at least thats the way I understand it.

So pollution could have contributed. I just think they are making abigger deal out of one little cove/fish kill
Heck, it could also be the result of stress casued by blues and bass attacking the school, causing the fish to exhaust themselves. THEN the water quality / low O2 factor might be more plausible.
