Must be a hot water trout!

I can tell you the easiest way to know if it’s a trout. Trout don’t have scales.

There are also plenty of other species of fish that don’t have scales, (salmon, catfish, to name a few) but if someone shows you a fish with scales and call it a trout, they’re either wrong or lying.
