Thanks for all the response everyone.
ketchn, the water is dark like you said. If you’ve never seen it first hand, it’s a bit hard to imagine. Water that is really somewhat clear but has a color to it that is darker than tea and lighter than coffee. Visibility varies but it’s not dark like a wind blown lake that gathers color and loses almost all transparency. As you’ve seen most fish are darker than clear water cousins but they aren’t all super dark. I’ve learned to wait til they lay on their side before a positive ID. Very cool to see one come from below, into view, and smack the fire out of your lure and head back south. There’s a momentary hesitation the first time or two as it usually catches you with your mouth in fly trap mode.

HDHNTR, hope the health thing is in the rear view one day soon and you’re back doing what makes you happiest.
