It may see a more direct influx of saltwater but it probably sees more influx of freshwater too. I used to fish Sabine quite a bit before Rita and my father-n-law used to guide in it. My personal opinion (no scientific backing like the rest of my thoughts) is that Sabine gets "turned over" more often than Calcasieau does. There are times when it's fresh and times when it's salty. More like the way Mother nature intended.
