There were hundreds in about 15-20 ft of water out of St. Marks this weekend. My wife was stung before we noticed how many there were. :smt013 :hammer:

JELLYFISH - 400

HUMANS - 0

I took a group of 40 students snorkeling at St. Andrews in PC. As soon as the group hit the water and started swimming they got hit. They were small jellyfish, so no harm was done. The funny thing was watching them all as they popped up out of the water, yelled and then went back in. Have you ever seen one of the gopher games in the arcade? :lol:

New Smyrna was the top shark bite beach for the last 3 or 4 years running. Guess they have a new pest now :smt011
