SkinnyH2O Posted September 16, 2017 Report Share Posted September 16, 2017 Anyone know how much damage they sustained? I know its early but checking to see availability to use their ramp, if its still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Check the NOAA aerial photo of the Keys, post-impact.. It may be a while before phones and cell service is restored. Waters will be full of lumber. Be careful ! Mod-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Dave Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I ran over from Key Largo (Caribbean Club) to Flamingo on Sunday. Docks have been repaired and the "ramp" is the same--sand and broken concrete pad. Water got progressively worse as we ran west to Flamingo. It was the color of chocolate milk in most areas, with large mats of dead grass everywhere. Many channel markers are down, leaning or missing altogether. Some were floating just below the surface of the water. I suspect that some of the dead grass mats had accumulated around debris of some nature. Be careful! After fishing most of the day, we ran back and the water was dark brown near Dump Key, improving as we ran east. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He told me the bay has many new islands, the water was pure chocolate and murky.... Out with the guide all day with live bait - two sharks and a few snappers.... Most likely gonna be 2-4 months till it gets back to normal......Mother Nature still has a large toilet bowl she needs to Flush dc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
