We got a PINS trip planned for the weekend of the 28th. Yes I know it is opening weekend of bow season but we are going anyway. Any of y'all coastal folks keeping up with the red tide thing? Looks like a small fish kill near Packery Channel and no one is sure if it will blow up or not. I have heard red tide is rather uncommon for that part of the Gulf. Just hoping this doesn't screw up our trip.

We were offshore in 20-30’ of water 15 miles south of the pavement and ran 10 miles north of the port a jetties and didn’t see or notice any red tide today. Saw tons of pelicans diving on bait on the north side just past the 3rd bar. Lots of sharks on the north end, none on the south end.
