Default Three dead fish

My in-laws lived on Salmon Meadow Cove and each April, we'd see the same thing. I'm pretty positive what you saw was a white perch sunning it's belly. It's a phenomenon that we could never explain. The raccoons and eagles loved it though as it was easy pickings for them. I believe it has something to do with spawning. No fish apocalypse, but expect to see it again each year around this time as the sun begins to heat the surface water up.
