Awesome, informative reply. Thank you.
The small lake I was at a week ago, it hadn't rained in weeks there... So I do believe it was "turning over." I've fished there multiple times before and the water had never looked like that. I paddled way back up the creek that feeds it and the water was clear. Funny thing is, the fishing was tougher back up in the creek than it was down in the cloudy water.
