That is a cool looking fish!!!
My personal best is still swimming out there just getting bigger. One of these days I will quit feeding it.

Can anyone tell me what causes that? I'm assuming something similar to albinoism... if that's a word?

Pigment mutation, is what the gamewarden called it, and somewhat rare, most don't make it to being adults. Chris Watson and I caught this one on Richland Chambers several years ago and it live for a long time in an aquarium at Oak Cove. Chris told me it died earlier this year. I've seen about 5.

I knew a lady that had some of them in her stock pond right there down the street from Yates Corner several years ago. Those fish would now be long dead however.
From Genesis: "And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."
Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!
