Where did the fish go during the flood?

Do Floods kill fish?

Freshwater flooding from rain or saline storm surge may trap fish in an inappropriate salinity. If this happens rapidly and the fish have no escape, species that are intolerant to changes in salinity may die. Low dissolved oxygen is by far the most common cause of post-storm fish kills.

Why do rivers get stocked with fish?
