salmon trout??? ... what the **** is that? I know what trout are - fresh and salt water.. and i know what salmon are, also the aussie version.

 

Never heard of a salmon trout. Are there any in your pics, they look like what you call an aussie salmon. apart from the flathead.

 

Good haul,  some taste fish there. Should try smoking some of those fish. mmmmmm mmmmm mmm

Small Australian salmon have have always been known as salmon trout at least untill they get to around 1-1.5kg

Pillies??? this is a WA site and here where most of them are caught they are known as mulies ---not the mullies or pillies they call them over there.
