Spoke to someone who dove there last weekend. Actually, not Sandy Channel, but Bassways. They said it was a brisk 52 degrees F. They dove dry, but I imagine a 7mm would be sufficient.

Just curious about Bassways. Is it in the lake system around Sandy Channel? We are looking at heading out to Sandy Channel in the next couple weeks. Any other dive site here in Nebraska would be welcome. We did our certs in 52F water last year. Not bad till the mask removal. Woooo!

DIRECTIONS TO BASSWAY STRIP
From I-80, take Minden exit (#279) south. Head south until you cross Platte River(about 3/4 mile from I-80). Immediately after bridge, turn left (east) onto gravel access road. Access Road heads back north and recrosses Platte River with smaller bridge. Follow access road across bridge, then around corner into parking area. Dive area is south of parking lot.
Hope this helps. Let us know how the diving is. Just got back from Table Rock this weekend, so next diving opportunity for me will probably be Sandy Channel in early June.
