Black splotches on a bullhead?

Question

Is there something wrong with this bullhead we caught in a local pond.I've caught probably 30 others from this area over a couple days and none of the others had these black splotches.I've never seen this on any pond actually.Is it some kind of disease or something?

Answer 1

put it in a bucket and show it to the gamewarden

Answer 2

i not sure but i no a few hatchery's tag or mark the fish they stock. If this cat was stocked it could have been tagged. Usually the Hatcherys put the black spots on the bottom of the fish though. Someone could have caught t in a different lake and put it in your pond and marked it in case they caught it.
