New member question square lake or not

It's a bit of a haul for you, coming from Rochester, but I really enjoyed the dives I did at Lake Ore-B-Gon, in Gilbert, MN. About an hour past Duluth. The lake is an old open pit mine, so with little vegetation, water clarity is pretty good. There's a lot to see - perhaps a dozen manmade objects (helicopter, rail car, etc.) plus the remains of an old forrest that was flooded when the water level rose. A decent number of fish in the shallows.

If you like beer, Fitgers in Duluth is a great place to stop for lunch or dinner.
