Yep, it is back to 2 to 2-1/2 feet of visibility. Dang. Water is fishable, I hooked three in a hour or so (all small - none landed), but any wading deeper than your knees is tricky.
First two pictures are Thursday when the water was clearer
last three are today.
As Miss Emily Litell would say: Never Mind
Just heard a rumor from a reliable source that the water went off-color again this week-end.
Heading over to Ash Camp right now to check it out.
Water color has cleared up on the McCloud. Visibility is 5-6 ft which is it's normal glacial tint.
On the other hand the smoke has gotten real bad in the last 2-3 days. It is from the July and Happy Camp fires, I think (90,000+ acres combined). Wind is N-NW now and forecast to change direction on Tuesday, so it looks like we have a couple more days of smoke to deal with.
