December and January have had temps in the low 40’s with 30-40’ viz. most of the quarry is 15-20’ deep with a trench along the edge that gets to 30’ deep. For a small quarry lake this has a decent diversity of fish. Ive seen bass, bluegill, catfish, walleye, goldfish, crappie, perch, paddlefish, carp and numerous turtles here. There are several attractions such as cars and boats sunk in here but they are showing some age now.

I’ve not seen any of the paddlefish yet. Where do they like to hang out?
Lutra - 12/27/2024 10:58 PM
Sorry i didn’t see this until a year later… i have seen them the most in the trench by the north and east cliff (i have a good video of them by the trench platform). Once i saw one south of the boat with the toilet in it. If you have your cold water gear let me know if you want to dive it soon.

Thanks for the info, I’d love to get to see them while I’m there. I didn’t as much local diving this year because my boys and I were working on spreading out our footprint on the map of places we’ve been diving.

fair enough, we do a lot of Florida trips but I’d like to get more Great Lakes trips in the books. It’s just harder to find people who are good with the cold lol
