Notes

I tested a few days earlier than the regular scheduled testing weekend because I won't be in the area to test at that time.

Water looked very murky. Last time I tested there were fish jumping pretty consistently but this time I didn't observe any. There were a few kids fishing from shore that said they had just arrived.
