No way the water was 35 degrees. That's Gulf temperatures. I don't think any sizable freshwater lake in Canada comes that close, though I could be wrong.

Acajack - I'd say the water gets comfortably into the low 20s every summer. Maybe 25 in a warm August? Not actually sure of exact numbers, but as someone else said - warmer than the Atlantic, but colder than the Gulf. Hope that gives you an idea. It's certainly warm enough by late summer that you can basically spend much of the day in the water without getting a chill.

I bet Nicko has figures on this. He seems to be able to find historic water temps for everything easily.
