    Nice video! Local Breaux Bridge resident at this end. Highly recommend the Cajun Market Donut shop for your next stop. Early AM as they close when they sell out. Chocolate filled donut about one of the best things you’ll ever eat!! And little Angelle’s Burger shop so cool and delicious. Great stop!!! Mayflies!!! I will look for some of your T-shirts. Maybe will be sporting one on my next fishing video. Cheers!

    That's my hometown. I knew Mr Hickson and til the day he passed, he said it was all true. I'm still on the fence about the whole ordeal. The actual site was across the river. If you look across the river at 4:06 there is a tall power pole, it was just to the left of it. The city put up the plaque at that park due to it being convient to get to.

    I need some help. Me and my son are going backpacking Friday and Saturday. We won’t start hiking on Friday till 3-4ish. I want to camp out Friday night at the bluff on the backbone trail. Then Saturday i wanted to wake up and finish by hitting the turpentine trail back. But I really wanted to also do a little of the Carolina dormant trail. I know we don’t have enough time to do the whole trail. Which part do you recommend if you only can do half or a little. Which part of the Carolina dormant trail is the best to you

    Good question. I haven’t been out there in November, but I was told the best time to see pitcher plants are in April- May. I’d still recommend a visit, it’s a nice trail. Having said that, I know the preserve has been temporarily closed in the last few days, the boardwalk took some damage recently and they’re making repairs. Not sure when it’ll reopen.
