lemond33,
1st choice(If Possible)hunt from well placed stand on "edges".Stay away from ditches,fingers if possible.If not to wide deer will easily jump these small ditches.

If you walk out in these areas,BE CAREFUL.Some of the sink holes will swallow you up waste deep.Wear at least knee high boots.

You gotta get out to these areas WAY before season,scout for rubs,tracks,adjacent food supply,droppings,wind,glass the area at dawn dusk,etc.Look for high ground somewhere.They Are Out There!!

I have taken deer that came out of marsh with belly and legs solid black with marsh mud.When wise old Does and Bucks get pressured they will hunker down in these thick marshes(Heavier the Better).Many will lay in marsh grass and catch the afternoon Fall sun.

Some littlerly bury themselves in scrub brush,ditches,frag,islands.At dusk or after(Usually Hunter is Long Gone)up they POP outa nowhere!!

P.S. These areas are great if your huntin State Land.Not many guys will tread far into marsh.(sloppy,stinky,bugs,hard work).

Be Careful,Good Luck,Come Back with Good Marsh Buck Story. AL
