CSSP 8/28 Treasure Hunt Anyone?

[CharleyT]

You as well! Please post a report, as being so close to my parents, I wouldn't mind visiting them, and getting wet.

I plan on going to the treasure hunt. I need a dive buddy though. If anyone is interested let me know. I should be there on Saturday morning. on Athens, We did that a few weeks ago. I did not like it. There is no fish and I found out that they put Alum in the water to keep it clear. I had a much better time at CSSP.

TruckDiver-- NOT really whining,,,,just exercising my oppion on the topic! $35 is just a bit steep for the average guy/gal to pay,,they would get better attn. by poss. reducing the park entry fee by $5.

Yea, I agree on the $35 bucks. I'll be out there Saturday, but I won't be doing the Treasure Hunt, just diving..
I don't know if that helps ya out Chevyman, but I will be there. West side just north of the porta- pottie, the usual spot.

CharleyT, Athens is OK I guess, but it's kinda like a dead underwater junkyard, no fish or plantlife. Lots of junk and stuff on the bottom along with the "dive attractions". Also the bottom is the consistency of baby poop, really soft mud that stirs up with slightest touch. I don't think I'll ever go back. But ya know before CSSP opened up, it was our dive spot and we thought it was pretty cool. Go on down and dive it and judge for yourself..

You might want to avoid Athens if you color your hair or don't give your gear a good cleaning after every use. The water is chemically treated so it wreaks havoc with hair and gear. Also last time I was there platforms were on the bottom so any errant fin kicks from classes would white out the viz. CSSP is a big improvement over Athens Scuba Park. Back in the day though it was all we had.

What's the diving like on fridays?....I always go on sat/sun

 

[ScubaTexan]

Fridays are a breeze...only a few classes out there, so we usually have the run of the place, so to speak.
