Very interesting chemical analysis.
Were there detectable levels of mercury?
It's theoretically possible that some disease came through and knocked off a percentage of the population. Look what happened to the Smallmouth in the Delaware when the columnaris disease appeared. Those populations still haven't recovered.
Of course increased fishing pressure is always a factor. Especially for big fish that require many years to reach trophy-sized proportions.
