Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

I've taken a screenshot of my game, and highlighted the problem fish. It's not a big deal; something I noticed on my recent playthrough!

  • @ItsMeBNorr I tried to reproduce this in my game and couldn't.  From your screen shot, it looks like some corruption to me.  If you haven't already, please try the following steps: 1) remove all mods/CC, 2) clear your cache, 3) repair the game via Origin, 4) start a new save, and 5) test the issue in the new save.

  • I did all the steps and tested the issue in a new save once but had the same issue reappearing. I tried again, making sure that I had done everything correctly and they came out just fine when I made another new save. Seems like everything is resolved; thanks for your help!

    Sorry for the inconvenience.
