The water is not moving, the oily sheen looks like from nutrient decomposition. That is most likely the odour. The creek is so overgrown, it can not move. The other side of the bridge has been cut down and there is debris everywhere. The water can not move through the debris.
The plants have overgrown so the sample on the left bank. Cut through the people's yard to the only opening by the creek. There is lots of bugs - wear bug spray. There is a stinging nettle in the field watch your feet and ankles. They could cause a reaction if rub up on them.
The odour of decomposition.

Within 48h of significant rainfall (10mm or more per day). This creek is rerouted still. Lots of natural debris(leaves). It was very foggy in the area. The path to the sample site is overflowed, and the entry way is the ditch which is overflowed. Boots or barefoot recommended.
