Shark River Inlet 48 degrees..and 21ft near rocks!
Posted by Angela on 12/21/2012, 10:53 am
Guess the rain dropped the water temp which I heard last weekend was 50.. The biggest surprise was the water depth. The deepest I have seen the inlet is 25 ft and that is near the bridge or under bridge near middle on avon side.
On the A street side where I was yesterday, the depth was normally 17 max, yesterday it was 21ft. It was not the highest tide cycle. Vis was 5-7 which I found better than I expected since Tuesday's downpour.
Very little life other than hidden crabs and one loan fluke.
Bottom has changed significantly. I didnt find any post storm goodies, just lots of weights.. Its my go-to place when I can't get off shore. Before the storm I could have dived that blind, not anymore.
As always it felt GREAT to get in water, no matter how much I was shivering!!! (no dry suit)..
HAVE A WONDERFUL CHRISTMAS AND HEALTHY NEW YEAR. ...
