Fish Kills?

Just wondering how bad others think the fishkill will be this spring in the northeast when the ice finally melts off. The reason for my question is that I just did some practice casting at a pond near my office that is a late freeze/early melt pond and noticed a 18" carp belly up where the ice is starting to break up.

I have only seen this one time - on the Assabet river in Stow, MA. Took the rowboat out for some bass fishing and as I paddled upstream noticed belly up bluegills everywhere. Thought it might have been pollution but the bass seem to have survived OK and I know that river is now fairly healthy. Still kind of shocking to see but hey, at least the catfish were happy :D
