This should make it across. I dare you to just try it and let us know if it works and how long it lasts :)

You could just run a bunch of bare 250um with some slightly modified sinkers on it. Space out the runs so too many lines didn't get hit at one time. Hook all the lines to trill switches at each end and then add a few new lines after too many of them went down. The hard part would be the landing points... When people pulled it up with a lure ore something, they would just think it was old fishing line.

Yes, I am joking, but given some land on either side of the lake, I'd do it for giggles just to see if it worked and how long it lasted.

I am working on getting a link over a lake that is 12 miles wide. The lake is only 8 feet deep (Utah Lake in Utah County Utah). I don't really have the means to run Fiber at the bottom of this lake, but it made me curious how someone would go about it? What kind of cable would be required, how would it be permitted, is this a common practice, etc? I just wanted to get people's thoughts on it.

Thank you,
