Great shot.... is it a bass or a mullet?

#1 Post by slowarm »

I occasionally look at this website/blogsite as the guy has some fantastics shots. See this one.

Look through the archives and on the older site.

Looks like a sea trout, the tail is square from what I can see on the picture, a salmon would have a concave shaped tail.
