Blue mouthed jacks

[Guest Hauki]

I don´t know if this is the correct place to ask about this matter, my excuses if I am messing up the forum.

 

The fact is that in the Spanish waters is something usual, maybe not usual but not rare at all, to fish northern pikes with this blue mouth coloration.

 

 

Is this also going on in the waters you fish? I have ask also in some other European forums and it seems to be pretty located in the Iberian Peninsula.

 

Thanks in advance for your answer.

somewhat common over here....blue perch, walleye and pike...read an article on what causes the colouration but just can't recall off the top of my head right now...

Sometimes walleye from Bay of Quinte have vivid blue in their mouths or tails.

Its a salmo I think. Looks like a mount too, no line attached.

The information that I have about that matter is that the blue coloration in mouth, and fins is caused by liver and biliar problems. That blue coloration is fish is something very similar to the human jaundice. If you can find any information about that matter I will really appreciate. It would be nice to contrast my information.

 

I don´t know which lure was using my friend, but I am almost sure that it´s not Salmo.
