The shark at Windy Point Private is now completely under water. Dropped down to the deep platform. No change in the normal crappy vis.

Concerning visibility My prediction is that we are on week 2 or 3 of the lake turning and it should clear up shortly.

However, if it keeps raining and we have a big run off into the lake, all bets are off on my prediction for better viz starting the 2nd week In November through the winter months.

Vis was good over the Shaker Plant Sunday morning. Don't know about today. It's been raining cats and dogs in Austin last night and today. Not sure how much is getting into the lake, but the level is expected to hit 643 by the end of the week.

IanR33, Kvalve, TLessard, and Zinc put down 500-600' of line yesterday at Shaker Plant so I would recommend that for the dive. They begin at the mooring line and go to two different sections. Mooring line is at 30' and the lines go to 70'. This is my suggestion.


Lake level - 643.09, up one foot since Oct. 24 posting.

I dove Windy Point (Barstow's) on Saturday afternoon with a group of Scouts. The tip of the shark's fin was just under the water; the water was still a little too shallow to do a giant stride off of platform 3.

Sounds good to me, Robert.

Are the lines all going out to specific areas? Tagged, etc?

Thanks to Zinc, KValve, TLessard, IanR & Capt. Robert for the work!

I think I saw you. I was the female wearing the doubles at the table next to you.
