I have never seen that. Maybe something to do with the mud?

I had to read this title twice...I was scared to open it. I thought it was about Hops prom date.

I've seen a couple, all in East Texas. But I have seen a pic of a big one, ~7lbs from Falcon before.

Thanks for the replies. Fish is definitely unique compared to the other ones in the lake. We spotted the fish swimming about 20 feet away and at first look I thought it was a catfish just because of the color. Once it was a confirmed bass on a bed the flipping started. She is darker then the black and blue jig I was using lol
