I'm in SW Mo, Beaver is my favorite local dive, and always looking for somebody to dive with. Weekends only until June, free some during the week after that. Be glad to meet up and dive!

Hehe. I was at Lost Bridge this weekend with my family trying to snorkel. I did not have any wet suit on and the water seemed a bit cold to me. Looking forward to getting a new suit. My suit currently does not fit me and I have been contemplating buying another 5-7 mil suit or just make the jump to a dry suit. Thoughts? Anybody know of any good deals?

Yep take a look at Scubatoys and leisurepro both are online. I just bought a new 7mm from scubatoys for $140.00 and very happy its a good suit for not a lot of money.
Ditto what Avon said... I got a great deal at Leisurepro.com... I got a Neosport by Henderson7/5mm jumpsuit with 5mm Hood, 5mm Gloves and 5mm Boots for $160.... Dove in it this weekend with Avon and it was warm and toasty. Avon got a farmer John style suit and if had to do it over again I'd get the farmer johns instead of the jumpsuit.\
Cheers!

Aha... Now your PM makes sense... Will definitely meet you for a dive or 6. I'll probably even rent my daughter a thicker wetsuit and let her get her first dive in for the summer as well. You getting a boat for the weekend or shore diving?

I checked out scubatoys.com last night. The big problem I have is that I am 5'-6" tall weighing in at 282lbs. So basically a short heavy dude. I am thinking I will need a custom made suit.

Hi everyone,
Let me know if you ever want to go diving at Beaver Lake or any other lake in the area. I'm looking forward to getting as many dives in as possible now that I've got a full set of gear.

Brax led me to a tip for a new boat motor so if I get it running again I'll bring my pontoon out, if not well I guess it will be from the shore but Im fine with that to.
And our buddy Brax to night had his college graduation!
Extremediver Give scubatoys a call there shop is out of this world so they mayhave what you need. Their number is 972-820-7667
Hey is Brax on the board? If not would you mind PM'ing me his cell? I'd at least like to text him my congratulations on graduating. Shore diving sounds fine to me and I kind of want to see the bluffs witht hte water this high. SoccerJeni dove them last week and said it was a reall pretty dive. I did hear however that there is a particular cove near lost bridge where all the boaters go to party... could be a good place for treasure hunting sometime.
