Water Fog Distance

I'm wondering if it's possible to have a visible fog effect for under water, to simulate the way we can't see as far under water than in air. This depends a great deal on the clarity of the water and so on, of course. Now, there is the "volumetric fog" and that's fine for the large main waterblock (ocean) but I also have two lakes and there is no "bounded" volumetric fog box.
Does anyone now a way to simulate this visual effect?

What about using a fog layer, and using a trigger a little ways away from the lake (along hte shore) to activate / deactivate the fog layer?

Are there any variables set when you are underwater by the engine? If so you could use that to change the $pref fog values, which would make it foggy under water and then use it to go back when you're not underwater.What about using a fog layer, and using a trigger a little ways away from the lake (along hte shore) to activate / deactivate the fog layer?

@Billy what do you mean by "it works for distance?" Does it make things harder to see if they are farther away?
