I was down this past Monday. The reading on my computer said 71. Thermo cline at around 70’ But at 84’. It was like ice water. Didn’t stay there long enough for my computer to read. But the lake is so low. You have to walk across rocks to get in at dive ramp.
 
Off the divers boat ramp:
  • Surface upper 70's
  • 20' - 60' - low 70's
  • very noticable thermocline at about 60 - 65'
  • 120' - very low 50's
Hood and gloves manditory if you plan to spend any time past 70'.

Dive safe (and warm).
 
Just got back. At 20' (currently the depth of the deep platform) temp was 74. At 85' my computer read 57 and probably dropping. At 100' it was friggen' cold, but not so that a hood and gloves and a lot of neoprene couldn't handle.
