This is a pond at my shop that has a canal connecting it to the sound and after a storm a shit ton of fish died. Also there was a weird oil slick on the surface, a lot of the fish where breathing at the surface like this video.
Also happened at my pond at home (the bass pictures)

Call your local DNR or MNR or whoever is the fish cops near you.

What’s on top of the water? Looks like a film of oil

It’s very likely to be chemical runoff from the storm causing a fish kill. Maybe someone dumped used motor oil in a storm drain nearby.
Turnover doesn’t even start until the surface water temperatures get down into the low 50s. A lot of people see stuff like algae blooms and mistake it for turnover.

Loss of oxygen in the water for some reason.

Maybe there should be all that weird oil on the surface.

It’s hard to tell in this video, but that sheen looks more like the byproduct of harmless iron oxidizing bacteria than a chemical sheen to me. A clearer video of it breaking up would help confirm

Global Warming. Just ask the government.
