SE Florida, end of January - any pointers on Lemon Shark aggregation? Jupiter? WPB? Which op with?
I dove Jupiter today(Dec26) with JDC's boat. I saw 2 sets of female lemons laying with a male sitting just behind them on the main ledge reef up on top. Then on the Scarface reef I saw another really big male lemon laying next to a female. I hugged the sand and got within about 12 feet of the Scarface pair.SE Florida, end of January - any pointers on Lemon Shark aggregation? Jupiter? WPB? Which op with?
I've had some fantastic dives at Lemon Drop with JDC. The dives on the JDC calendar labeled as Lemon Shark Dive, start at Lemon DropI dove Jupiter today(Dec26) with JDC's boat.

The 2 dives I was at were NOT the most popular sites for lemons to hang out at and the peak is the about 4th weekend of January. So if they are already showing up at the non-popular spots then that means January should be a banner year turn out for lemons in Jupiter. Just my opinion but the 2 best Jupiter spots to see lemons are at the sites named "Capt Kirles" and the " MG111". The on line calendars will list which boats are exclusively going to seek out the lemons, but also call the shop and they will set up a lemon dive for you because so many others will join to see them too.
