BOKEELIA, Florida – Calusa Waterkeeper posted pictures on Facebook showing a row of dead fish from the red tide.
Ralph Arwood’s pictures show the white lines of dead fish in the water. The problem runs from Sanibel to Sarasota. Calusa Waterkeeper says there is no end in sight.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission’s Red Tide map shows different levels of red tidal cells.
Most of the coast off Cape Coral and Naples is gray, so there is no red tide worth mentioning.
Areas like Boca Grande Pass and Little Gasparilla Island are in the red. They have a high concentration of red tide.
The Florida Department of Health in Lee County is warning people of possible respiratory symptoms near Gasparilla Island.
