Lake Jocassee update

Look at the very end of the ramp, very close to the bottom...unless it has been broken loose, and it does from time to time, the line goes out to the 1st platform. The platform is about 40 feet away, and if memory serves correctly, about 45 degrees compass heading.

Lake was 64 degrees from 110' to surface Saturday.

There should be a visible buoy on the surface.

They put up a large buoy at the graveyard, you can see it quite well when leaving the dock or the divers ramp.

Any one know the current temperature of the lake? Thanks. Never mind, I see LJDS just updated the temp. to 50" and rising. I'm gonna need more "Depends".

Beautiful Fall day yesterday at Lake Jocassee. Water temperature 68F at 25-40 feet. We didn't go deep--just practicing skills. Water level is pretty low, due to the drought, I suppose.

Low water means shallower forest.

I am headed to Lake Jocassee the first weekend in June for a few dives. I think most of our dives will be less than 60 feet deep, but we will have one that is in the 80-100 foot range. What thickness wetsuit do y'all recommend that time of year?
