I can understand low Oxygen, but there's been nothing abnormal to deplete the oxygen levels. It's spring, not scalding hot summer, water may be dropping, but still moving. Wind has been blowing good, which helps the oxygen in the water......I wouldn't believe it's low oxygen, fish would be coming up also

Trust me crawfish don't migrate, if they did we would see them crossing from cut to cut in the rice fields. Also they would be dead ones everywhere there was a pond next to a road.

You see the ones laying in on their sides, in a couple of the pics, that is what they do when the water quality, OXYGEN, gets low in the rice field ponds if we get behind on pumping fresh water to help out. I beleive where these are, only rain will give them freshwater.
