Cutties have pink stripes too and if it's a sea run that's been in fresh water for a little while it would most definitely have a stripe. Sometimes it's just as bright as a rainbows. That is most likely a sea run cutthroat not a cutbow. Cutbow's are actually fairly rare in most areas.

I thought it might be a lost sea-run Argentine brown trout.... but was afraid of getting torched for guessing...:shock:It is a sea run cutthroat in spawning colors, I love the armchair Bio's with all their "knowledge"....If I didn't know what I had caught, don't ya think I would have posed a QUESTION?

What a fish! Thats a fish of a lifetime!!!
I love how everyone chimes in about what you caught! How bout we get pics of all the other 23" cutthroat that people on here have caught and compare? LOL
It does seem like the bigger a cutthroat gets, the more its colors differ from that of a typical cutthroat. I use to swear I was catching cuttbows all the time, till I asked a biologist about one day. He said it is extremely rare here in oregon...
