Calling GA Divers for a Phone Rescue

[DunkTankDiver]

Calling GA divers, help me retrieve my phone. His holiday season I visited family and decided to try some fishing off the pier at Flower Branch Park in Flowery Branch, GA. While at the pier I got a call and fumbled my phone into the lake. The below pic shows exactly where I was standing on the pier. As a diver myself I had to try to find it. Shout out to 2000 leagues for being open and renting me gear. As fellow GA divers knows Lake Lanier is not by any stretch a clear lake. The depth right off the pier is only 8’-10’ but dark and silty like no other. I tried and failed. There’s a sunken log and large rocks (fishing snags) right off the pier so be cautious. I’d try again but I have to depart ATL. So if any local divers in GA find a iPhone 11 Pro Max in a black waterproof case right off the the south side of the pier, please reach out to me.

Suggest you also contact the dive shop closest to this lake, as well as a local divers group on FB, if one exists.

If the waterproof case holds enough air to make it partially buoyant it might drift away.

On facebook there is a group called "georgia dive buddies", and a few people that regularly dive Lanier post in there. You might try reaching out there as well.
