So my uncle told me when I was a kid that when there is a red tide the fishing isn't as good and not to eat the fish because of toxins in fish during the red tide. How much of it is true?
I venture out and aside from the glow in the waves I seemed to be getting bites still. Didn't actually catch anything but at least felt the tugs.

In a lot of warm water states it's a big issue, but mostly from oxygen depletion. I usually have always avoided the heaviest red tides, so don't know even if I would get fish to bite in them. I'll do some poking around and see if any of my old time buddies have ever gotten sick or not from it.
