Anyway, about an 1-1/2 before dark and the passing of the building T-storm the winds dropped off to maybe a ripple. Then there was a sheen or slick develop along the break that runs N-S in the middle. What seemed like only minutes, maybe 15, the sheen started turning a light green. Then it became very pronounced with a smell and made the water look like antifreeze. Actually, like a river of antifreeze running down the middle of the lake. My neighbor became concerned about health issues so we moved up North away from the slime, then when the sun just started to approach the horizon the winds died completely with maybe a occasional "gust" of 5mph. At this point, the green started showing along all of the breaks and the water looked weird. We headed for the ramp and the deep water in front of it was much better and then darkness sent us home. I've never seen anything like that and it was such a "experiencing" site. Just plain weird if you ask me.
