rickmarlin62 Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 wow that's compelling viewing but upsetting at the same time...its hard to imagine just how many fish didn't survive this sad event...hopefully some decent size fish have survived in the system to maintain stocks..rick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of people are questioning whether (SCIENCE) can find better solutions to this problem. One thing is for sure we can't keep losing 20 -40 year old fish and expect the numbers of Cod to increase...that's a gimme. Cheers, BN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cargo05 Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 It is very distressing to see the tragic effects of black water on these iconic fish. Such a waste of life. All the great conservation work undone in a very short period of time. The trouble seems to occur as stagnant water from flooded land returns to the rivers. I am not sure what the solution is, as it would be almost impossible to introduce the black water into waterways more slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scratchie Posted December 3, 2016 Share Posted December 3, 2016 I've never fished for cod but you are correct in saying that those images are disturbing. It can only improve from there! Cheers scratchie!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
