The dives went really well. BKP and I had a great time. It started raining just as we finished getting the equipment packed. BKP had an O-ring blow just before getting in the water on dive number 2 but was able to replace it without too many problems. we did the first dive starting at a heading of 160 degrees until we hit the quarry wall, then followed it clockwise over to the second out-cropping, then reached turn pressure and headed back. On the second dive we went counter-clockwise out from the entry and went out past the catfish tree area. I used my old ReefMaster since my Ikelite housing is being reconditioned, BKP used his camera but I haven't see the shots yet. I used the HelmetPro video camera on the second dive but only had a 512 meg card in it so only got 14 minutes of video. The temperatures ran from 79 at the surface to 63 at 43 feet. Visibility ran from 20 to 40 feet (near the landing there were several classes and groups stirring it up, out away from them it was almost tropical!)
Here are a couple of shots, one is BKP in the Loch Low Minn bait ball, another is of one of the submerged trees and the last is one of the Bass we saw. We were looking for the spoon bills but I think all the activity had them deep as we didn't see any, we did see several catfish though.

The Paddlefish are usually around 40ft-60ft, to the right of the trench buoy and across to the wall. I saw one a couple weeks ago; 38" -42" long.
I think you'd like it. Holler at me sometime when you're thinking about it. Maybe we can meet up.
