The agency said that the virus, which is highly pathogenic, was detected in bluegill and largemouth bass in Lake of the Pines in Nevada County. The discovery was made after roughly 220 fish died in September in the lake.
The virus does not impact warm-blooded animals, including human. It can be transmitted into waters through infected baitfish, contaminated equipment, or by introducing infected carrier species, according to CDFW.
While the illness only affects largemouth bass, it can be carried by other fish species and cause disease in them. Infected fish exhibit a variety of symptoms, including bulging eyes, erratic swimming patterns, darkened skin and skin sores.
CDFW said it is investigating if the virus is present anywhere else in the state.
