Three of us dove this morning. Lake is up a bit from the rain. Vis held out ok - about 10'. Nice sunny day in the upper 50's post dive. We began our dive heading E. to the three big rocks - lots of small fish today. We then turned northeast past the pool filters to the 40' ledge. We swam the ledge and then dropped to the angel statue and onward to the trench. We exited right of the trench, past assorted anchors to the bouy line then downward through the forest to the 100' wall. As we made our turn South on the 100' wall, we came upon a large cat who decided to assist us in improving our navigational skills by stirring up the silt as it made it's escape. I dove much of the 100' wall w/o light. We angled upward to the 80' wall on our journey south. No lights were needed. vis was about 10'. We swam the entire 80' wall and onward to the missle. I re-laid the line from the wall to the missle as the line was broken and it was mixed up in the dead hydrilla. As I finished the repair of the line,
Dave seemed concerned about the numbers on his computer (they are only numbers Dave
, they only have meaning if you assign meaning to them
- ok so my brain was a bit frozen. As an older diver Dave you do need to be more conservative - 
- don't worry, you're holding up pretty good for 48). Anyway, we headed east after the missle and back upward to the 3 big rocks and the school of small fish. On our way back to the plane we ran into the Godzilla carp (mega huge guy) we see from time to time. After a brief swim around the plane, we neatened up the bouyancy course and cleaned off the flamingos and the ski boat. Heading upward and back toward shore, we played our favorite safety stop game :whack: off tossing logs at each other -diving is a contact sport. We ran into three small and very lethargic catfish on the way back and a large gar. Nice day of diving. I could still feel my toes- water temp was 45 or 48 depending on whose computer. Dive time was 56 minutes with max dedth of 93'. 4-5 of us are diving again tomorrow.
