Can anyone identify this trout? It had cuthroat slashes under the chin, but weird spots and the obvious bright orange is something I'm not familiar with. Hybrid?

Not a hybrid just a different type of cutthroat, a Lahontan i believe. There are many different types of cutts, do some research and im sure you will find the correct one, Lahontan is my guess?

Not to go against the guys above, but my two cents- its a west slope cutthroat in spawning colors. The cuts should be gearing up for the spring spawn and the males get the red coloration with a hooked lower jaw like that. Caught lots of them like that in mountain lakes in early spring
