I just grabbed this oof of our Instagram account. The angler said the fish was released fine. I've seen a lot of weird bass in my life and this one of them.

It has the shape of a keeper but the guy's hands obviously give away its size. Deformed spine ?

But there’s no dorsal fin. Bite or a gill net?

I’d say Bad retouching or a regeneration injury.
