Zombie trout??

A while ago, I caught the darkest brown I've ever seen. It was pretty lethargic, even though the fight was short and I only took this one quick picture of it out of the water. Sort of just hung around after the release, was even able to get an underwater shot of it. Not sure what was wrong with it

I didn’t have much luck taking pictures last night but here’s one you can see whitish spots on it

1)Blind in one or both eyes, 2)possible cataracts in one or both ( note the eye of that fish) or 3) and most likely…caught from dark beneath overhead cover (or originated from that covert to take fly, bait, or lure.
 
So today after work I took a walk around the top lake at Deer Lakes Park in Russellton Pa and seen dozens of what I thought were trout not 100% sure launching themselves out of the water some reaching 2 ft in the air wished I could show you the videos but here’s a picture of one I didn’t think they were taking bugs off the surface at least I couldn’t see any bugs at all but it was a sight for sure dozens of them jumping all around for at least a half hr
