Hi all, I wonder if any of you local to the area can explain why my sandals have a very "earthy" smell after I paddled Mission Bay a couple weeks ago. I landed once on either side of Fiesta Island (avoided the Least Tern area) and one time on the beach at the far northwest corner near the park. I didn't get too mucky, but of course some. It was low tide at the time. I'm currently on my second Chlorox soak, upping the concentration this time. Any tips on ridding them of the smell? I've had them on in various swamps and mangroves in SW Florida as well as a major Red Tide event, with no similar effects. Odd.
