Wish I checked before I went, missed it by twenty or so feet today! Got skunked today but was a great day to be on the water and shake the rust off. Surface temp in mid thirty’s. Marked fish in the otter creek dimond island area.

It's most likely the green buoy (51) indicated on this map (red arrow) marking the shallow edge of the Otter Creek mouth.

Can anyone confirm?
