Every year, my favorite fisheries biologist Bob Lusk gets asked about grubs in the fins and hide of bass. Seldom is this a cause of long-term concern, Bob says. Rather, the grubs are opportunists, taking advantage of a fish recovering from the stress of spawning.
If you're genuinely worried, or the situation persists, look up your nearest fish supplier, and buy some adult redear sunfish. They'll chow down on the larvae that so often latch on to bass and other species.
Just make sure you buy fish large enough to elude predators in the established fish populations.
