Red tide?
I will be vacationing in the Sarasota, FL area soon. I have read
somewhere that the extended red tide bloom in the area has killed off all the fish. Does anyone know if this is true? Also, if there are still a few snook swimming around, are they edible after being subjected to red tide?

Today's news on Sarasota TV said that the recent east wind has blown the red
tide offshore. I was thinking about running down to the beach tomorrow. Haven't bothered going for over a month. Snook are probably scarce because a lot of the bait fish have died off. If you are lucky enough to land a keeper you can eat it. The red tide kills fish by attacking their gills. The flesh is not harmed by the red tide.

I fished south Sarasota Bay last week. No red tide where we fished. We
caught undersize snook and large jacks. Lots of mullet and jacks around. Did have red tide in north Sarasota Bay so we did not fish. The Snook Research Fishing Tournament is Oct 14 & 15. I plan to fish that. Lee "Charlie Bress" wrote in message ... Today's news on Sarasota TV said that the recent east wind has blown the red tide offshore.
