I have fished Jordanelle 4 times in the past 2 weeks and each time I am amazed at all the dead perch floating the surface. Yesterday I made it a point to inspect each perch I saw floating for signs of attack or aggrivation and found only 2 of them to have some sort of teeth marks. The others were all in one piece floating belly up.
Is this because of a predator attacking them and not being able to find the fish after or possibly not being able to fit the fish in its mouth? Or is this a sign of some sort of disease that is killing them off in the lake?
Just curious, there were sooo many floaters yesterday that something has to be up.
