ID the fish at 4:00

Many in the comments think its Coho, but I think its steelhead by looking at its mouth

the tongue on a coho will have some black pigmentation. I couldn't see the tongue. Didn't look like a steelhead to me.

Coho have white gums and black tongue.
I did see black tongue at one point in the video when the fish was held at the right angle.
An interesting looking Coho.
