WHILE breaking the law - you show pictures of fish that were "released" laying on rocks and gravel - and who knows what other nice, gentle, ETHICAL treatment they received.
You are AMAZED and CONFUSED when upon returning the next day, there are dead/dying fish everywhere.
You have the audacity to call the state and report a fish kill?????
You wonder about some "p.o.s." poisening the water - or a mystery bacteria??
I would be very curious as to how detailed your "report" to NJ Fish and Game was.
There are so many things wrong with this - but one that keeps coming to mind is that this is the type of thing that makes ETHICAL, LAW-ABIDING hunters and fisherman like myself and most other sportsman look bad and have to deal with a lot of needless non-sense from anti's.
It is already bad enough without things like this.
Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong.

look idiot, i had no clue there was a no trespassing sign at this place since it was my first time there, but at 6:30 am with no one around why go back home instead of giving it a shot? didn't think there would be fish anyway. either way, its none of your buisness what i do, and i ALWAYS follow every fish and game reg there is.
just because i trespassed for the first time in my life, who the hell are you to assume i don't abide laws and is unethical towards animals when you never met me and never will? and i'm not proud of it, just stating that i did. i put the fish on the rocks because he had a mouth full of treble hooks and as you see in the other pic, i lip them almost all the time. it wasnt flopping around or bleeding, losing scales, anything. swam away fine. why dont you talk S**t about those who DO keep fish illegaly and leave trash behind? because i sure as hell respect wildlife more than other people i've seen leaving trash behind or keeping everything they catch.
when i went to the lake with the dying fish, it was a different water body, and how the hell would an entire population kill be my fault? to sum things up, if i didn't care about wildlife i wouldn't have contacted NJ FG&W in the first place.
oh and btw, i got an email reply by them. they are forwarding my message to the Lebanon Fisheries Office and their toxologist team. i doubt they would care about how i placed 1 fish on rocks when an entire lake is getting wiped out. so yeah, i corrected where you are wrong. happy?
