Today I caught a 40.5 inch muskie that was suspended and pretty much inhaled my depthraider.It had black spots all over it and very red colored fins and fuzz on the finns.The fish was really skinny prolly only 10pounds.What would cause this to the fish???

The fish was probably very old, and ready to cash it in. What did the black spots look like? Were they small, and all over the fish, or big nasty areas?

It had small black spots covering everything.Kinda like a perch you would catch with spots on it.Would this be a disease?

I told my partner that it prolly wouldnt survive the winter,but i did use cpr on it.Could this transfer to other fish in the water making them sick if its not old age and how can bacteria transfer from fish to fish?
