Hell, I've used gumbo mud to fill the drain plug on my "bateau (sp?)" to get to the duck blind when I dropped it in da bayou.

Not sure if I'd use that dirt to make a roux...

Most people just call it clay…

If you ever walk through gumbo mud, your boots start accumulating it until you get tired of carrying all the extra weight and bulk and stop to scrape it off.

Gumbo costs O&G companies a lot of money

I farm a few hundred acres of gumbo. It’s very much a love hate relationship. Mostly hate. Can grow the hell out of soybeans, rice, and not much else.
Can make pretty good corn every now and then, and good cotton about once a decade.

This man is preaching!
Makes pretty good Hay too. Most of our Gumbo soil is in pasture and Catfish ponds.

But it makes foundation repair companies a lot of money.
I love it because it is so easy to dig, but I hate it because it is so hard to get off the shovel once you have a scoop. It is even worse with post-hole diggers. You know it ain't a baws first rodeo when he has a 5 gallon bucket of water next to the hole he is digging.

Worst times of my youth….Madison Parish gumbo balling up the baskets while trying to knock down rows to plant cotton. Me out there with a hammer and screw driver with no help around.

This is a thankless job. You’re either digging the basket out or getting yelled at for being too far out in front of the planters and it’s drying out.

That crap will stick to your tires and just cake up and fill your fender wells.
