Anyone want to dive Lake Keowee Hot Hole Feb 17?

the temp looks like it is going to be mid to high 60's I will have 7/5 mil suit, hood and gloves. You can rent a thicker suit at Bill's place or your LDS if you think you need more. Check with Bill at Off the Wall for sizes and prices. I like having a thinker suit in the those temps.

I will bring along my fish feed bag and maybe you can get some picture of them feeding. I love to watch them feed. I would be nice to get some good pictures of the fish.

You don't happen to have the number handy to Off the wall so I can check prices on the rental suits...dont really want to buy one at this point in time.

talked to Bill about the suit thickness and they are two piece suit 6mil on 6mil. He does not rent hoods or gloves. I have a Henderson hood and love it. If you can't purchase one locally, Joe at www.scubatoys.com has them in stock. I really like the extra stretch in that the Henderson Hyperstretch provides.

You need to check with Bill to make sure he has your size suit available as he has a limited number of suits. He is having some computer problems so it is best to call him.

Is that air or water. I might want to do this.

I believe she is talking about the water temp. The question I had was in reference to the wetsuit thickness. Ginnie Springs was 68 degrees when I dove it the last time and I had a 3 mill on and no hoodie. I may try to get a thicker one though.

The water is supposed to be in the mid seventies. If the air is 60', I'm thinking I might be able to get away with a 3mm wetsuit.
