Lake Allen Henry

Has anyone dove Lake Allen Henry near Post, TX. I've heard it's good diving with boat access only with about 15 feet of vis. Comment and suggestions would be helpful.

Where is it located? I mean, near what bigger city? I've never heard of Post or the lake.

It's about an hour south of Lubbock on State Hwy 84. If you call Lubbock bigger city!

Close to Lubbock, well as close as anything is in the Texas Panhandle.
I have heard that they raised the price of admission to the lake. One of my friends that would rather fish then eat said they priced him out of fishing there.

Thanks for the info scubajoe. With the lack of other replies, I guess there haven't been many divers at the lake. Probably not a lot of divers in that area.
