That first picture is a illness/parasite I would consider taking one with those boil looking marked fish in or at least sending the picture to the bioligists!

I dont think the fish in my pic is from that, it's a small lake you dont need a motor, I caught 3 of them with the same kinda scars, those are from some sort of predator. funny thing is all had it in almost the exact same place! I think it was otter, I hate those things!

Otter skins can make a nice rod and real cover! Or even some nice flys for trout fishing. Or more fish in the lakes and ponds if there not in them. Most otters I've seen always die from lead poisoning? And don't forget about big cats they will also go after bass on bed!
