Wowser. Goldfish crossed with gill. Poor guy must be fighting with every ounce of his fiber to survive this long.

Great looking fish, surpised he made it long enough to be that size. I bet every bass around was gunning for him.

Talk about your random genetic mutation. Its a new species!

Thanks Craig. It'll be interesting to see if you can catch this fish again and see if the color changes any....This fish is going to have a tough time hiding from potential predators! Thanks for sharing the pictures...

Jeff--caught this yellow one in a creek where the water was murky..not muddy.  It's now in my pond which is very clear.

Cool Pigment! Is the water clear in your pond Craig? I assume you have caught regular looking gills from the same pond.....Neat looking Fish!
