It has been a long time since we have had summer in these parts!

LMB to Man (Dwight) -- keep out of our pond with your tools. We live here and will defend our space.

That one LMB is probably the only LMB in the civilized world that would attack a Secchi Disk. Lure potential, minimal.

Maybe a little green algae bloom (transparency down a tad bit) and a slight uptick in the DO levels??

Yep and those DO lines are going to cross (top highest , Mid next and bottom lowest - but still high) as a result.

The clarity and temperatures (other than the bottom temp) are heading upward. DO is dropping in correlation with the water temperatures rising. After the readings we taken, we had 2.1 inches of rain in a thunderstorm. That will churn things up in the clarity department for a few days. Even weekly observations are just a snapshot of a single moment in a dynamic pond environment. Weekly Update

I recall that your summer clarity peak was earlier last year.
Good morning Dave, I've checked the ships systems, and everything appears to be running normally.

The clarity really shot up. Is that common ? I would have thought that with summer plankton it would not do that.

Hmmm. Did your green algae start their late summer/early fall spike just at the same time that the heat really hit?

That appears to be the case. This clarity change is huge for week's time. I fished for a while while I was out there and the LMB seem to like the changes. Last week I couldn't buy a decent fish. Yesterday I caught eight LMB; two 20 inch and six in the 14-15 inch range. Perhaps they were Blinded by the Light last week.
