halligan903 - 10/19/2019 10:36 PM I went scuba diving here on 10/17/2019. Average viz: 5-10ft/2-3m. Water temp: 71-75°F/22-24°C. Dove the bluffs. Saw a temp of 58 at 80ft. Vis was around 10ft down to 55ft then cleared to 25th down to 85ft then got cloudy below 80ft. Saw several walleye below 50ft

coffii_howz - 7/27/2015 7:47 PM I went scuba diving here on 7/23/2015. Average viz: 21-25ft/6-8m. Water temp: 71-75°F/22-24°C. Went hunting. Visibility was poor at 40’

coffii_howz - 7/27/2015 7:45 PM Not bad. Just dove here last thursday. Found the bug but nothing else. I’ll go back. viz got crappy at 40’

cpharris21 - 5/21/2014 1:29 PM Some consider the Bluffs separate from the scuba park where everyone does their OW. The Bluffs are deep. I’ve been below 130 during tec dives and have been told 180’ is not the bottom. The park is where a lot of the boats and things are. Both good sites.

Agojo - 8/22/2012 3:31 AM Rating Added: 4 Is great with multiple depths. Jim and his wife (owner of C&Js Sports) are the best. Dive it in early to mid March and you may get vis below the thermocline of >100’, cold but amazing for a mid-western lake. Also dive the cove where you turn to go into the park. Several boats, training platforms, etc. Last time I was there they had a treasure chest full of a skull, dagger, colored beads etc. under the bow of a 20+’ fiberglass boat.
