After the devastation of Hurrcane Florence in eastern North Carolina, there is finally a break in the clouds. Some good news from the North Carolina Wildlife Commission. They are reporting that they are finding sportfish, such as largemouth bass, crappie, and sunfish, in the rivers in the eastern part of North Carolina.
This is especially good news after reports of massive fish kills in all the rivers in eastern NC due to Hurricane Florence, and to a lesser extent Hurricane Michael. Find the full story below. Hope you enjoy the read.
After dissolved oxygen levels returned to normal, biologists began conducting electrofishing surveys to determine the extent and severity of the fish kills. Click the link above to watch the video.

From the NC wildlife commission.
"Nearly three months after Hurricane Florence caused substantial fish kills in many coastal rivers in North Carolina, fisheries biologists with the Wildlife Commission have found largemouth bass, sunfish and crappie in all rivers surveyed to date, albeit in reduced numbers." MORE
