njhorseman Posted September 15, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Any news about the fish kill in Bermuda? Builder's Bay had more than 100 wash up on Glass beach @ Alexandrea Battery covering the beach this week. We found more at Whale Bay and Admiralty House park. I read royalgazette.com and bernews.com every day and haven'[t seen anything. I just did a search for the term "fish kill" on their websites as well as a Google search of "fish kill in Bermuda" and came up with no recent articles.

jollyjones Posted September 18, 2017 #4 Share Posted September 18, 2017 There's dead fish all along the waterlines - I can only guess that it's something to do with Hurricane Jose which is really stirring up the sea and has been for a lot longer than one would expect with a storm passing by on a 'normal' track. But it's strange - I don't remember seeing so many fish even when we've had a direct hit from a storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We found fish in heavy decay on the 11th that past long before any storms.:confused: Some fresh dead with clear eye's too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
