A few things come to mind. One thing is the trees in the background have not had any leaves on them in a long time. Definite signs of winter. The Trask has a hatchery return of clipped winter chinook, but that is not one of them. The tail is being squeezed by the young man holding it or it would lay out flat and square like any steelhead. The head is a perfect sample of a female steelhead. If it were a late coho, the nose would be hooked even if it was a hen. It is a perfect broodstock Wilson fish that is lost and has gone up the Trask.
