Nitrojunki and I called it (OK, I called it) around 5:15 as there were too many white caps the the current appeared to be rippping from the north. Shall try again next week.

sure, we can try again.

A few of us did head out and it wasn't too bad tonight. you and I have certainly been out in worse. We had a heck of a time finding the darn jax though. We walked past the one on the beach 3 times!

What he really means is we walked past the one UNDER the beach. It's almost completely buried with only a few inches left above the sand. It wasn't easy to spot - especially in the dark.

Despite our initial challange, it was a nice dive and the conditions really weren't bad by the time we hit the water. The current was running pretty good from North to South which made for a quick drift back toward the pier after we reached the end of the jax.

I noticed when I got home from the dog park at 7:15 or so the wind had died. I thought of ya'll... it was so much more windy earlier.

Well, Im back from Key West. Rain Rain Rain. Took a boat dive to a reef with Subtropic and the roller coaster ride out there was more a thrill than the dive. Cloudy, vis down to 30' I will be in the Miami area for the rest of the week Jenny if you still want to try the beach. Not sure what the weather has to say about it however. Let me know.
