A wreck is laying here with the front into the shoreline. To the south there is a slope covered with stones. In the warmer months, specially during nightdives there is a lot of fish. Unfortenately the visibility gets very poor as the water is getting warmer. The best time to dive is spring when pike-perch is coming to spawn.

The picture is taken in may 2009 in a freshwaterlake called de grote Hegge. There is a wreck and Sander lucioperca is coming there to lay eggs. The mail protects the aggs and there is a good oppertunity to take some pictures.
