Yes, you can fish Freshwater Bayou itself and the Humble canal up to the pontoon bridge area. As far as the public launch at FWC, it is shallow but you will be fine in a 22ft boat except at extremely low tides after a strong North wind....and even then you may have enough water. I launched our 29ft SeaVee (drafted at least 24") during spring/summers at low tide without issue but I had to keep in the center of the canal and not go more inland than the launch (the canal deadends about 75 yds past the launch anyway). I have had the cooling water intakes on the 29 footer clog with mud a couple of time at very low tides but was able to load her up on the trailer anyway. Keep in mind that you will be launching on the Gulf side of the locks.
