Caught this fishing at Electric today. Not sure what kind of fish it is or if it might possibly be a hybrid.

Snow and ice conditions were great. Fishing was slow. Didn't see tons of fish on the finder either. Did better in shallow water.

looks to me like a chub hybrid.

Or a misshapen salmonid.

Although it is strangely misshaped, I think it is a tiger trout.

Kokanee.

I think it is a kokanee with an odd coloring. They have been stocking them in there the last 3 years now
[signature]
Yeah That's a kokanee. was up there this year trying to get some. Looks like they are starting to get to a decent size. Thanks for sharing!

Looks like a Koke and tiger to me [laugh]

Absolutely no doubt about it sir, you have yourself a fish there!
[signature]
That's a kokanee salmon. Just a messed up one
[signature]
Wow, what a strange looking Koke.
[signature]
Interesting koke you got there. Might I ask what you caught it on?
[signature]
White tube with black flecks, tipped with a wax worm, dead sticking.

Chupacabra

Do you have another picture of the tail? Kokes have a pretty distinctive "V" shape to the tail, and that particular fish looks to have a flat or squared end to the tail.

Best answer!!
[signature]
Dunno whut them uther folks is thinkin. They all rong! Hit's jist a butt ugly fish.
[signature]
I think it is a Tiger Trout that ran into a wall and then said...........DAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[signature]
Here is another picture of the fish. The body proportions just don't match up. And it was quite a narrow fish.
[signature]
Tiger trout generally have square trails so maybe it is a strange looking koke. Here is a strange shaped tiger.
