Ready to get wet

[SteveBF]

Don't know about all of you but I have not been in the water since October (Beaver Lake) and I am about ready for things to warm up! I actually had a dream about diving last night. :blinking:

Cheers!

Three weeks ago I had a dream that I was diving the Defiance in Lake Huron. LOL A dive beyond my capabilities at this time.

I could not stand it so I went and dove on Beaver a few weeks ago. and its about time again!

Good grief... the lake has to be in the 50's... too cold for my 3mm suit... how was the viz?

I have a buddy that dived the dam site south this last weekend.
He said they only went to about 22 ft deep because they were dialing in doubles.
The viz was 30ft + & temps are up to a balmy 47 degrees.

so they have the gates open at the dam parks? Thats the area that I like to walk in at but the last few times I went down their all of the gates were locked down.

I was there on Saturday Feb 26th & the gates were all locked.
I guess they opened them or maybe they sneaked their way in?
I will have to ask.

Heres a cheap option, keeps me nice & toasty to about 42 degrees...

I dove Mermet Springs two weeks ago. The quarry had recently turned over and the viz was 8' at best. The surface temp was 42 and 39-41 at depth.
