While it’s not as high as last year, I know a bunch of people that were put out by high water this year.

I miss hunting the swamp land along the river but there is no way I’d invest in any right now.

River has been significantly silting up below Morganza because of the reduced water flow after they opened it up several years ago which allowed the sediment to falls instead of flowing to the gulf.

I go back and forth on this. I fully admit to trashing river camps on here regularly.... But if you have the money and can stomach the gamble, it might be time to look at getting in one. Historically speaking, flooding is cyclical. There’s no denying that the last decade has been the most extreme in recorded history, but if you got in and the cycle swings to a drier pattern, you could make that money back in a hurry.

But who knows... Maybe we finally are in a situation where this is the new norm.

Just thinking out loud.
