GBS,
That's a real nice brown. Sometimes as you know they have a bluish cheek, maybe the blue dot just never got bigger"The way I see it, you're hooked.Trout have you. Another soul lost." Elias Wonder, The Earth is Enough by Harry MiddletonComment

Must be its a cross between a Blue Wing Olive and a brown trout....
I agree w/ my brother, alot of the older holdover browns who`ve been in the river awhile, adopt that really neat looking coloration on the gill cover .It is a shade of light bluish silver and it can have a little tint of green in it.Almost like some of the beautiful colors a Landlock has after it has just been lifted from the water.And......maybe like bro said this particular brownies neat colors did`nt spread out but stayed in a dot shape.Very interesting and BTW...excellent pictures of that dandy...GBS..!!!!!!

Serotonin,
Yes, you re right again sero,
Upon further review.....I threw the red flag alittle too early,and should`ve looked closer first......Ithen noticed its fins are way too perfect and the adipose is in splendid shape .All around that is one perfect trout.Must be a wild one!!!!
I do hereby state ,....I stand corrected.....
WB
p.s...does the bluish colored gill cover make a trout a wild trout???"Get your mind off trout,if you can.I know they`ve got you.I can see it.

No worries WB. (I had some inside info).
Sacco's right; it's from the West Branch of the Delaware.
From the original post, anyone could have easily thought that GBS was refering to the WB of the Ausable. (All of the trout in the WBDelaware are wild fish. The brownies are descendants of two distinct original strains; a German brown and a Scottish brown).
This fish is also from the WBD: See #32. Check it out.

Thanks Sero, didn't even think of the WB Ausable. Yes this fish was from the WB of the DELAWARE. Sorry for the confusion.
