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.

I think it is a kokanee with an odd coloring. They have been stocking them in there the last 3 years now

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.

Here is another picture of the fish. The body proportions just don't match up. And it was quite a narrow fish.

Tiger trout generally have square trails so maybe it is a strange looking koke. Here is a strange shaped tiger.
