Notes

Planned on fishing OsLa #3 w/ Bryce but was surprised to find the water very murky (1'-2' visibility). We tried fishing it for 1/2 hour anyway with no luck. So we moved down to #4 where the water clarity was better, but still murkier than usual, and eventually got into some fish. Bryce did a good job, landing 4 goldens. I got 3 rainbows and 1 golden.

I went back solo the next day with the intent of catching 30+ fish. Started off well, landing 4 in the first 15 minutes. But over the next 2 hours I proceeded to lose probably 25 fish while landing only 5. A nice sized rainbow snapped my 6x at the end of the day.
