    Green slime

    Could someone tell me if the green slime still thick enough to effect surf fishing?
    Thanks

    A fellow told me it was clear at Ft. Morgan Park and also at Mobile St. east of Ft. Morgan. Said he'd caught reds, pomps, and whiting.

    Its algae, natural occurrence. Food for critters that get eaten by the critter we like to catch and eat.

    Fished from surf between peir and sea & suds this morning. Slime was horrible. Left after 40 min. Maybe when tide comes in it will improve?

    Thanks all. I stayed home and mowed the lawn. Now I'm ready when it moves out.

    A great aerial view (by Micdesigns) showing the extent and range of the current algae bloom in the surf zone at the Gulf State Park Pavilion.
