boiling water on the river

[skeeter185]

i fished on the river today and didnt catch much about 6 or 7 8 inchers and a giant drum to me (13 or 14 lber) .... my question is on the way back to coxs in between 14 mile creek and 12 mile island on the indiana side was a spot of water about the size of a five gallon bucket right on the bank maybe five feet out that was boiling up.... it looked like when you turned the eyeball on your pool to shoot the water straight up to break the surface.....watched it for a few minutes have no idea what it is ???? anyone have any info on this ?????

ive seen it too !!! i just took it to be another factory or sumum dump stuff back into the river! ive seen it all up and down the river in some form!

I also have seen it and I was told that the boiling water you seen was a spring that runs from atop the big hill that is behind the spot that you mentioned. The pressure build up coming of that hill causes the water to look like it is boiling.

Not farmiliar with it, but around evansville where i live we have some factory intakes that are similiar to what you described only larger. The best way to know would be to take the water temp. around there. If its hotter it may a factory related. But if its colder its probably a spring.

thanks for the replies guys.... some guys at work said it could b a spring also.... just wasnt sure with the size and upward force....always see something new and weird on the river .....

These are geo-thermal subterranean piloted aquarian flows created from the phenomena called "Hot dry rock geothermal energy retention and hydrological evulsion", a condition created by the friction created from the lithospheric and asthenosphere layers compressing and contacting in any given area where shifts in the tectonic plates forming the continents contact and are forced under pressure into rubbing below the mantel and crust of the earths surface. This tends to create "shear strength free-zone heating", and extracts hyrological masses form near by deposits creating a relatively low viscosity flow compared to standardized liquid geological time scales. As the liquid heated produces pressure that results in the asthenospheris venting visible to some as either an escape of pressurized vapor or actual lithospheric liquid (water) which occassionally and randomly can occur under trafficable marine waterways. But all of this is of benefit as the process insures the stability of the mantle's asthenosphere layers.

But correct me if I'm wrong.........

Hey, maybe the river is just "passing gas"?

[Wormin]

LOL yea what he said ,what ever he said.

[Stevens]

Haaaa i dont know that he even knows what he said. thats deep

[WGPuckett]

It took him all week to get all those big words out of the dictionary. !!!!!
