I don't know. I presume you just got bored sitting in the house and fancied getting out on the water?

It was the same last weekend, probably more of them than this weekend. The pontoons are covered in bits of them as well, kicked 4 or 5 off as we put the boat back in yesterday.

Some one mentioned the airation device had been tured off while they work on the pumps,dont know though,could be a spill upstream,we noticed last saturday night the water had bright green bubbles near our boat.

The fish seem to have stopped going belly up now.I heard someone say it was "breeding stress " that killed them.

Not a bad way to go I suppose.
