It's a slow day at work. Boards are slow too.
Let's have an identification test.
In the picture below identify the fish from left to right (1-6).
**update** --[#bf0000] just for fun, include what criteria you are looking at to make your identification[/#bf0000].
Winner get's a big sloppy kiss from yours truly.

Monitor isn't the best at work, but it looks to me like;
Splake, splake, brookie, splake, splake, splake.
Criteria; Blue halo around the red dots.

Those are some mighty colorful fish. I wish we had a better picture, but it looks like most of those fish don't have squaretails. A forked tail with blue halos is throwing me, so I'll guess just by the tails.
Brook for the first, followed by a bunch of fork tailed hybrids that have some amazing coloration.

Brook, splake, brook, splake, splake, splake. Halos on the third fish make me doubt that it's a hybrid. Not as sure about the first one as I would like to be.
Keep the kiss.[crazy]

Brook, splake, brook, brook, splake, splake.
The troat and lower jaw of the one's I am saying splake look more like the head on a Mac so I am guessing they are hybrids. Also the halos around the spots on the 3rd fish make me think that one is a brookie for sure.
Fun game, but do you know the real answer? [ ]

I'm bettin' PBH would know. He'd be likely to know which hatchery planted the splake, and when they did.

Yes. I know the answer. So does someone else that's already posted in this thread. One person has 100%.
But, let's give a few others an opportunity to provide an answer.

I guessing based on the halos on fish 1 and 3. I don't know how else you tell a brook from a splake.
