Bacterial speck or something else?

Both of my NAR plants show the same symptoms. I'm thinking Speck, any other ideas? Interesting how the edges of the individual leaves are affected too.

Any spots on the fruit?
You've got a lot of marginal edge burn on the leaves, have you been spraying anything?

I believe you are correct. Bacterial speck.

Only one small fruit about the size of a dime so no spots yet. It's got to be Speck... just great. 👎🏻

I had it last year; Serenade (from Bayer) got me through the season until frost.
