Caught my first brownie!!
Anyone know Why does he look so skinny with a big head? And what’s with the little red fin?
TIA!

I’m not 100% but I think when they get big heads like that it’s because they are over populated. Could be wrong but it makes sense. The fin is an adipose fin.

Yeah, this fish is starving. It might be related to that fishing injury that caused his maxillary to get stuck inside his mouth, but based on the clarity of that water is also might just be an overstocked/oligotrophic (nutrient poor) lake.
