I have not been there in several years. Is 3-mile cut sanded in? Well maybe it's been more than several years, because the last time I went the cut was open to the gulf.

If Matagorda Island is still there after this weekend.....
I don't know about three mile cut but Greens and Cottons are still as good as they have been in the past. But beware that there is ALOT of boat traffic down there now.

Thanks for the input. I was planning a surf fishing trip this weekend. I think I might need some longer tent stakes!

Forget going anywhere around Matagorda to Port Lavaca this weekend. My husband is down there right now boarding up our
place at the mouth of the Colorado River. The Matagorda sheriff's
department told him that NO ONE would be allowed in after noon
today, and that everyone had to be out by 6:00p.m. this evening.
The water levels are already rising down there, and fast!

Yeah, as of this morning...Looks like IKE will be hitting land between Port Lavaca and Galveston...

Prayers sent to all those, down by the coast...And the Rescue Teams...
It looks to be a bad one....

My husband just called and the water is now over the pier down
there. This is a big storm and regardless of where it makes landfall, most of the TX coast is going to be under water! I predict that IKE will make landfall between East Bay and Freeport.

The water was over my pier which is up the river (just past River Bend Tavern) and over the pier down at the jetties. I can ONLY IMAGINE was it looks like today! They closed the draw bridge last nite.

Here in Panama City, Florida the water level at the marina's is level with the seawall's and there is no beach the waves are very close to breaking against the condos that are beachfront, if it looks like that here-Texas get out of the way and God Bless!!!!!!!
