    the channel that runs back to the river is what my friends and I growing up here refered to as "blackwell ditch". I've heard blackwell run as well.
    I remeber my buddy telling me he saw the biggest gator he had ever seen near where the ditch opens up into the swamp. he swore it was every bit of 14 foot and i laughed and laughed...guess he didnt appreciate it so not long after he got a pic and even in the damn pic you could tell it was on another level. hell the head on the thing looked 3 or 4 feet long.

    I've caught some absolute hammer Largemouth in the swamp. I caught a double digit in there last spring. I haven't fished it yet this year but will soon.

    You putting a kayak in? I had mine yesterday and almost said screw it and put it in the swamp but the wind was up so I decided to fish the ditch from the bank. If any of you all ever plan a trip out there let me know. id gladly tag along.

    You sound like me. Lol. I’m wanting to fish limestone. I have this time of year but just can’t relax and enjoy myself as much.

    I'd guess the male Gator is between 10 and 12 foot. Big Gator and super thick, but not 14, LOL. They look bigger from a kayak or small boat!
