At the inside areas, the water was definitely not the same good clarity, as 2 weeks ago, but there were some fairly clear areas. The red tide was sporadic all the way to the NW corner, but as we got to that spot, there were areas where the red tide didn't exist at all.

We'll post our fishing report later today. We managed some bottom fish. The "right" kind might have been quite affected by the water temperature, as well as the red tide, as it seems colder than normal for this time of the year as it did on Aug 23rd, our 1st trip of the year.
