Thanks for the info and tips. I was snorkling the lake in a bathing suit August last year and it was nice and warm at the surface but there seemed to be a big change at around 12 or 15 feet when I was free diving down it got chilly.

Senter Cove Guy you mentioned that the temp drops below 30 feet. Is this typical throughout the lake?

I only currently own a 3 mil farmer Jon and "surf" jacket with nylon arms that I used for Jetskiing, so I certainly need to invest in something else. I am skinny and don't have a lot of natural insulation so It sounds like a 7 mil one piece would probably be the way to go. I could always add a shorty over it I guess If I had to.

Is a standard 7 mil too warm for any typical lake dives? I usually can't be too warm!
