Finally made it back into the pond. Not sure what the water temp was, yesterday there was a reading of 61 degrees. If I had to guess it was probably 60 because it was cold over night. What was strange though was how warm it got out near Rohr’s dock and actually the rest of the way. Wasn’t really sure if it was that I just got used to the cold or it actually got warmer. Turns out that it actually did get warmer, because when I came back just as I passed that same spot coming in toward the beach it got very cold again. The full crossing probably took around 40 minutes and felt kind of slow to me. Last year I seem to remember being able to cross in 35 minutes. Of course that wasn’t in the cold water when you spend the first 400 yards gasping and just trying to get your face back in the water!
