Sometimes the bass or bigger fish will run bait shad onto the bank trying to get them. I have seen this a few times.

Seen this on Lewisville as well. Usually the shad get trapped in shallow water and high winds wash them ashore.

Seen this on Lewisville and Hubbard when it's real windy it usually makes for some easy fishing.

No it's a fish kill and biologists are looking for a cause.

Hot water? Lack of 02 ? Chemicals?

Big question: was this one little stretch of shore or over a bunch of shoreline? If that photo is all there is then while odd and puzzling, is not a big worry. If this was everywhere...big worry.

Too bad, another problem for a lake that is already low and not in the greatest of shape.

I hope the 5 LM bass in there don't die. They're all over 10 lbs.
