94-acre river near Epe. The river tops out around 5 ft. The depth chart is built from real state fisheries GPS surveys, so the humps, channels and drop-offs you see are measured, not guessed. Species by species, here's what the data says the year looks like.
The chart traces NaN miles of shoreline here, with 58 islands in the mix. Index NaN on the shoreline: a few honest points and pockets, nothing labyrinthine.
