If I am not mistaken, this is precisely the task of the ansotropic filtering to prevent this kind of textures "pixelization".
Try increasing the AF on your card.
Also, don't forget that if you are running an NVidia, but set your driver quality on "Performance" or "Best Performance", the AF and AA will not perform as good as they should.

You might also want to play with your draw distance setting. The close in water looks OK but it gets fuzzed further out. Of course setting it to draw further out will mean more hit on the system resources.

Fiddle with Adaptive Anti-Aliasing, AF, and AA. Keep the AF ingame at Anisotropic though.
