Thread: Fish Kill from winter storm

I have heard about fish kills from the snow. Everything from specs to snook. Any info on this ?

I’ve seen a bit online. Mostly mullet but some specks and even a snook

They appear to have mostly been in the shallow, dead end canals off Little Lagoon and similar locations (coastal creeks, etc.), and almost entirely silver (white) mullet.
But I've seen photos and videos of other species mixed in, even heard about two small tarpon. But VERY few gamefish (trout, reds, snook) fortunately.

Some of these fish I could positively ID...


One of the canals off Little Lagoon


Another canal in west Gulf Shores (behind Desoto's)

Where was this?

Mostly on instagram but a little bit around Lagoon Pass on Bama Beach Bum’s YouTube video posted today. He’s the one that spotted the dead snook by the pier on the Lagoon side.

Yeah, here is the link to Matthew's video footage that he took Friday Jan. 24th.
I have seen NO evidence of fish kills in the Gulf. None ZERO!
But definitely a single snook near the pier in the Lagoon, and white trout, mostly pigfish and pinfish, maybe a speck or three ...

Thanks to all . I hope everyone, like me, who live 300 miles away appreciate all you folks who keep us informed. THANKS AGAIN.
