went out for pike today at the oxbow, put out 8 out of ten tipups with real big bait and then put the other two out with tiny bait to try and catch some perch for pike bait, and just as luck would have it the only flag that goes up all day is one of the tiny shiner tip ups, but it wasnt a perch, but the pike I was looking for. 25.5" and really fat, looks like the perch were already in its belly. It was also covered with these little black spots on its skin and fins too, seemed healthy and didnt seem to have any apetite issues, I feel like I may have seen this before on other fish, anybody know what this stuff is?
bad picture I know, just wanted to show the close up of those skin spots.
