The water is good at Douglass creek, the vegetation is getting bigger from are last visit. The first time we went there, the plants were small and on the last trip they were really big. Some were taller then me. We caught 20 Macro invertebrates 15 aquatic worms and 5 beetles. The water was too deep and to fast making it very hard to get macro-invertebrates. We could not get any good bugs. The dissolved oxygen content is 70%. 90% is the best oxygen the organic derbies are eating the oxygen. The ph avg. is 8 it is good for life. The temperature is 47 F. the temperature is good until 72F. In conclusion the water is good.
