personally I wouldn't yak out in any of the main passes, it can be dangerous down there, (would be fine in marsh) the campground is give or take 10 miles downriver from the launch


How far is the marsh from the campgrounds? We may bring a big boat if it's too far for yaks.

You're going to need a big boat regardless to get down to the campground with your yaks loaded in that, there is no way you can yak down there, the current in that river is pretty damn strong (if you fall in the river with waders on you're most likely going to die)...there is marsh to the south and west of the campgrounds (right behind it), i would think it could be done in a yak but it would be a pretty good paddle to the really good areas, would use the big boat to get to the pass, anchor then paddle in

That current gets stiff in those cuts when the tide is going out, please keep that in mind.

few other things...don't put your waders on until you're about to get out the boat to go to the blind and wear a life jacket...and watch for barges and ships traveling the intracoastal which crosses the main river especially in the dark and on foggy mornings...people have died down there
