re: OB paddlers: When is west cove marsh (Big Lake) open?

Taking about main canal on right just past where you put in


If you're targeting reds you can turn right at the second canal when leaving the launch and head into the marsh. It'll be a bit before the canal turns to marsh but it's a huge area once you're into it. A ton of flats where you can see tails sticking out the water. I've also seen people fish the canal for flounder sucessfully. Through that marsh you can actually cut through and get to Old Camp canal but I've never done so myself.
