LJ Red Tide Update - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I live about six miles west of the shores and my whole neighborhood’s been stinking when the sea breeze is up. Smells like dead fish and rotten seaweed. Went to the launch today and saw the sign in the first pic. Smell was nasty.

Went up the hill to where the 1% live and got the second pic. There’s actually a little blue water along the beach, but outside of the pier there’s a huge strip of dark red water that goes south right through the kelp all the way past Bird Rock.

Went by the cove as well. There were a bunch of birds going apeshit just inside the reserve at the break between the green and red water. The fish in the kelp must be having a rough time. Low oxygen.

Hope this washes out soon.
