IMHO, when they draw the lake down in the fall, and they expose the silted shallows where the larvae like to burrow, I think they die from the heated soil. Last year was the first in many years the lake got some early fall rains and the lake levels stayed up high enough for the larvae to survive. Again, I am not baseing this on any science, just my observations from previous seasons. It has been a blast so far, going again tonight🤪
