12/12/2008 3:09:00 PMI have seen this before, and It could be, or at least I was told it was a long time ago, that there is a virus that causes some deformation of the skeleton just like that. That could explain catching two fish from Hog Canyon that had this.
I am aware of no Triploids planted in Hog Canyon, so I doubt that is it.
When you cleaned out the fish, did you fillet it? If so, was the skeleton normal, or funky?
