[QUOTE=BeeGuy;1565265]Bull Trout and Dolly Varden are 2 different species. They can not always be told apart by colour or any other character. Differentiating the 2 often requires molecular (DNA) or morphometric analysis.
This is part of why they are grouped together under the BC reg's.
Familiarity with your watershed is a good way to start knowing which you are catching.
People often use the 2 names interchangeably.
A 20lb bull in AB? Pics? Registered for the provincial record?
Which river are you fishing Slivers?
Alberta 20lb bull. No I am not posting a picture of it as it will give locations out. I know of 2 bigger than mine in this province and a few I have seen and herd of in the water that are easy over 20. Also watched a 25lbs bull radio shocked. Also one came out of the irragation canal that was 25lbs
