Dead fish are piling up on San Francisco Bay Area shores: A toxic algae bloom is the likely cause

algae bloom as the mostly likely cause

Or perhaps, tons of homeless poop washing off city streets into the Bay every day?

[Governor Dinwiddie]

Based on the location I'd say, Monkeypox, AIDS, or Syphilis water contamination.

I’m guessing a sizeable portion of the SF population don’t like the smell of fish.

[RetiredTexasVet]

Or the fish are just committing suicide when they find out they are near SF.

[butlerweave]

so scoop them up and make fertilizer ,LOL

[Secret Agent Man]

I feel bad for the innocent fishes.

That said, its a perfect metaphor locally and nationally.

I first experienced a red tide at Huntington Beach, Calif. in 1960. The water was the color of root beer, but we still went swimming in it.

[LibWhacker]

Whatever you do, DON’T go swimming in San Francisco Bay; you’ll be dead in five minutes.

[Dead Dog]

Buttmonkey pox

[DannyTN]

Are you sure it’s fish and not Pelosi?

[Bon of Babble]

I remember the red tides in Southern California when I was young - we went in the water anyway - and all of us survived.

God only knows what is in the Bay in San Francisco - it always looks - and smells - filthy.

[EEGator]

LOL, I caught that.

It's the cartels sending SF officials a lot of warnings. Not enough fentanyl is getting through.

[rexthecat]

Algae blooms happen along the Pacific coast. No big deal. I don’t think it’s really newsworthy.

[FlingWingFlyer]

Probably from all the sewerage coming up the coast from Mehico.

[MotorCityBuck]

Roll Tide.

True. That innuendo was even known in the early 1900s songs such as:

Rag, Mama, Rag / What’s That Smells Like Fish?
By Blind Boy Fuller

“What’s that smell like fish, mama?”
“Food, if you really want to know.”

“What’s that smell like fish, baby?”
“Food, if you really wants to know.”

“Smell like puddin’ and it ain’t no pie.
Same thing that you know you have to buy.

Make you weep and it’ll make you moan.
Same doggone thing made me leave my home.

Did Pelosi take a swim?

[PghBaldy]

Nancy Pelosi was sitting on pier dangling her tootsies in the water.

I wonder what the Sacramento river outflows are to the San Francisco bay. The ecofreaks demanded high flows from the dams for a bait fish. I am wondering if now during a bad drought, their earlier releases have dropped flows so low that it is hurting the estuary.

Liberals are idiots. Truly. No reasoning. No common sense. Just tyrannical idiology and control.
