Default RE: Does a dead fish always float?

They may float, then sink, then float again due to gassing and/or water temp.

I have seen lake beds with thousands of fish laying about from assorted kills, with none floating, yet. Such as winter kills or algae kills in summer.

Conditions are what may dictate if they are easily seen or not.


(Some folks try to turn back their odometers. Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way. I've traveled a long way, and the road less traveled isn't paved.)
