Not sure what is up with this one. When I landed it there was a piece of dead skin/bone on the side of its head. This fell off in the boat to leave the hole you see in the picture. You can see its gills. The weird part is that the hole seemed to be square. Other then that the fish looked fine.
I do not catch many of these and thought it was kind of interesting maybe someone has a idea on what caused it?? 
I think we can blame BK, probably fried it up for supper too! Carp Cheeks, its a delicacy…

Lamprey?

Sounds like a very good possibility, but I would’ve though the lampery would go for a softer spot

Are there Lamprey in pool 2?

I haven’t see one, but I’ve seen my fair share on the St. Croix, so I’d imagine they are in P2, as well.
The lamprey scars I have seen are rounder than that. Pretty much a perfect circle.
I’d take an educated guess and say that lampreys require water about as clean as stugeon, that is why we might not see many this far upstream.
Either that is a new wound or it really isn’t hurting the fish too much. Looks nice and healthy otherwise..
