and rainbow and like Mike said they do jump sometimes although I have never seen the really large ones do so.
