Anybody have any ideas about what it means for fishing?? I read that it won't make the fish inedible - but Im wondering how it will affect fishing?? For example will lure color be less important because the fish are seeing thru the red stuff?? Will they be able to see the lures at all?? Will the bait move out to escape the red tide - or will they consider the algae food and it will attract more bait???
Any thoughts from those of you who've been thru this before.....

Not to drag this topic out but Striped bass love lobsters..........And lobsters are chaulk full-o-RED TIDE!
I know that the R T is only here for a short time but,if "a bass" ate a lobster w/ R T how long would it take for it to filter out of it's system & would some get stored in it's fatty tissue?

Not sure Rob. I know that the RED TIDE is influenced by the North Easterly winds,it happen's every year in Maine & w/ that Nor-Easter we got last week it pushed it right down in our laps.
So I dunno how long it'll stay......Hopefully for the Shellfishermen it won't be here for long.
