BREAKING NEWS: Millions of dead fish invade Redondo's King Harbor - The Daily Breeze

Are these like zombie fish? An invasion takes some kind of conscious act. Dead fish would be more likely to just float or wash in as opposed to mounting an invasion. But if so aim for the head. Destroy the brain and they will not try to eat yours.

Probably the storm had something to do with it...

Bad storm last night with gale force winds.

You think the storm was bad enough to drive the anchovies to shore?

From: Millions Of Fish Found Dead In Redondo Beach Harbor « CBS Los Angeles

REDONDO BEACH (CBS) &#8212; Millions of dead fish invaded King Harbor in Redondo Beach Tuesday morning.
Staci Gabrielli, marine coordinator for King Harbor Marina in Redondo Beach, says boaters awakened Tuesday to find the anchovy-size silvery fish surrounding their vessels.
Gabrielli says it&#8217;s believed the fish moved into the harbor late Monday or early Tuesday to escape a red tide, a naturally occurring bloom of toxic algae that can poison fish or starve them of oxygen.
Gabrielli says high winds apparently kept the fish from leaving the harbor and they all crushed up against the harbor wall, where they used up the oxygen and suffocated.
Gabrielli says there are millions of fish and they&#8217;re so thick in some places that boats can&#8217;t get out of the harbor.
