I’m mostly discouraged about the land loss we are experiencing. What I find odd is that there was a lot more mud/vegetation when I last saw it in early feb picking up decoys. Maybe the salinity from the storm surge didn’t make the most visible difference until vegetation started trying to grow back.
Our ponds have mostly become lakes. Although I’ve seen it this way after hurricane Rita and it did eventually bounce back. But if I recall we had a drought around 2010-2011 and I would think a lot of vegetation was able to take hold again that summer.
Anyhow, will be back at it brushing blinds come late august.
I will also be doing some hunting on the west side of big lake closer to Sabine refuge. We will have an interior brackish pond to hunt along with what I’ll call the “lake side” as its wide open as far as you can see for the most part. There’s also some scattered interior ponds that are freshwater from what I can tell based on the vegetation I see. It looks promising and new places are always exciting.
