If you were where I think you might be, it could be an atlantic salmon. I've got them there before and have seen some monsters over 40". I've got them on 7" redfins as bycatch and have taken them on 1" flys sight fishing to them. They hold in certain areas along current breaks. CT and Merrimack and some others have them along with other tribs, some are wild fish. You'll randomly see them jump clear out of the water at times when they are staging. They are around all summer and hold in the same pools and brook mouths year after year. You can get them on waked flys when the water warms up a bit. Mike give me a call if you want more details - done a TON of research on these and put a lot of effort into figuring them out. They are protected, so release them all unless you're in a designated brookstock area where you can take them.
