Water is so fresh...Saw some massive alligator gars (5-7 feet) and some big ole 10plus foot gators in that marsh.
We threw everything...just 2. Alot of shad activity....
Any thoughts on getting through those areas (canals through the smaller lakes etc) , let me know. Dont want to get stuck again.

What type of boat are you running? I've been fishing that area since I was small. Feerman does get tricky on a low or falling tide. Idk if you noticed the poles in the middle of Lake Feerman that is the so called channel if you stay around those poles you should be ok to cut accrose the lake to get to south lake. You shouldn't have much problems on a high tide just may kick up a lil mud when heading the the banks to fish. Hog bayou is the same deal there are some PVC poles that make the outline of the reef you have to swing wide going into the canal to get to the weir you want those poles on your right side going into the canal. Don't want to run to close to the bank for sure when getting too close to Hog Bayou it shallows up quick espically on a low tide or a falling tide.
