Subspecies of rainbow? Tahoe side of Sierra Nevadas.
Assuming it’s a rainbow but never seen a rainbow quite like that. Several have said it’s a red-band but I don’t think we’ve got those up here. The last picture is of a rainbow from down the river waters a ways.

Here you go friend, The Truckee was originally stocked with [Red Bands](https://wildlife.ca.gov/Fishing/Inland/McCloud-River-Redband-Trout). Pictures 1 and 2
Picture 3 should be your classic [Costal Rainbow Trout](https://wildlife.ca.gov/Fishing/Inland/Coastal-Rainbow-Trout)
I also reserve the right to be wrong as i’m sometimes bad at this.
