Strange carp

[FishinNSleepin]

Hey y'all, random question for you guys. Shot a carp for cut bait and cut it up at the cleaning station within a few minutes. I've done this to countless others and have never run into this problem. The fish was nearly completely fat. I'm used to Willard's carp having a tense red flesh, but this one's entire body was yellow and the consistency of steak marbling. To the point that the flesh wouldn't even hold a hook. The whole fillet shook like Jell-O.

Have any of you run into this? Is it due to the time of year?

I'll post a picture of what the flesh was like. I'm used to belly fat, but this was the back, ribs, tail, every inch.

Thanks for your input!
