As busy as it was on a Monday, I cant imagine how crowded it would be on a weekend. I didn't make it to the bridge, because there were too many boats at a certain point... didn't want to play bumper boats

Nice scenic channel flowing from Eagle Mountain to Lake Worth. I fished here recently and didn't catch "NOTHANGGGG"  My Lowrance Elite 5 Chirp picked up an amazing HDI image of a gator under 6 feet of water along the Blue Hole. I marked most fish in the center channel leading northward to 10 mile bridge. I tried minnows, rooster tails, road runners, rat-l-trap and even me praying....but no fish  It's too early for sandies but, give it 1-2 weeks, you'll be "dancing on the ceiling" like Lionel Ritchie rebirth 2.O

That was me....I got even more spooked after witnessing the little fella on my fish finder. You must have been the kayaker with Corps of Engineers. Keep the lines tight and stay safe

I have had a couple of close encounter with some of the 8 to 10 foot alligators but I try to keep a safe distance and be sure if I am in a group of kayak that I have the fastest kayak in case the alligator is looking for an old man to have for lunch. LOL. You don't have to out-paddle the alligator...you just have to out-paddle the other kayaker.

One you will see later the the other will see you in a while.
