It has orange spots with a pale halo and a dark spot with a halo, the adipose fin is orange and it doesn't have the typical brook trout markings on the caudal fin.
Would be nice to zoom in more to be sure, and I can't see if there is white on the pectoral and anal fins so I'm not 100%

Pretty color on this fish but it is not a brown trout, it is a brook trout without question.

no white leading edges on
no white leading edges on pecs -- hence, Brown
P.E.T.A. sucks!!! Plants are living things, too -- they're just easier to catch!

Yeah
This one of the coolest-looking brown trout I've seen. Looks almost like an Ohrid Trout.

They catch them in the Tule River
Near Camp Nelson: http://www.ecoangler.com/habitat/Tule_River.html (here's some blogger that also caught one like it.)
