S. Brohard w/ dkramer. Incoming tide. Winds ENE less than 5 mph.
Water 86 degrees. Viz 8-10 ft. Max depth 19 fsw. No red tide. Saw more fish this week than last, even fry. Water clearer, still lots of algae and silt in shallows. Only large find was a 3 in. Horse tooth. Had a foot long remora following us, but we were tricky, and passed it off to @sharkwatcher when he passed us.

Aquacat, just a friendly piece of advice on diving Venice: You'll find the viz to be it's best with easterly winds and incoming tides. Onshore winds and outgoing tides tend to degrade the visibility and the closer to the Jetties, the worse it gets!
