Fishable, but . . . !


It was a simply gorgeous afternoon on Indialantic's beach. After so many cruddy days in October, today was a beautiful exception. The wind was calm and the ocean clean as the picture hopefully shows. Unlike many days this month, you did not need to trudge through a lot of seaweed to walk. Those who ventured to the beach today certainly had something to enjoy.

There were several men fishing. Although the water was clean, there was a bit too much seaweed in the water to make conditions good. One man I talked to had hooked a lady fish and whiting on the same line, but the line became fouled in seaweed as he attempted to reel in the fish. He ended up quitting because it just wasn't worth it with seaweed in the water. Perhaps tomorrow will bring better conditions.
