more massive fishkill

omega protein-a texas based company operating from reedville, virginia-ripped a net while hoisting 75,000 pounds of menhaden near hampton beach this past week: 20,000 pounds of dead fish washed up a few days later...omega protein reported the fishkill spill and cleaned up the dead things. i wonder if a similar unreported incident caused the huge-but-not-as-large-as-this-fishkill along the eastern seaboard last week....hmmm....
