Rip Tide in Lake Superior

[FMT]

Keep in mind that if the current is a bit strong you can drop to the bottom and do a little "Lake Superior Rockin." In other words you can use the hand-over-hand technique to pull yourself along the bottom. Your not going to hurt the rocks. Your have to be careful about grabbing onto the wreck but the rocks won't mind. This technique is a bit hard on neoprene gloves but the blue dry gloves seem to take it well.
Then again there are days at the Madeira where one should thumb the dive just looking at the water.
