Holmer Lake in Telford was closed to the public on Friday after dozens of dead fish were spotted floating on the water on Thursday morning by anglers.
Taking to social media to explain the situation, Telford Angling Association said they believed the lake had been “contaminated” resulting in the loss of many of the smaller fish.
They said: “Eight to 10 bream have died but most of the dead fish were small perch. The carp fine so we think we caught it early enough yesterday morning.
