Diving most man made impoundments is exceedingly boring. Here and there a reservoir will have an interesting dive site such as the Paddle Wheel wreck in Table Rock or the Bridge and Bell in the same lake. Most are cold, dark, limited viz--why bother? The springs of Florida are a great freshwater rinse after diving the Gulf. Obviously, I prefer the ocean, any ocean, to mucking around in some mud hole. Sometimes you have to make do. I know divers who dive these Corp of Engineer mud holes and love it--just cannot get into it. Any ocean dive, even a bad one is better than almost anything an impoundment has to offer.
That said I have two quarry dives slated this summer but for reasons other than the actual diving and I imagine I will muck about in Table Rocks ome more.
You know, I hear that lakes don't have currents and I have been told I am crazy but I got caught in some sort of current, underwater land slide--something--in Lake Powell and it was scary! N
