Fish Kill II

Re post below, UCO is investigating the fish kill. Good ideas Samson. I have never caught one like these, are they carp?  Mostly 2”, largest I saw was 8”. Ibis and wood storks pick them up to show off but do not eat them.  Passersby notice water is really stinky, stained brown and slimy. I hope Fish & Wildlife will have an answer soon.

    No Elaine. These fish are called shad and are a food source for preditory fish such as bass as well as birds such as commorants and herons.
