That's not good! Wonder what the cause of death is?
We did not see any on the banks at Engineers point. I guess probably all total yesterday we probably saw maybe 30 fish floating and like I said most of those were drum.
Bet I saw 25 crappie and no telling how many stripes and drum Friday floating in lake.. North bank is awful smelling
Wonder what's causing that ? weird !!!
Did they have a thunderstorm over there anytime last week? sometimes a lightening strike to the lake can kill a bunch.
Gator must have killed em last week with all that ugly. LOL

Don't know about that Gator! I'm guessing you got enough ugly on your own to kill off a couple of hunnert. BRM would just triple that.
It happened a few years ago this time of year there to. I was told it was due to the stress of the spawn.
LOL, look in the mirror
Low water conditions and heat with algea bloom will pull all oxygen and lake will turn.
Its early but this is most likely the case.Quote:

They starved to death.
What Torch said, nothing to be alarmed about at all!!
BINGO!!! I think we have a winner!!! Water turning over early!!Quote:

For this year it's early. Everything is early. It's like nature is saying ok, let's get this crap out of the way, it's 2012.Quote:
