I also thought it strange that the brown trout had the white line on the pectoral fins -- which is characteristic of brook trout. I looked around online a bit, and sure enough some browns do have a white line as well (although not as pronounced as on a brookie).

The fish IS a brown though. You can tell cause brookies and other char are dark colored with light spots, and browns are light colored with dark spots.
