Parasitic bluefill gills?
Caught some snapper bluefish this fall in my local estuary and harvested them. Noticed each gill had atleast one of these parasites in it.
Then another day went fishing on a party boat. I noticed none of the bluefish on the boat in ocean water have these parasites.
Anyone know why? Is it because they are juvenile and eventualyl they get shed or are able to remove them? Or are they only noticeable in fish that live in brackish and not entirely clean water?
