lake elmo

[arcFlash]

Picking up an old topic:

I've been able to dive Elmo 2 times this summer, 2 dives each. I think it's a good lake but you do need a boat or permission to trespass I guess.

Boat traffic is a little heavy but they go down the middle and with a steep shore profile you're real close to shore but still in 20+ feet. Vis right now is about 10, deeper it gets a lot better, Maybe 15-18 with lights. It's not too dark at 100. Soft but some odd bottom features like steps in the clay. Lots of old steel beer cans with good paint still on them.

The north end is mostly hard on the east side, north of the boat ramp (on the opposite site). South of the ramp has hard spots going to soft to very soft (bottomless)

I have not dove the west side.

I pulled one nice 8lb mushroom anchor, "Hooker USA". Yes, It's for sale
