Speaking of WPB area, that also is my very favorite place to dive. It's been a couple of years but I've been there when the Lemon Sharks come through (in January, I believe) and it's awesome!
I'll also be down that way later on this month and plans are made to do the Blue Heron Bridge, if anyone's up for it, we could get a group together.

BTW- 50
north of Green Bay WI
dove Cozumel, WPB, Key Largo, Gulf of Mex. (various spots), Turks & Caicos, Bonaire, Bonne Terre Mine, Honduras, Great Lakes and farm ponds.

Remember that the dives at BHB are driven by slack high tide, so make sure your plans take the tidal info into account. I for one would be happy to join you when you're here.
