Anywhere thawed out yet?

Did somebody say "spear" ?



Matt, you guys should really try and dive Government pier when the wind is down. Vis is well over 60' in the winter and there's all kinds of crap to fin on the bottom- not to mention the fish. Weaving your way through McKinley marina is also an easy way to blow some bubbles and find stuff- just be careful for the dead cats with rocks tied around their necks that I would come across sometimes.

For about a two year period there were a group of us who would meet up on Sunday mornings in the winter to dive one of the marinas- and go to the Chancery for all you can eat chicken afterwords.

On days when the harbor was frozen over we would drag our gear out on sleds to south gap and tie an anchor line onto the light house to dive the outer wall. It was a, fairly, easy way to hit 40' and look for lost fishing gear in the super clear water that Lake Michigan brings in winter. I would still prefer to dive off the Lender in winter, but these were still fun dives with very little walking.
