I thought I hit "POST"

Good morning! As the remnants of Bonnie scoot through Louisiana, we are left with the hit or miss thundershowers coming off of what is left of the bottom right quadrant. The surf is running loud and high, but we are still at yellow flag.

BP crews will be up and running again in the morning to tackle any thing that washes in or is uncovered from any previous landfalls.

The water, while churned, is clear. We are still battling the June Grass and the Sargasso weed.

Temps today will be a little lower than we have been seeing, but the humidity will be higher, which leaves us with Heat Indexes still over 100'. Take it slowly today.

The churing water brought the bait fish out of hiding. Last night we pulled in over 30 in less than an hour.

Have fun and be safe.
