A mate caught this over the weekend flicking lures. They Have done a bit of research and can't track down exactly what it is.
Cutthroat trout in the states looks close but nothing on them being here.

Rainbow Trout - Oncorhynchus Mykiss
Rainbow Trout vary in colour according to their habitat. Stream dwellers are more intense in colour with large numbers of small black spots scattered above the lateral line and sides. Lake dwellers are more silvery and have fewer spots on a bluish green back and silver sides. There is a pinkish red band along the sides of the body and the tail is moderately forked but square in larger specimens.
Rainbow Trout grow to 9kgs and 35cms but are usually caught up to 2kgs.
The flesh is white or pink and is good eating.
Rainbow Trout are found from Perth Western Australia, round the southern coast and up to southern Queensland, including Tasmania.
