Fish ID can be a little nutty at times out there but once you retain/know what to look for its easy-cheesy.
Main difference is in the markings and tails - "wormy splotches" on the Lake Trout vs. "spots" on the Browns. The Lakers Tail is the main give-away if the fish are marked lighter.. look for a forked tail like a "V" the Browns tail has a flat/straight rear edge or "squared" off...

Oh, and in the event of a fish comming to net and you notice it reads "Penzoil" on the side .. it a Laker [
