If you've been out on Lake Lanier recently, you may be wondering… what are those white blobs floating in the water? 🔍
Freshwater clams!
These are becoming more visible and are breaking away from docks, boat lifts, and other structures due to a combination of factors, including:
💧 Lower lake levels than usual
💧 Unseasonably warm water temperatures
💧 A recent increase in lake activity, which has caused some of them to break loose and float to the surface
At this time, we do not anticipate these to pose a risk to humans. We believe this is a naturally occurring part of the freshwater clam lifecycle and current lake conditions.
