[100days-a-year]

Stopped on my way in from a trip to get some video of 1 lionfish and 2 the wreck.Sets in 120' NE of JAX.It was a quick dive as it was the last day of 5 and we were beat.

When is it:
warmest
calmest
up there?
And how " Sharkey" is it up on those wrecks?
Would we have decent viz on the wrecks in the less than 100' range?
I would like to assemble a group to make a run up there, but can only assume that August and September is the best diving conditions.
My gang is Lion Fish specialists.

You interested in doing a trip up there Sport?

August likely to have a thermocline,Sept may but it is prime hurricane season as well.Best bet is May and June or Oct and Nov.
lionfish are mostly 80' or deeper.The wrecks are your best bet.Temps normally 70's to lo 80's.Vis is variable but reports come in a lot so charters and rec guys know what's up.20' vis on a bad day 50' to 80' often but I am further offshore normally and see 100' all the time.

Not very sharky til later in the fall when sand tigers migrate,some wreck have them year round.I'll be diving commercially starting May 1 and full speed for a few months.
