Common parasites that affect freshwater bass include various species of protozoa, such as Ichthyophthirius multifiliis (commonly known as ich), which causes white spot disease. Additionally, bass can be infested by helminths like nematodes and trematodes, as well as external parasites such as anchor worms and fish lice. These parasites can lead to health issues in bass, affecting their growth and survival. Proper management and monitoring of water quality can help mitigate infestations.
