I’ve scouted Harrington, east beach, and Torres causeway as some decent spots to put in to float/fish backwater marsh and rivers. Anyone know of places near Brunswick/Jekyll that are easy to launch from?
That tidal current is my worry. Trying to stay back a little until I get the hang of it.Village creek boat ramp on St. Simons island is the best place I've found to put in my kayak. You have to watch the tides. The Georgia coast has some ripping currents sometimes. I have also put in at the Sidney Lanier bridge ramp and stayed in the back waters close to there. That sound can get rough so I stay close to shore and back in the creeks. I have seen some posts about people putting in at the Jekyll ramp and fishing the backside of Jekyll but I have never personally done it.
That’s a good tip! I was worried about that when the tide was going out.If you put in at village creek try to time it where you can get back out before dead low tide or you’ll have to drag your kayak 100yrds through the mud.
It sucks, took close to a hour to wash all the mud off two kayaks, us, and our gear. I’ll never do that again.View attachment 1055083View attachment 1055084View attachment 1055085
