County and local experts reported on a mass fish die-off in early September on Clear Lake. Measurements taken by the Lake County Fish and Wildlife Advisory Committee showed extremely low dissolved-oxygen readings throughout the water column at multiple sites; county staff later confirmed similar profiles. Presenters said the event appears consistent with a low dissolved-oxygen (hypoxia) or late-season turnover event rather than a cyanobacteria (algae) die-off. A large dead white sturgeon was recovered and samples have been sent for laboratory analysis; a final written report and mapping are pending.
