[QUOTE=cow tamer;813915]White pus mucous slime and creeping crud are also good descriptors of what I was seeing.

I get a lot of these in late winter and early spring. I my self like Raven believe its a temperature change as well as bacteria. I think the fish that get this are the ones that make there way into the back rivers and freshwater and stay for a while. Like salmon and trout when returning to rivers will also become the same way as they stay longer. Almost all the bass I get out of the Charles, Scortons,and mystic over Dec - Jan seem to have the red skin. Earlier this fall a got a staff infection under my chin which was thought to have come from a striper. So be careful out there
