Hi. I have been diving a few years. Am currently a PADI Divemaster working towards AI. Dive alot in Pearl Lake and Haigh Quarry. Try to get in a Lake Michigan charter once a month from late spring thru fall. Usually get to thaw out somewhere warm once a year. I also work closely with my dive club, Midwest Divers in Hanover Park, IL.
Nice to find this forum!

Welcome Julie. I'm hoping to get up to Haigh this year, maybe I'll see you there. Be sure to tell all your dive club members about us :D.

Hi and welcome to the Board. My husband and I want to dive the Great Lakes - hopefully this year. I will have to email you and get some specifics about diving in your area.

Feel free to e-mail me! I have only been in Lake Michigan out of Chicago and Milwaukee, but I'll share what I know. Chicago is shallower, warmer later in the summer. Milwaukee is deeper, usually a little colder, but some great, intact wrecks. The water is pretty clear. 30-100 feet vis at the sites I've visited.
I hope to do my first Lake Superior diving later this summer.

I'm looking forward to working on my 'advananced' open water in Superior this summer also.
Welcome to the board!
