Bobby, you might have rudds, they are very similar to GSH and will even hybridize with GSH.

Funny I actually did some reading up on rudds recently, they do get larger than GSH. I doubt I have them or hybrids. I got all my GSH from wild Florida stock. Rudds are not known to have populations in florida. They are not that red either just not bright yellow fins like that. Often no color too.
this is one, now that I look closer I actually see a hint of yellow in the anal fin...

Now that you have posted a picture, that looks like a GSH to me. smile

Fin tinting can also be influenced by diet. I occasionally catch sea run cutthroat trout out of Puget Sound, they have brightly colored yellow tinted fins as well which is thought to be influenced by what they eat in Puget Sound. It seems that both my GSH and RES have more heavily yellow tinted fins, so maybe it is just something they are eating in my pond?
