The water is so clear.  I've never fished this lake.  I have taken rainbow on a previous backpack to Lake 8771 to the southeast, leaving the trail at point just before it begins it's steep descent toward the North Fork Baron Creek.  I look back to the north and see someone dive into lake.  Fearing cardiac arrest, I'm not quite ready to take that plunge!
