Fish ID

I can't tell what the fish in her left hand is. We caught this up in Spicer Reservoir this past weekend, First I thought it looks like a Steelhead or Brown but I'm not sure. Whats the verdict? Thanks

I would say brown.  brown rainbow

   

I would say rainbow

A rainbow can be that dark?

Both rainbows.

It's a rainbow.

Sounds good to me, I've just never caught one so dark in color. I searched Google for "Rainbow Trout dark" and was able to find a bunch like it. Thanks guys.

One fresh planter Rainbow and one holdover Rainbow

That darker fish is a rainbow that went through the throes of spawning this spring.  They'll turn all sorts of different colors and shades during the spawn.
