Nice fish Drew, I know they are small and all, but some of us stuck in the city would love to even fish one day in a place like that and catch half of those.. LOL...
You are blessed.. I wish!!
But of course, bigger would be nicer with all the possibilities you most likely have..
Anyway those are markings of a smolt / young trout. I would say they are losing their smolt markings there, at about 8-9 inches..

Yes. I've seen small lakers, splake, and brookies all with those markings...if it's the sort of dark, vertical bars or stripes you mean. They seem to have them when they are small.
