I hope the Giant Armadillo didn't suck him down the hole and tickle him till he spit out his Reg.

I'm going there with my daughter's family next month, thot we'd do some canoeing, and they always like to get in the water no matter how murky so I'll take some snorkel and rescue gear, but hadn't thot it'd be worth taking scuba gear. Would appreciate a report...???

Huh?Who doesn't dive at Broken Bow?
Broken Bow is an absolute AWESOME dive lake ! ! !
You are cheating yourself if you don't dive BB when given the chance. Seriously.
Well Im back and alive.
Arrived mon night to a nice OK. style thunderstorms, lucky they did not turn out as bad as we were hearing on the way their.
Tue. morning broke out all the dive gear at the "beach". Decided to give that spot a try for the easy access, because I did not feel like hiking down the cliff at my usual dive spot with doubled lp95's. The dive was good, vis was not as good as I had hoped. In most spots I was looking at about 4-5 feet vis. Saw tones of fish, max depth was only about 25 feet and stayed down for about an hour. Water temp was decently warm I was diving dry and just had sweat pants and a t-shirt on and stayed plenty warm.
Wed morning decided to hit up my usual dive spot out by the damn. Vis was much better averaged 5-10 feet. Hit 60 feet, and stayed down for another hour. I will have to look at my computer but, I think it only got down to the mid 60's. The hike down to the lake about killed me with those steel tanks, but this dive spot is much better.
All in a all great diving again out at BB, Forgot my allen wrench for my tanks but luckily I had my din adapters, also forgot my drysuit under garments but stayed warm. I will say it again this is by far my fav. dive spot in the area, hopefully I can make many more dives out here this summer.
