St Clair River? I miss that place (especially at the end of the summer when the water is warm top to bottom and the wind is coming from the...... I think South??).
Actually it is the Saint Joseph river in southwest Michigan. I have dove this spot many times - its usually one of the last places to freeze around here, so in the winter any open water is welcome! During the summer there are too many boats and vis is poor, winter vis can be up to 15 feet!
This was definately the fastest water I've ever been in, didn't realize the current was as bad as it was until after we got in. I think we are going to wait a couple of weeks for the river to calm down again - it was 50 degrees today so next weekend will be a lake instead!
