Dive Report - December 20th, 2006

Today was a great example of how expectations can be pleasantly swept aside. Standing on the dock at the basin of the Alexander Henry, despite beautiful sunshine, the howling gale and substantial seas it was churning up led us all to believe that visibility would be limited. As it turned out, we could see from 25-35 feet throughout the dive. That allowed us to see a Northern Pike, a shoal of small Perch (in the Eastern basin), several Large Mouth Bass and a probable Freshwater Drum.

For those who like to keep track of the water conditions, the Lake was down to 40F (4C). It can't be long before we get down into the rather intimidating 30s. All power to Chris Haslip, who dived wet today - uncomplainingly.
