Onsite Comments

All dead fish were along south shore. Ice had just gone out within last few days, with high winds. It appears that the fish had been dead for a long time, and had just floated up as the ice went out.

Fish kill reported March 1999, and was most likely due to low DO during winter months. Ammonia levels were good.
