J Franco,

I know you can differentiate the male and female of the salmonoids by the jaw. Extends past the eye it's a male if it doesn't it's a female. Would you or anyone else know if that applies to other fish species?

  • Super User

Some yes, others no. Some, there's no physical difference.

I don't use it for our trout. I go be mouth shape, body shape, as well as mouth to tell, outside of the spawning runs. During the spawn, the kype jaw is a tell tale sign it's a male.

It looked kinda large for a blackfin and they generally are more silver, world record is 45#.......maybe a bluefin, at any rate it's one fine fish.
