I have fished Big Lake for at least 12 yrs now and this has been the worst year I can recall as far as catches ,for whatever the reason .
I truly believe man should not fool with what nature created. I grew up fishing Black Bayou in the Vinton area . Bass fishing was spectacular until man decided to block off cuts into the area . Along came hurricane rita and filled the marshes with saltwater ,which had no escape due to the blockages man created . Now most of the areas where bass once were are inhabited by redfish .
Im no marine biologist .These are just things I have seen with my own eyes that have occurred in the past twenty or so years in our area.

It can survive for what extended period of time?
