You would think that East and West pass would have some salt on the bottom. West Cove is shallow but it gets a good tide flush. What do you think?
As already stated salt water is heavier than fresh....most of the fresh run off will be concentrated in the heaviest flow areas and areas closest to the flow areas....you can bet deeper areas that don't have the heavier currents will still be diluted but will be salty enough to hold fish....E bank,S bank and areas in the cove should be still holding....the closer you get to the GOM the better....IMO
