Photo of my dry bag. This pack has been on my boat since last winter and it’s still clean and dry. Might need to put a t shirt and shorts for winter 2025 🙄

I have mine in vacuum seal bags all year. The kind made for storing linen in the closet. If it’s cold when your in dry clothes, it’s really going to suck if your wet.

Don’t take this as any guarantee , but your line is fine to run on a normal tide. I’ve run through there on plane a bunch, never had an issue. I believe most of the stumps are back over in the corner where it narrows down .

Ideally a medium heavy rod, but I’m not switching set ups because of the weight,

I just want to add 2 spots where we also ran aground. Both were totally avoidable, we were just slightly off from the channels. Also after @DrillNFill was ungrounded, we followed them for a long way, they continued kicking up mud as they went (similar to a barge in the ICW), easily 75 yards off shore. The river is low, but also super green in a bunch of place. When I come back in my boat I’ll be sure to stay out in the middle and be sure not to cut corners entering bayous.
Edit: the spot I’m posting is essentially the last cut in southwest pass

Thanks for the ideas everyone

I did mine on friday. Something tells me they will sell us down the road no matter what, but im willing to send emails. Really should make the time to show up in person.

Just my opinion, but the wait and see theory seems season dependent. Waiting and seeing July will result in nothing more than a sunburn lol.
But fall/winter/early spring, you know the fishing should be where you are, then yeah it’s worth a wait.

Agreed.

I bought a new one from Columbia last spring. If you go to the Columbia outlet stores (like in Gulfport or Gonzalez might have one too), they will do deep discounts on snow gear (or they did during spring. I like the snow gear for the brighter colors vs camo. Think I got a $400 jacket for like $100. Like 50+% off the tag prices. Idk what their stock is like during the fall/winter, one of things you might have to make a trip to see, but probably worth the bargain for a fishing jacket

That’s where we started our drift at the end of BC but it was all dirty on the day we went

I was just looking at your post.

Yeah I saw they were cast netting them a few weeks back on the lake front. Just haven’t been seeing them being chased by fish like years prior. But I’m probably getting ahead of myself

A bunch of the areas I fished recently have eel grass.
