I have been thinking for a while that I would like to do some wreck diving in the lakes. Being from WV the closest lake would be Erie and the southern tip of Huron is also a reasonable drive.
If I were to drive up for a long weekend planning to get 4 or 5 dives in, where would be the best wrecks in these areas, what are the depths, vis. and water temps. and when does the algae bloom begin in ernest? I am a dry suit diver.
Or would I be better off taking a week and going to Lake Michigan to get good wreck diving opportunites?
Dive shops and charter service links would be welcomed and appreciated. Naturally when I decide on a date I would welcome any SCUBABOARD members to join me. I did this in the PNW and had a great experience meeting all the SBer's from the local area and I had a couple great dives.
PM me if you like, I would like to get out to do the lakes this spring. I will be taking a short trip to Florida next month to dive Ginnie Springs and get in a couple of dives out of West Palm Beach so I would hope to get out to the lakes in late March or April and maybe bring a buddy or two or maybe come alone. Either way I would like to meet some of the local SBer's. The locals always know the best dive spots anyway.
