He attended the Wednesday night dives to gain more experience diving the local inland lakes and meet others with the same passion for the sport. This included a dive in Gull Lake on January 1, 2013. The water that day was 36 degree

If you're going to get wet you may as well be hanging out below the surface with the fish.
