Ooh shoot, I do need to go fill my cup....


It was probably either a partially albino or a diseased brown trout. Those pop up at Bennet Springs from the RT hatchery once in a while too.

 

Might be a Gar. It is native to the White River and has a dark head.

it was most definitely not a gar......it had the "nose" of a trout......I keep saying trout because it looked jsut like a trout....just not any species I have ever seen before.....now they do stock the White River....and it is possible that it is a mutated rainbow......

 

Just a guess, hard to tell other than light and dark from the pic. Of all the fish they list for Arkansas, the Alligator Gar was the only one that seemed to have a dark head and light body. As you said, it may be some kind of weird hybrid of trout. I have seen the light colored Golden and Dolly Varden trout, but none that have the light body with a dark head.

 

Get off this forum and go catch that sum-bish.

 

It colored up like Alligator gar. The picture sucks. That what I think it is. Anyone ever put a stick in an alligator gar's mouth? It will give you about a few seconds of entertainment before the stick comes out.
