IN SOMETHING of a horror movie plot, a Moulamein man has drained his artificial lake to find the bottom littered with dead carp.

Mr Gibson said draining the lake was a common event on his Moulamein property but the amount of dead fish was unusual.
“There were a few carp in the bottom of my lake,” he said.
