Good posting:) We just moved
Good posting:) We just moved back to the Gulf Coast and do not ever recall PMoW here. But admittedly we weren't into identifying jellies 20 years ago. We just moved here from West Palm Beach area where they were plentiful. Based on your experience Is it new to see them here or have they always been around?
BTW - My husband saw tons on Sunday, December 14, 2015 in the water and alive at Pensacola pier where he was surfing. But he didn't see them when he surfed on Monday. He did however noticed the rotten smell of fish death due to the most recent red tide.
Thanks!
