Lots of fungi and water bugs.
Mosquitoes and Dragonflies
We noticed upon arrival that the water was quite 'cloudy'. By the time we were done (40 minutes) it seemed better. The tablets for nitrate were not the right ones so the Nitrate Nitrogen reading was not valid.
Lots and lots of blackflies, deerflies, and mosquitoes.
Water is deep and moving very fast.
River is much clearer, low tannins. Fast flowing and higher water level, no sign of ice.
