Hey all,
A buddy of mine asked me if I would like to dive Santee Lakes this weekend. I've never been to that location, and never heard of anyone diving it. From what I can see online, it looks like it could be littered with fishing boats and fisherman casting lines all over the place.
My gut said "No" right off the bat, but since I couldn't dig anything up via Google, I thought I'd ask here in case anyone has gone diving there, or knows about the site diving it may just be a plain bad idea, or it may be even be prohibited.
If anyone has any thoughts on the site, or experience with freshwater sites in the county (can't imagine there are many), I'd sure appreciate hearing them.
Some background on me:
I'm a new diver, been diving for a couple months. OW certified. Mostly hitting La Jolla Cove, La Jolla Shores, and the occasional boat dive in the kelp beds off Pt. Loma.
The guy who asked me is a brand new diver, and would not have experience with the site either.
Thank you!
