Thanks for the advice

Yes, I’m not concerned about the skin light coloration, thepind gets plenty of light but the water is on the murky side so I’m sure the light doesn’t penetrate much, my concern was the sores on the skin since I’ve caught few with that symptom

Some of them were pale since I got them from the fish farm, but the pond gets a lot of sun ligh but the water is more on the murky side so actually there’s not mu light going thru the water therefore the fish have more of a pale skin tone, I’ve done research and is nothing to worry about, if the water was clearer they will get a darker color, I’ve caught few that are not as pale

They do, but the water is more on the muddy/cloudy side

All those are alive and kicking, most of fish in the pond are that color, just few have the dark green/olive color, that’s not a concern, Is just for the amount of light they get thru the water

Thanks guys for the info, it has been a really hot and dry summer so the water levels in my pond have been the lowest I’ve ever seen, the trees around the pond are still small so not much shaded areas around it, so water temperature were high, ive noticed 4 or 5 dead fish floating around in the past few weeks. We finally got rain and the water level is back to normal

I can’t get a close up without sacrificing the image quality, but I’ve noticed a crane and another bird coming during day and sometimes late evening, that one looked more like a pierced wound

Hi everybody, I’m new here and I would like to get some help identifying some skin wounds/condition on the large mouth bass in my pond. lately I’ve been noticing some bloody spots on some of the bass that I’ve been catching, like if they were wounds or if a hook went they thru it, most of the fish in my pond are juvenile with few bigger size fish and they share the pond with catfish and bluegill. Attached are pics of the condition I’m talking about, if anyone can help telling me what could be causing this and how can I prevent it, it will be appreciated
