You're right. That tail is definitely not a laker.Comment

That has to be a laker.. never ,ever seen a splake
get that huge. See all the slime , lakers have a ton of it. But, I maybe wrong, Im no expert, just my thoughts. Anybody else care to chime in?"Get your mind off trout,if you can.I know they`ve got you.I can see it. Every fraternity of sufferers knows its brothers.Trout hook men;men don`t hook trout.Better try and throw the hook while you can.By the time you`re a grown man there probably won`t be a pure trout healthy enough to fiddle with"...

The current NYS record splake is 13 lbs. 8 oz and 31 inches long. Caught in 2004. They can grow big. I think the square tail helps rule out the laker. Beautiful fish.Comment

That is amazing! What a monster of a fish!--------------------------------------------------------------
And lungs are poisoned and shoulders bowed,
In the smothering reek of mill and mine;
And death stalks in on the struggling crowd?
But he shuns the shadow of the oak and pine?
