Had a great time at the ramp today, did 2 dives, The first one I went and did the poker run, max depth 57' temp 63. The second dive was off to the right of the ramp to a nav course, max depth 44' temp 65. Stopped by Jocassee Dive shop and saw Brandon, glad to see him again. All in all, a very good day of diving!

I got in two really good dives yesterday(6/18/11) We got out to the lake a little early Rick was the Capt. we hit the water at 8:51am . The water was warm 78* at surface and at 109' was 54*
Viz was good . At 70' 20' TO 30'+ above was a little MURKY 15' ISH . For our second dive Rick took us over to a spot to the right of the dam . Lots of really cool rock formations and downed trees and big stumps . seen some really BIG bass It was good to see you Art

Sounds great Ken. We are thinking about doing the ramp next weekend (Saturday).

It was good to see you again and finally meet Tony. Only went down to 72' at the wall, but that was at the thermocline...it looked neat to see how the vis increased just below the thermocline. Enjoyed the dive along the shore to the side of the dam and like Ken said, there were some really neat rock formations. Hope to dive with you guys again!

If you all get a chance to dive Jocassee again, make sure you dive the Mt. Carmel Graveyard. One of the most interesting/rewarding/cold dives you'll get to do . Im fascinated by it. And while your down, take note of the dates on the headstones.

It was nice to meet you too, Art. That was some nice diving and neat rock formations. Next time, I am bringing my camera. There was several nice bass on that dive and some unusual mating habits with those rock formations. Maybe I can get the Discovery Channel to do a tv show!

It's on my list of to do's!
