This is probably due to the fact that the bluefish are  chasing the Menhadden
(bunker ) into the harbor and up Branford River  . If  you look at the dead
fish closly you might see big bites out of them or they  might have died due to
so many fish being in the river they depleted it of  oxygen  This happens
every year
