Hurrican Ike Screws Up the Gulf
Fishing this weekend was pretty sad. The tides were running 2-4 feet above normal, due to Hurricane Ike. The water was terrible, with less than a foot of visibility. And… the fish weren’t biting. I did manage a few scattered grouper and 1 snapper, but that was about it.
Between the big tides, the full moon, and lots of boat traffic, Merry Pier has sustained some minor damage in the last week. Hopefully, the city will be quick with repairs.
