Hello everyone. I'm new to the forum so I'm sorry if I'm stepping over any forum rules.

Today I was fishing out in the east end of GTA for trout, brook and rainbow. Caught a couple pretty little rainbows and brooks, nothing big but a fun time none the less. Of the three rainbows one looked a bit odd to me, and I'm thinking it's not a Rainbow but I can't figure out what it is, it's not a brook or a brown. And unlike the other rainbows this one had large sports along it side where as the others did not, but the colour otherwise was the same.

I took a pic of the fish below. Maybe it's because I haven't fished in a few year that I've forgotten what rainbows look like or that I never knew but I just found this fish odd as it didn't match the other two,.

Thank you guys. It threw my for a loop, the others didn't have the markings.

It could have been in a different stage as the others. Sure are pretty. Nice catch
