Pontoon bridge before Hebert's?
 

It seems that everytime I head down to Herbert's on Hwy 384, I catch the barges heading through the intercoastal canal. I've gotten caught going there and back on a few ocassions. How about you'll?:D

:pissed::pissed::pissed::pissed::pissed::pissed:

Almost every time. Sat right there for 1hr10min one afternoon:pissed:

Damb Cap'n D!!

Yeah them bridges will piss you off when you catch them headin to work

Same here.....majority of the time I catch it either coming or going. Not many times have it missed it completely.

+1

I have been lucky......I have only been stopped about 1/3 of the time I have gone that way in the last 6 months.

If you are there at 6 AM shift change......you might get to see the Chick that works up there in the booth......not bad.

I was warned by my boat-shed landlady on the westside about that bridge. She must be right...I've never been stopped at the Ellender Bridge.

It could be worse. The barge hits the bridge and knocks it out of commission!

:rotfl:

i'm guessing you've fished v. bay lol

I quit launching at heberts cause everytime on my way out I get stuck right there for 20 or 30 min. First time I ever launched at calcasieu point pontoon was up on my way there so I turned around!

i have always caught it green except once, but i use the north launch a lot
