Not an odd color but had never caught a Humpback bass until yesterday.

Funny how this topic just appeared, I just caught a "blue" smallmouth last weekend. Never seen one like this before, seemed to not have any red or brown toned pigment at all. Wasn't a big guy but pretty cool to see anyway.

My brother lost one today that looked like that!

There have been some orange colored Largemouth caught on the Kissimmee Chain of lakes. 99% were caught in Lake Hatchineha.

I have seen pictures of european perch with an orange hue to them, like your bass. Seems it can be a rare mutation. I caught a yellow perch in Oneida that looked like it had been dipped in emerald green dipping dye and caught a pike years ago that was basically yellow with black spots, sort of like a negative of a normal pike markings.

I found a picture of the pike.

That is one beautiful bass.  If its a mutation then its pretty rare.  I hope it was released in good shape.  Was she caught close to a nuclear power plant?  She has a great looking glow!

To me, that looks more like a tiger musky. My basic rule is a pike has a dark body with light spots and a musky has a light body with dark spots. Either way, it is a unique fish.

Being caught out of the River Thames in London, England excludes any variation on a muskie hybrid. It was just a very peculiar coloured pike. I have caught muskie in Lake of the Woods, but never caught a tiger muskie, yet....

That is DEFINITELY not a tiger.  What a weird and beautiful pike.  I've often remarked that EU pike sometimes have very interesting patterns.

 

Also, nice dink pike, @Tim Kelly :lol:

So hard to resist such a tempting prompt for some showing off. Who am I to resist. LOL

 

More usual coloured pike, and the yellow perch that looked like it had been dipped in emerald dipping dye.
