VAN BUREN TOWNSHIP: Fish kill on Belleville Lake to be investigated
Township officials said they have received several reports of a significant fish kill on Belleville Lake and has contacted the Michigan Department of Natural Resources and Environment to investigate.

The fish kill seems to be the result of high water temperatures and low dissolved oxygen, township officials said. There is no evidence of a toxic spill.

anybody seen this out there?? ROI had a tourney out there yesterday.

Nope no sign last Tuesday and I was out today, nothing at the east end, I only went past firecracker island though, caught lots of smallies, seen alot of shad last week, big shad on top of the water though, they were everywhere, seen alot dead floatin, boat traffic goes through the school and kills alot

I was there saturday and saw a few dead carp. But thats pretty normal for that lake.

seen some dead catfish but no dead bass.  fishing was tough tho

I was there Sat also and saw 1 good size bluegill floating upright tilted up with his lips at the surface but not moving at all. Fishing was tough, lots of fish but keepers were hard to come by for me.
