Lebeau, maybe a canoe to get out there (maybe have to wait for a good rain for higher water?).

But yeah - set up the ambush spots. Or even help create them by cutting some places back a bit to give them an easier ramp to use to ford the banks.

I love swamps and cypress! The color of antlers when they are all rubbed in with cypress. Last year we ran into a guy who wacked a big old boy that had cypress shavings ALL OVER his rack.

Go get em killer!
