Machali Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 Hello everyone ! Like the topic title, i am trying to understand how the fish behave after a forest fire. Probably you have heared about forest fires in Portugal (an huge problem every summer here) and this week, the lake where i am spending the most of my carp sessions was affected by it. There were no victims and the fire was extinguished 27 hour after the first ignition detected. The flames stopped in one of the margins of the lake what helped the fight againsty the flames. https://twitter.com/i/status/1154083874944638977 Does anyone of you have an idea of how the fish may behave after that?

Golden Paws Posted July 26, 2019 Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 Very little I would have though as fish live in the wet stuff. An intense fire would throw the flames high in the air so it would have minimal impact on Oxygen levels in the lake. If any trees fell into the lake, that could create an instant 'snag' swim and could be worth investigating.

Machali Posted July 26, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2019 So probably the fish will keep the same habits some hours after the fire? I'll may investigate it next week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
