SAINT PETERSBURG, Fla. â Aubrey Moorefield has lived on Smacks Bayou in St. Pete for most of his life. There were so many fish, manatees, dolphins, said Moorefield.
He says it used to be a beautiful little estuary until Red Tide came in a few weeks ago and killed nearly everything. He says to add insult to injury, there was recently sewage leaking into the water near his home.
