Fished with a friend from 5:30-7:20.
Only caught 10 before heading in.
Then, as the sun was setting, I was gifted with a spun prop from a thick mat of hyacinth that blocked the main canal.
I had plowed through 3 mats of crap, but my prop was no match for #4.
We spent the next 1 hr 40 min going 3mph in the dark from the canal and west on the Intracoastal to the Gibbstown launch.
So, beware of those mats! That stuff is taking over out there. My prediction is that unless something is done to remove the hyacinth, the main entrance canal from the Intracoastal will be unusable in a couple of years, if not sooner.

Sorry to hear that. It was out there Monday and Tuesday. On Tuesday we were in the 45 canal and I really wanted to get to the canals back around Cocaine Lake; made it to the cut going into the canal but it was blocked with one of the thickest mats of hyacinth and flotaunts I've seen in a long time. You are correct...I hope the powers that be do something to control all that stuff. Heading that way in about 30 min. but I think that I'll stick to the front today.
