Went out off Jacksonville on Monday. The sea conditions were a little bumpy going out, but it did settle down through the day. Diving conditions were pretty decent. We were diving in 80' sw, had 20-30' vis with water temp 82. These were some better conditions than we have had in the past few weeks, so it looks like things have cleared up some. We dove some wrecks, culverts and some natural ledges. We shot some grouper, flounder, mangrove snapper and a 60 lb cobia.

What charters are there in JAX that are good. I have family near there, and it would add another reason to visit if I knew there was diving 20 minutes north.
