It is shaped like a speckle trout but the drawing doesn't show and spots.
It lookslike it may have front teeth like a trout.

Mackerel.
Most likely Pacific Mackerel
The last time I answered a question like this, no one ever confirmed or denied it.

I believe you may be right. I thought of speckle trout but I forgot to look
at the fork tail instead of a fan tail. It does resemble a mackeral shape.

Also look at the bony ridges from the dorsal fin to the tail fin.
Definitely NOT a trout but in the Mackerel family.
Of course it could also be a Tuna, but it's highly unlikely.

It's definately a Mackerel. The same kind we fish here in New-Brunswick. If
the colors were bright his back would be green. Here's a link to a better
picture:

They are usually about 8-12 inches.

Hope this helps!

Could definately be a Pacific Mackerel also as it's identical to the
Atlantic Mackerel. The biggest difference between the two is the pacific
Mackerel has less fat.

I'd have to agree with the other respondants here and say this this fish
definately looks like it is part of the Mackerel family. Not a variety I
have ever seen before myself though. Good luck.
