Last Sunday we used 7mm with hood and were pretty comfortable. Water temp was 61º to 63º and we dove to 60' but didn't find a thermocline. That makes sense since the water was so stired up. We did run across a hoola hoop left over from a Peak Buoyancy class. Actually, I think that Josh and I found it back in March and I had forgotten about it until now.

Anyway, keep in touch and maybe we'll get together on Saturday.

Steve.

Hi Steve.....

Yeah.... I think we are going to be over by the 10 lane boat ramp.... I have a friend that is getting his open water cert and doing a couple of his dives Saturday there....I will be with one or two more divers and plan on getting there about 9am.....

If you can make it over there we hit 70 and had fair vis there a couple weeks ago....

If you want pm me and I will give you my cell phone number ...call if you think you want to join us....

Steve, I'll shoot you Dan's email address as he is getting his gear this week and looking to dive, dive, dive! He mentioned going up to the lake all weekend. And I know Ryan, our DMT, is planing on heading up as well to work on his mapping project.

Hey booth....hows it going.... No....didn't move....still here!!!! LOL
A couple of us want to do some boat dives.....what do you think???? I think there is a wall dive that can be reached by boat here at the lake....have you dove that!!!!! If so is it worth getting a group together to dive it????

Lake Pleasant conditions for Saturday (5/10) were pretty good. I dove with Bill (PhxSki) at Beismeyer Point. Water temp at the surface was 69º with probably 15-20 foot vis at 30' deep. The alge looks like it's getting ready to bloom though because vis varied below 40' deep from about 15' to zero. Temperature was 58º at 70' and 54º at 90'. We saw a lot of small fry hiding out in the camp fire rings and rocky areas. We ran into some pretty good sized old timer fish too.

We met Steve and John Nichols. Had a good conversation with them. Hope to dive with them sometime.

Steve.
