The day started wonderfully sunny but a hard hail storm came up about 2:00PM just as we were leaving the lake. Hail balls were about 1/2 inch long, and were drive[n] by a hard wind. Our trip by boat was from Lake Station to Clear Creek Fish Traps, to Molly Island & return direct. The Fish traps were just being installed at Clear Creek.
