If you live in NE Florida donâ€™t buy another oz. of salt. Go to the UF Whitney lab at Marine Land and collect all the salt water you want. The lab studies olfactory scenes of lobster. They pump their water from an off shore well point that is about 150 feet below the ocean floor, so the water is grade A. You just pull up to the water tower at the lab and fill your buckets till your hearts content. I even asked one of the lab guys and he said they really donâ€™t care. Itâ€™s a great trip down A1a and the lab a cool salt water pond used to pretreat the water before its released back into the intercostal water way.
