Brokenbow

Anyone ever dive Brokenbow in OK? Thinking of making a run up there in a couple of weeks to hold me over until Travis clears up. Can anyone suggest good shore-accessible sites

Don't know what Alan sent, but we usually go to the Stephens Gap area. Eagle Run road or something like that. Close to the marina, turn off the highway (259) like going to the marina but at the stop sign where you would turn right to go to the marina turn left, then the first right and go all the way down to the end of the road.

We also usually do the Stephens Gap area, but in the summer. The thermoclines are nasty but I've enjoyed diving the lake overall.

I love diving at Lake Broken Bow.
I have a webpage I did on it that you might want to check out.

Give us a yell if your thinking about going up there sometime

Thanks everyone, Rick and I might try it in early April. So many holes, so little time.

Here's a TerraServer photo...USGS one. You can see the marina, dam, and the Island is off the tip of the peninsula, and the "Dip" is the narrow area just to the west of the Island where it looks like the peninsula is almost cut in two.

Hey Mike.... have you dived the " Big Banana " at Broken bow yet??
The attached photo has a map to it

Nope, looks like a fun one though! LOL.

Guess that's the spillway instead of the Dam in the TerraServer photo I put up. Oopps.

Here's a pic. of Frank (Timeliner) taking a picture of a freshwater jellyfish at Stephens Gap. I thought I had set the white balance but apparently not, so it's not that good of a pic.
