They're probably not trout. Trout fingerlings have vertical bars. A lone horizontal stripe is not a characteristic of a young trout.

Does it look anything like this??



Or this?

Does it look like this or similar? This is what I caught from the river as well. I'm not sure whether it is Trout or Salmon.





Sorry for the poor picture quality!
