Looks like a resident rainbow parr. For future reference, always handle trout with wet hands and preferably keep them in the water if you’re not retaining them.

I’m fairly confident that that’s a rainbow trout.

Rainbow. And dead. So no big rainbows for a worthy picture for you.

It’s rainbow. You can see their long, torpedo shaped bodies, two separate dorsal fins, and shiny scales that flash rainbow colors under light.

What’s your location? It’s not a steelhead until it returns as an adult from the ocean, otherwise it’s just a juvenile or resident rainbow trout.
