I went with a buddy tonight to a local private lake. Fishing was off.
When we walked the dam, and checked the water at the spillway, there were several hundred dead bluegills and some bass below the lake.
I'm wondering if the hot weather caused fish kills at some smaller lakes.
SAD, but expected with the heat.
What do you think.
Later,
Geo

Had a brain fart & broght back my memory.I had a 24ft round above ground pool that i put some fish in the last yr i used it.Had 2cats,a few bass & blue gills that lived till i drained it in July & cleaned & filled too use the rest of that yr.The only fish that died was crappie the last few days of June when the water was getting hot.Don't remeber how hot.All the live fish were taking too a pond.
George we are going be hearing more and more of this if we don't get substantial rain and SOON. This drought is getting very very bad. Then add that insane heat we had and it is a recipe for disaster. I bet ponds are really suffering...
You do not dam a river to create a pond you just dam a ravine and trap the run off, after the pond is full you still have the runoff. Ponds are a haven for wildlife and a water source for livestock why would you want to get rid of ponds. Even lakes that do dam up rivers are a great resource and do not affect the rivers except maybe where there are salmon. Keep the dam things.
