I've heard January is the time to see lemon sharks off Jupiter, FL. Anyone know if the sharks are around now, and if so, is there a dive op in that area that goes out to see them? Thanks for any info.

Not sure really, I love to see sharks diving but have been on only one dive where the crew put a bait bucket under the boat. I would prefer seeing sharks without baiting/feeding, but I have no strong opinion at this point.
Narcosis and Ocean Quest have been pretty good at finding lemons without bait. I did two Narcosis dives last year that were pretty lemony and Ocean Quest had a number of good encounters. Not disputing that Emerald and Calypso are the best tickets to the show; just putting up some alternate options.
Michael, when were you striking out on the lemons? I was trying to find them from the Narcosis in the winter of 2013 and kept striking out. I got the impression that in general 2013 was a bad year for them, and in 2014 they had a big party going.
