Thanks ,

you will get the diving adventure of your life. There are wrecks down there and lots of fish. Visibility is usually great unless the wind is from the north. It comes down Lake Huron and really shuts it down. I have been in that current with 6 inches of visiblilty and it really sucks.
Have fun but be careful. Tie your dive flag to the rail and don't try to take it into the river with you. You will be dragged to Lake Erie.

There are usually plenty of divers there to give you advice
 
dove there many times years ago now live in fl. watch out 11 mph current!!! used to be a cement factory there so lots of cabling etc in water. pulled many a full tool box out over the years!old factory employee said it was easier to toss than inventory every spring!
 
called the Ben Hur and the Trumble. They were lost and forgotten until a big freighter sank in the 60's I think it was. The freighter was setting on bottom but the deck was still above surface and the nose was into the American side.

This diverted the current and when it did the two wooden wrecks were washed into the open. I have not dove there in years but we sure found a lot of stuff in the early years.

The Monarch is a small tug on the Canadian side and there is a Wreck called the Martin just above the bridge.

That can be tough diving and is best done with someone experienced in it. I did a drift off the bow of the furtherest wreck, I forget which one it is now. We worked ourself out to the bow, which is in 67 ft of water and just let go. We sailed like a bird and worked ourselves to the shore. On a clear day there is just so much to see down there and when the walleye are in you can drop down behind wreckage and just set there and watch them swim by. I saw a huge sturgeon there from the distance of 8 inches! The dang visibility was only a foot and it scared the crap out of me and I could not figure what I was seeing at first. I am not sure how long it was because I could not see the whole thing but it just took off. Only one I ever saw.

I have not dove there in years
