What kind of depth are you finding if you stay within 150' of shore? I know the lake drops quick, but not that quick.

I never had any problems with WSP guys, in fact, I've been swimming in front of their building for 3 years now, and never got even frown upon (hope it'll stay this way). Here's a picture of a peer by WSP building, that happen to be my favorite place for swimming and fishing as it's away from most of the crowds.


As for the depth - I'd say anywhere from 15 to 60 feet.
