It's hard to tell. The Golden's I catch are so much bigger. LOL

My vote is rainbow/golden hybrid for the first based on the large circles down the lateral and white tips on the fins. The second a planter rainbow.
It's a rainbow/Brown/Golden hybrid based on a mixup with the airborne stocking two years ago. They've been like that ever since.
I vote that both are rainbows, the first might have a bit of golden-trout-in-the-woodpile genetics from somewhere. Upper Pine Lake contains goldens, so anything is possible.
both are rainbows, the first just hasn't lost it's par marks yet. ive caught countless bows like that under 8 inches. that doesn't make it a golden.
thanks man.
