Default Carnegie Lake fish kill pics

Saw a lot of gizzard shad at the Carnegie Lake Aqueduct recently. Yesterday evening they started dying. > 100 were floating on the surface of the lake. Nobody else was fishing. I took pics and reported the kill to NJDEP. A few fish had a red spot on their head. It was probably the annual spring virus die off.

Damn. I was on the eastern shore today, but south of the aqueduct. Didn't see anything down there.

Are you sure they're not just sleeping?

Gizzard are very sensitive to dramatic drops in temp. Could be a result of the recent temp drop perhaps?
