So I have a part time Gig as a line handler in providence River for tankers offloading on both sides of the river .

And to my surprise over the past 2 weeks there has been dead peanut Bunker all over the place and I saw 1 full size bunker swimming erratically in circles .. this morning the same dead peanut bunker

Not sure if it has anything to do with the Tugs creating turbulence and drowning them That seems to be the only thing that happens At every dock . Could be pollution? But it’s not hundreds of fish just a few dozen . Any thoughts?
