Lake Powell - Early September - Spearboard.com - The World's Largest Spearfishing Diving Boating Social Media Forum

I'll be out on a boat in Lake Powell for a few days at the beginning of September and I'm debating bringing the spearfishing gear. I'll definitely be bringing the freedive gear so I figure I might as well bring a gun.

Has anyone been diving there recently or have experience at Powell? I know the water level is very low. Any idea what sort of visibility I can expect?

The water temp data shows it should still be upper 70s. Am I right to assume that there will be a strong thermocline into cold water? In Arkansas it was always a "too hot at the surface, too cold at the bottom" situation.

3mm? 5mm? rash guard?
