I met a guy the other day who owns a 1 acre Lake in cincinnati ohio. He was telling me when his lake was completed he had numerous leaks. He tried several diferent ways to fix the problems, sprinkling etc, with no luck. He finally heard of a guy who was a professional scuba diver/trainer who patched leaks on the side. Apparently the diver came out to his place and patched his leaks by scuba diving in his lake and somehow patching his leaks from the inside.

Has anyone heard of this technique for fixing a leaky lake, if so how is he able to detect the leak from under water and patch the leak?

My reason for starting this thread is that I recently had a 3 acre lake construted about 2 years ago and it has not filled yet. Once last note, I am trying to track this fellow (scuba diver) down and find out if this is legit or not. I will keep you posted.

If anyone has or heard of this technique please let me know. Thanks, Lance in Cincinnati
