i went fishing out on Cayuga lake NY today and there were dead small mouth,suckers,and a pike all over,i think if they were winter kills they would have been gone a long time ago,does any have any clue what could have killed the fish,the water seemed to be clan and healthy

maybe low oxygen levels.

i mainly only pay attention to whats happening in oneida lake but it could be the same thing that is happening in Skineateles lake

I never heard anything on Cayuga, and I just checked the DEC report and there is nothing.  But there was a fish kill on Skaneateles last week or so and it was attributed to Furunculosis bacterium and not VHS.  From my understanding, it is bacteria that can affect the fish when it stressed (example - spawning time).  I would give the DEC a ring and let them know and they will run out and test it.  Funny it is two finger lakes though.
