Possible infection

Hi Guys
I fished the pond last week when this Bream of around 4lbs came out.
According to Peter Turner of 'The Environment Agency' it is some form of secondary infection.
Could anyone fishing please have a good look at your catches to see if there is any signs of infection and let either myself or any other committee member know. Thank you

secondary infection is caused when the outer protection has been removed (the slime) this could have been done by loads of reasons, once removed parasites can attack the skin causing problems, as long as anglers keep an eye out things should be fine.
