They are big, they are freshwater.
Not catfish no whiskers.
Maybe muskie, not spotty enough and there seem to be two chin fins...maybe a Brook Trout. Do you know where these people are supposed to be? That would help.

Brook Trout? You're kidding. One on the right could be Muskie or Northern Pike. The others look like salmon.

Now that I look at them - Max is right - the one on our right is different from the others. I'll bet the others are Lake Trout. Looks like they are in Northern US or Canada.

Ok - you twisted my arm! Here's a pic of the Northern I caught on a company fishing trip to Reindeer Lake in Saskatchewan (before hubby,before kids). I caught the trophy fish of the whole group of 50 men and 2 women and so I got it taxidermied for free. It gathers dust above the fireplace in our downstairs rec room (the mantel is full of my California Pottery Lady Planter collection) - we put a flower in his mouth to hide his teeth.

Nope, not kidding. Caught one myself, almost this big. The brown variety are thinner. But I think you are right, muskie, salmon. Makes me want to go fishing!

This is the only variety of Brook Trout that I've ever fished. Breaded and pan fried, the taste can't be beat.

That undoubtedly, Fluff, is a LEOPORD MUSKIE.
This is a TIGER MUSKIE (and one of my favorite pc's ever):

Max - those are Maryland Brook Trout? We call them "bait" here (or maybe "smelt" ! LOL Looks like a filet would be one bite!

The three on the left of for sure Muskies. The one on the right is tough to tell but likely a Musky as well. The lines on it almost make it look like a Northern though.
I would go with 4 Muskies in my description.
The one from Leech Lake is great. In my younger days, I spent many summers in that area and have seen many Muskies that size.

Thanks all, think I'll go with Muskies. Now if I can only figure out if they are truly "4 of a kind" - the fellow on the right looks a little girlie to me.

neglus, they're great eating. No scales, clean em and fry em. When they come out of the pan, the back bone and ribs fall off the meat. No floating bones. A couple of 10 inchers make a meal.

The two on the right are ladies. Look at the hips on the 3rd one and the face on the 4th.
JMHO. Also all the fish are one species, the gal on the right just has her fish turned at a different angle.

The third one's shirt looks like it buttons like a man's shirt and the pants and the boots look the same as the men's. Curious, not that it matters...
