Dead fish

[skeeter21]

I went out this afternoon hoping to catch a few Crappie with my son-in-law. Fished all my normal spots in the upper East Fork then all the way to the back of Luci's. The water is like chocolate milk and there's dead crappie, white bass and black bass everywhere. Something wrong with the water. Left a dark brown scum line all the way around the boat and thick soapy bubble trail behind the boat when ideling. Been fishing this area 20 years and never saw it like this.

tHANKS SKEETER Not sure who the culprit maybe.....

We fished Luce's Monday water was chocolate then also did not see any dead fish, last week water did leave a scum line on the boat Monday not as bad, tough fishing Monday.

Tough yesterday too. The dead we saw were way up the East Fork but there was a stretch of them. Talked to some guys north of Conestoga and they commented on the dead fish and tough bite.

I spoke with the lake Patrol this morning and they knew nothing about it said they'd go check it out.

One of the reasons I haven't fished Houston as much, there's something going on there and it ain't right....
Thanks for the reports.....

Sand mines dumping **** in the water.

Bad thing is you can never get COH to do anything; the sand mines have been silting lake Houston
up for many years and there is nothing ever done. heck you cant even get a dog catcher out 'til the stray dog bites you. COH management sucks

Dang

LOL no it aint LOL!!

Thats terrible. Definitely sounds like something from mining run off. I've seen other fishing spots meet the same fate from mining

Seems like every time you try to talk to city officials they ignore you, you go to the office here on the lake and they got it locked up like Fort Knox/........

Hii there would be many reasons for dead crappie. When fish become stressed from other factors such as low oxygen conditions or other primary infections, the fish can no longer fight off the bacteria present in the water and may become weakened and die. The last time I bought some TMC pumps UAE (https://www.mazuzee.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=90_250) through which we can take some benefit while fishing.
