    bleeding dorsal fin

    Caught some crappie today and all had bleeding dorsal fins. I've never seen this.

    It could be some sort of parasite on the fin. Or if pulling a fish in through branches and limbs would cause them to bleed.

    Hey Kenny, if you were on Green just go ahead and tell me where exactly you caught them and I'll go see if they're still doing it LOL...The brush thing was my first thought to, were you catching them out of brush piles?
