Bowfin Ick in the Ichetucknee

Descrission:

This giant has a terrible eye infection that has partially blinded it. I've encountered this behemoth in the same spot several times, and it seemed to be king of this small spring and surrounding pools in the main run. They don't call them the underdogs of the fish world for nothing and I'm sure it can survive with one eye, but the infection could kill it.BowfinIchetucknee Springs State ParkIchetucknee RiverSuwannee and Columbia Counties, Florida, USAOlympus OM-D E-M514-42mm II LensPT-EP08 Underwater Housing, PPO-EP01 Lens Port & 14-42mm Zoom Gear
