Hi from Nashville

Hey Bob,

I'm about 45-60 min. south of you in Manchester. I too recently got back from Panama City. We dove w/ Hydrospace. Great people! We should get togeather some time and check out Marthas. I've been wanting to see how it is.

My time has been kind of tight lately, but I'd like to do a dive at Martha's. A buddy of mine who recently got certified would like to go out there, too. Let me know a couple of weeks in advance and we could probably head out there. Last time I dived Martha's, the vis was about twenty feet. Lots of bluegill and some bass. Supposedly there are some catfish if you know where they hang out. There are some sunken structures, like the old pump house, that you can dive through. Standard quarry stuff.

I don't think I can squeeze a trip in right now. Let me know next time you're diving Dale Hollow Lake. I think it's about 31/2 hours from us in Nashville. I've never dived there. How are the diving conditions at Dale Hollow?

Hmmm...I thought I remembered it being more like 2 1/2 hours from Nashville but, oh well. As for the diving conditions, I did two dives there two years ago in July and, if I remember correctly, temps were in the 80s on the surface and in the 50s at depths of 50-60 FFW. Vis was maybe 5 to 8 feet.
