I grew up in WI, in Appleton to be precise. Where is this lake, never heard of it?

Doesn't look safe with all of those branches to get caught on!

Looks just like our lakes here. Even our bass could be cousins!

Bruehlt....the trees just make it interesting! You soon learn how to navigate through and around them. It's actually alot of fun and challenging.

Looks like a few of those were taken at the Sherwood Forest dive site there..

Here's a link to a site that has some good info regarding this lake.

One of the clearest lakes in Wisconsin for Diving. Actually was noted in the "Dive Training" magazine as well. I enjoy diving there.

Nice pics. I've been to Lake Wazee a few times and recognize the forest and fish cages in your pics. I also took my first digital pics in Wazee, and I was amazed at what Photoshop was able to do with all that green.

That is a definite improvement.

I'd love to dive it - just need to watch out for that monofiliment fishing line that you can't see!

THAT would make a bad day of diving!

You want deep in WI, you should try Green Lake - of course, that is if you can SEE anything! Its about 130 deep or so at one point, can't remember much, just that we used to swim there as kids.....

They don't call it Green Lake for nothing. I did a dive in Green Lake about 10 years ago, and didn't see a damn thing. For deep diving in WI, there is also Red Granite Quarry and Lake Wazee. I believe Lake Wazee is the deepest in Wisconsin.
