Biggest plus I've seen as far as taking care of fish, have a huge net and as soon as you net it unhook it in the water and then let it sit there for a few minutes before you take it out for a quick pic. That bit of revival right after the fight does wonders versus pulling it immediately out of the water.

Were there detectable levels of mercury?
Didn't test yet. I will try. Its a different instrument to use from the other metals.

Bacteria wasn't terrible. Fecal Coliform was 200 cfu/ml; Ecoli was 60. Keep in mind that swimming beach/lake limits for fecal is 200 so not bad all things considered. Some beaches are in the tens of thousands because of geese poop.

Oops, that's from me wading into the river. Next time I'll wear clean shorts.
