June grass???

June grass all summer long?

So despite the name, is June grass here all summer? This will be the third year we stay in Seaside. The first year we went the last week of May & there was not any June grass & it was great! Last year during the week of July 4th, it was really thick! We will be there July 11-18th & wondering if it should be clearing out by then?

Incidentally, we LOVE SoWal! We have gone from Destin to Shell Island visiting all the beaches & LOVE them!

A good storm and heavy surf ought to help for awhile. I know I'm missing surf fishing cuz I'm not about to spend my whole morning cutting june grass off my line. It doesn't just pull off like regular weeds.
It's kinda like stringy snot. :funn:

It's fun to swim with the kids and call it sea snot. Like WaterCourseWay says, it's good for the skin. It doesn't hurt and it washes off in the shower.

:funn::rofl:
Sea Snot!!! Hilarious! Can't wait to say that to the girls when they come back to their beach chairs from the surf. "Hey, (insert daughter's name here) you have sea snot on your back side!"

This thread has gotten very snotty!

I've been at Blue Mtn Beach and it seems like the June grass has been improving, its more like a delicate "snot puree".

Its not gross to swim through it, the water is quite clear, but I can see how it might be annoying if you're fishing and it loads up on your hook.
