Now I know that hydrodynamics are a bit more complicated, with some of the downstream flow ending up in marshes, bayous and yards and houses and also saltier water is heavier and may persist in deeper areas, but for the near future discussions about Sabine Lake would likely be a better fit in the "Freshwater Discussion" area...I wonder if there are gong to be any specks in Sabine at all for a while with that much fresh water.
We face this year after year in Vermilion Bay. Welcome to our hell.

Troutsupports advice is spot on.
