Don't intend to scare you guys off but this is a horrific story that we all need to be very mindful of. Good luck to you guys and please be safe. Wish I had the time to make the trip. I look forward to the post report.

TPWD knows the problem. It's basically low O2 levels caused by algae. The hot water creates lots of algae, first good front in late summer or early fall that causes a few cloudy days causes the algae to consume O2 rather than produce it.

We will be careful out there guys I promise! I generally try and stay as far away from any boats as I can anyways. Thanks for posting that article Lusca. Good read. I figured it would have something to do with oxygen levels but didnt know algae was the cause!
