I've been to most of them David including this one....just haven't had a free afternoon to get down there this season..........This is one of those places that I can catch a cooler full of big bluegill and throw out chicken on a string and fill another cooler with big blue crabs....Brackish water is special!

I wasnt aware there were any creeks you hadn't yet fished.

Ive had cottonmouths climb in the boat, using the anchor rope as a "stair." According to the experts snakes wont bite you in the water because they have nothing to push against for the strike. Im not sure I'd like to test that theory from a tube.

Often times a cottonmouth is just as eager to get away from you as you are from him.........But in my opinion, they are unpredictable Dilly.....They'll fill themselves with air and swim right up on the surface and won't necessarily spook easy......The only snake out there that has tried to get in my boat.....I'm not afraid of them, I just don't like them......A few kayakers in my region but nobody float tubes......

Jeff,  How bad are the the cotton mouths?  My dad was telling me about them.  They do not go under water do they?  He lives in Northern Georgia, and I was thinking about float tubing down their sometime.  That is why I am asking.  He said they were very poisonous.

Big Coppernose live here! You find them fishing the nooks and crannies along the flooded trees.......
