And here I thought those were supposed to be on top of the water

I was going to say the same thing. He sure ain't walkin' on any water.

We even saw Jesus' feet, and that only happens a time or two a year.

It's miracle!!!

But he wasn't walking on water.

When we fished on Wednesday the red tide was around in a few spots. Today in Ixtapa it is visible everywhere. Good time not to eat a host of items from the ocean.

Algae blooms aren't necessarily red tide. I've seen no symptoms of red tide. Just a minor brownish algae bloom. The photo I posted yesterday taken from the pier shows blue water in the bay though it was brownish in other places. Give it a few more days to see if a red tide actually forms. When you see dead fish on the beach then it's probably a red tide.

LISTEN It is the worst I have seen in years. PS, does not mean fish need or have to die. YOU can have an oyster and barracuda buffet. I will pass.

Then you ain't seen nothing. The depletion of oxygen and release of toxins by decaying algae is what I consider red tide, also called a Harmful Algal Bloom (HAB). Brown water is just an algae bloom, often from water upwelling from the depths. But some folks want to call it a red tide even though it hasn't progressed that far. I'm just trying to clarify. But you can call it whatever you want. The distinction isn't as important as are the effects once it has gone toxic.
