    Themocline /oxygen levels

    I've been looking at the oxygen level @ taylorsville and trying to understand it.The T ville link for flow and temp shows oxygen as 5 mmpl below 9 feet.Does this mean there are no fish below 9 feet?Can you know the thermocline by looking at the oxygen chart?

    Re: Themocline /oxygen levels

    Creekrock, please post the link that you are using.

    According to the corps of Engineer site, the oxygen at T-ville is 4. and above at 20 feet up to the surface. it is 3.7 at 25 feet and 0.3 or less at 30 fett and below. I like using the oxygen level at the CoE site to determine the thermolcline because it is easier to see and understand, e.g when the oxygen drops drastically below 4 I take that point as the thermolcline. If I remember correctly, fish/bass need somewhere around 3.5 or 4.0 oxygen and above to live and they will stay above any area that has less than 3.5 ozyben, ergo the thermolcline. Sometimes the temperature drops in the thermolcline are hard to see.
