What's up (or down) with the Water temp?

Must be some upwelling or other to cause such a drastic spike in water temperature this time of year!
From 84 to 74!!!

Wow! I not know nothin' about dis.

Thanks noticing the water temp. thought i was imagining the cold water thursday night into friday morning.I hit the beach thursday night for some fleas(only caught a few very small ones) and the water felt a little chilly.Probably why we didn't see any fish friday morning.

I would say upwelling...it hit the beacharound veterans road area Thursday...say goodby to some of the baitfish!

Interesting. On Thursday we started catching whiting for the first time and that was ALL we caught for the next 24 hours. Hadn't caught a single one in the 5 days of fishing previous to that. And the water was noticeably colder on Thursday. We were at mile marker 7 on FM road (near the old governor's mansion).
