Jellyfish

Does anyone know when the jellyfish are supposed to leave the area? The last few times i've surf fished - i've been stung multiple times.

I just picked up some meat tenderizer to throw in the tackle box.

Are they that bad every summer? I was down in early June and they were everywhere.

The jellyfish have been here forever. When the water gets warm and the wind is right, they are here in vast numbers.

They, along with sharks, are the reason that I fish with the long rod from dry sand. You don't get bitten or stung. C2

Was at Johnson's beach Saturday. Didn't see a single jelly. Nor on the sound side.

Buy some Safe Sea sunscreen/jellyfish sting protective lotion.

My daughter got it bad today at P'cola Beach. I got a little bit. Did the tenderizer thing and lidicane (sp?) but that did nothing. She really got it bad, both legs. Went to the condo, quick Google search on the ol' crackberry and smeared shave gel all over her legs. Lightly scraped it off with a drivers license. Did this 3x'= worked!!! She stopped crying/complaining and we went back to the beach... That is when - I got it from a stray tenticle. Seems that kids and few parents want to catch them and toss them on the beach
