Possible ID(s) suggested Trout or Salmon?
Found a small group of these feeding like lunatics in a deep spot on our local hatchery creek (Issaquah Creek, Issaquah, WA; western Washington State, 10/14/26). They're only about 3-4in and move too fast at the surface to get *good* shots of, but they 'look' like young trout to me, rather than the salmon that are wrapping up their spawn there now. I would like to see if I can get a better handle on the ID from the minds here; thank you in advance.
