Well , being an ex Minnesotan , I would love it....
Only lake I have done is Superior...Not Michigan yet...
Great wrecks on both of those lakes...
The hot thing now it go to Isle Royale on Superior...The local trips up there fill up almost a year in advance...
Lets see , August on Superior...Water temp maybe around 50 at the surface and 40-43 at depth...I have heard that Michigan gets warmer than this...(into the 60's...)

Of course Rick, just after you give me a hand on this drysuit thing next week. Only thing is we cant stray into Canuck water or land as i still probably wont have my visa at that time, but anything from the Yank side is kosher with me 
I would even try my hand at ice diving sometime if the chance was there.

We you dont have to fly quite as far, nor is the weather as much of a change for youQuarrior:Is this limited strictly to people from FL? I'd love to do some wreck dives in the Lakes. Of course, I'd need to get my cert first.
Big shift for some of us, others already have a little extra insulation - Ben for instance wont need a hood with all that hair of his, i wont need as much artificial insulation as i have some natural to compensate
hahaha, jealousy is a terrible thing, but keep taking your shots limey and I'll kick ya off the boat into Canada and getcha deported back home!
Havent you heard Canada's Dry?OneBrightGator:
We wouldnt float into their water.I don't know. Looking at Ben's picture, that hairline seems to be working it's way back, at least on the sides. Won't be long before he catches up with the rest of us.simbrooks:We you dont have to fly quite as far, nor is the weather as much of a change for you
Its changed "a little" since that photo, down by his shoulders now.Quarrior:I don't know. Looking at Ben's picture, that hairline seems to be working it's way back, at least on the sides. Won't be long before he catches up with the rest of us.
IF you can tuck it under the flap (for hoods) that goes over the neck seal then it is obviously too long
