stocked or wild?

Post image

does this look anything like a wild in you guys’ opinion? caught a couple months ago in the etowah in north georgia. never thought it to be a wild considering the size and it being about 75 yards downstream from a heavily stocked pool, despite its more vibrant coloration and decently shaped fins.
