Found another rotting dead lunker bass today (for a total of 6 known dead bass) but I also caught a nice 4lb bass on my ultralight so I didn't lose all my good bass.
I have noticed that the dead bass have been in the water shield in areas that were sprayed with herbicide so I suspect low O2 combined with the polaris herbicide killed them. Some of the areas that I sprayed with the herbicide didn't seem to have had much affect on the water shield but still had dead bass so I'm wondering if the herbicide itself is somewhat toxic to a bass in marginal O2.
Hadn't had an issue using Polaris in past so a bit mystified.
