Same strain of brown that has always been in Deer Creek. I have been catching them since the 1960s. The only time you see any change of color is when they run up the Provo in the fall. Otherwise, they...like most browns that live full time in a lake...are mostly light colored with dark spots. No red ones as in some species.
Here are some pics from the past. The first is one I caught from my tube in late November one year...likely after it just returned from spawning in the Provo. The other two are of large fish caught from boats in the last few years. There are still some bigguns in that lake.
