For a while now I've been interested in 'exploring' underwater rather than only spearfishing. I've been wanting to take some underwater shots with my gopro etc.
For anyone who knows the Neath valley (Wales) will know 2 huge lakes on the A465. These are man made, they dug the ground out from there to use for the A465 dual carriageway when they made it, and then filled them in with water.
Over the last 15 years since they were filled the biggest of the 2 lakes has become a hotspot for jet skiers, but today I got in contact with someone who makes a few decisions on the lakes and has allowed me to use it.
The deepest part of the smallest lake is reported at 10 meters and viz around 6 to 7 meters. My biggest us of this lake will be to train and feel more comfortable in the water, testing gear and learning freediving techniques. I only have access to the smallest lake.
I just thought I'd share this with you as if anyone would ever feel like they wanted a little explore here, I could meet up with you. And ill also be sharing this with the boys interested in the Suth Wales club so we can train here
Not sure if there's fish in here or not, but I don't plan on spearfishing here as regular fishing I know is not allowed.
