Yeah, we made it. I bought a pushpole yesterday but still wound up barefoot in the mud pulling! We pushed and pulled for about 250-300 yds or so before WLF shows up on an airboat! What a welcome sight since it had taken about 2 hours or so to make it as far as we had. With another 200 or so to go, I'd be likely still out there. WLF guy was a real standup guy and the nicest agent I've ever met!
I asked him if it was always this bad and he said that after several days of strong north winds, yes. Needless to say, Dularge isn't currently my friend and I won't be going back if the words north wind have been mentioned in the past week!!!!!
We still tried to fish after that for a short while. I wasn't much in the mood and the lack of bite and excessive wind didn't help. Well, sometimes you go catchin' sometimes you go fishin'. Today was the latter with a hefty side of mud riding!
Gotta hand it to the ol 40 merc! It needs a new impeller but it took a beating today and grinned a muddy smile!
There were two more boats stuck way further up than us, say 150 yds or so. They had NO water under them at all and one was a pretty big center console! I hope they got out finally!
It's all good in the hood!
