I wasn't sure if an alligator snapper would go after ~15lbs carp...but ya never know.

There were some strong storms recently but nothing the fish haven't experienced before, especially not to wipe out 4 of those guys that have survived a long time... seems too coincidental.

I had a big kill of around 60 or so BG when starting up aeration a long time ago due to so much toxic sediment disruption. Didn't loss any carp though, those guys just beached up on the edge of the water till everything stabilized....they are super strong fish.

Vortex, I do have a heron that visits each day for some snacks but he has been coming for years and never gets anything too big. He's too lazy, lol.

It almost has to be some type of new predator going after them but I can't figure out what it is.
