First time ever River fishing and I landed this Cutthroat! (I think*)

I never fished a river before, only lakes/ponds. I rarely target trout, mainly other panfish. And I rarely use artificial lures, it's usually live bait/scented bait. Did everything I never done before this past weekend and it paid off! Such a blast and I think my friend gave me the itch to hit the rivers a LOT more often! More pics in comments.
