Default Hodges Gardens Fishing?

Have any of you ever fished at Hodges Gardens? My ol lady booked a cabin for next weekend and I have never been there but have heard the fishing can be good. Anyone have any tips or advice for me. Has anyone stayed in the cabins? How are they?

It is AWESOME. You have to wake up at like 6:00am and go rent a boat. Call me after 4:30pm and i'll tell you all about it. We went last year. I've fished there dozens of times. Big fish there.
