Waterbury Reservoir

[Didje]

Hello all,

Has anyone been diving in Waterbury Reservoir lately? I can't seem to find any scuba related info online (depth charts, viz and water temperature for instance). Wondering if anyone can help a brother out.

Cheers!

Here are all the charts for Connecticut lakes and ponds. Not sure what will be in the reservoir in Waterbury. Thrown away guns and a few stolen cars, I suppose.

Thank you sir.
Not sure how those charts are helpful but I will keep an eye out for sunken stolen cars; who knows, maybe we'll be wreck diving!
Cheers

Found this - it may be helpful. In NJ not all reservoirs or bodies of water allow SCUBA. Your mileage may vary but these locations seem to have better water quality based on the info provided...

Thanks. I am surprised that there is no such info for the Waterbury Reservoir.

Yes, Go Bruins. Habs suck anyway ;-)

Waterbury reservoir??? I'm from Waterbury and never thought of diving there... Actually a scary thought!
Did you dive it? Would love to get a report about it?

Actually, here is a link to the other thread I posted, with a link to the video we put together after diving the Reservoir: Diving Waterbury Reservoir, Vermont

You should definitely dive there!

That is pretty funny - how many of us thought you were diving Waterbury CT? Lol Who knew VT had a Waterbury Reservoir?

OK That makes sense.. Actually there is also a town in Vermont called Waterbury!
