About This Dive Spot
Richland Howard Amon Park offers a drift dive experience in the heart of Richland. Divers begin by swimming straight out from the shore until they encounter a current. The dive proceeds downstream to a 2-inch steel cable, which serves as a guide for the return journey towards the shore. At approximately 15 feet, divers can find a back eddy that allows them to be carried back to the starting point. The site is home to various fish species, including large and small bass, walleye, and carp. Crawfish are abundant, and divers may attract bass by locating them during the dive.
