True Westslope or Hybrid?

Every strain of westslope's here are "tainted", minus the system redbeard alluded to. This now, too late as always, has led the Species At Risk team to sound the alarm. This is, what I'm told, a large priority of the native trout recovery program.

 

The ram has both westslope and yellowstone strain cutts, neither pure. Have caught both and they are easily identifiable. Though not pure westslope, they are the stereotypical "cutty". Yellowstones almost look more like a pale/chrome brown trout with most all their spots on the back end.

Eggs are collected from Job to stock lots of mountain lakes like Rawson

Yup, and who knows how pure they are. If someone is real interested I'm sure you could grill one of the stocking biologists. I'm not sure where they got the original stock for Job, but I would bet that strain that's been there for how many decades is pretty intact.
