A handsome brook trout in the out flow of Lake Marie WY. Usually very hard to sneak up on but this time of year they only have one thing on their mind.

Nice shot considering the subject was under water. Good detail in the fish, but I think there is a blue cast to the photo. Thanks for sharing.

Nice detail and sharpness on the fish, love those pink spots. A lower angle to separate the fish from its shadow would have been nice but I imagine this was probably difficult or impossible. You were fortunate to not have to contend with any reflections, but the white object at the bottom of the frame is a bit of a distraction.

This is a very difficult subject to photograph and I agree with Gary's observations, so won't repeat. A sense of scale would have been nice, but the background here offers no clues to the size of this brookie.

Interesting image John and a beautiful fish. A lower angle would have helped. I would definitely remove that white object in the bottom of the frame. Thanks for posting.
