High tides for teal opener

Was looking forward the Teal opener Saturday down in lower St Bernard/Plaquemines. But as a general rule the Teal bug out on high tides. Hopefully a few stick it out since the tides should subside a good bit by Saturday hopefully.

If you can be Mobil get up in the flooded grass and skip the small ponds and bay edges.

Bingo. They love all the seeds and invertebrates that pop up when the marsh floods.

Agreed, friend and I did very well in Biloxi marsh doing this.

Teal in Texas are almost non-existent in the marsh till they got beat up in the rice. It usually takes about an hour and then it is on.

Agree. They’ll be in the rice until ran out. Problem is…no rice available in SELA.

As said, it’s not that they leave high tide. They are chasing the tide. They are chasing where they can/ prefer to feed. Just like fish, generally they are feeding where the tide brings/ exposes the food. They go into the marsh because they prefer to be in water as opposed to feeding on land, and like to feed in the shallows generally speaking.
Which is kinda funny, because most of the country there’s very little danger in the shallow water. Not so much along the gulf coast with gators.
