It's a Brown!

I think its brown, just my gut.

salmon

This is the same lake that monster Musky F&S highlighted last year (http://www.fieldandstream.com/photos/gallery/fishing/2009/09/new-michiga...). There must be something in the water!

The square tail would make me guess brown. But either way, nice fish. Torch lake is quickly making a name for itself beyond those of us who fish on it often. 50lb Muskies, 30lb trout/salmon, 6lb smallmouth. Yeah, I'd say its a decent fishing lake.

Great Lakes Brown Trout. Big clear water makes them more silver in color.

I live in SW Washington. Anything that big out here is a Salmon.

But the proportions ain't right.

Mouth too small.

Looks like a trout.

But it looks like a beautiful place with a cool climate.

Nice fish, too.

Very nice fish. What I don't understand is. If you have a potential record, why in the world would you fillet it?

This is one brute of a fish i beliuve it is a brown trout

I like the shout out to MSU in here!

I had to comment about the MSU part also, GO GREEN :)
I couldn't be more proud to be part of this wonderful Fisheries and Wildlife program here at MSU

What color was the meat? Salmon is red to light pink, trout is white. I agree with blackdawgz about the mouth. I have never seen a salmon with a mouth that small, even a hens mouth comes to the front of the eye ball.

Sounds more like it's a "dinner" trout now.

Lots of people here seem like they're comparing it to Pacific salmon (not everyone though.) Gotta remember, Atlantic salmon, especially landlocked or Sebago salmon, have shorter mouths and heads than other salmon. I do think it's a brown, but as the article said, there's too many overlapping characteristics to make a determination without the DNA tests. Think it's a brown, hope its a salmon!

It could very well be a hybrid too.

It's a brown. If it were a salmon it would have a small fork in the tail and would have black in it's mouth. I have caught a number of browns from Lake Ontario and Lake Erie in deep water that look similar to this one in color.

My grandpa and I fished Torch for years an never saw anything like that - Congrats! Glad Torch is getting known for fishing again, maybe it will deter some of the jet-ski idiots just a little. Go Green, Go White!

check the teeth! the brown trout's teeth are aranged differently than a salmon's. good luck!

the easiest way to tell would be to look at the tail, if it was more forked, it would be a landlocked. If it was square (like it is) then its a brown.

We ate some of this fish last Tuesday night 3-30-2010 and the meat was nice and pink we all thought it was salmon before ken told us about the DNA test which hasn't came back yet.

Yeah and pretty expensive. I have run the protein analysis before and that is pretty quick but I doubt it is conclusive between such similar fish.

As a follow up: DNA testing provided by Michigan State University’s Dr. Kim Scribner on the 29-pound 11-ounce fish, genus Salmo, reeled in from Antrim County’s Torch Lake this past spring has confirmed the fish a behemoth brown trout (Salmo trutta) and not a world-record landlocked Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) as hoped by the angler.

Darn big brown trout, though, don't ya think?
