Anyone know what is going on with the little lagoon pass bridge? They were working on something next to it today. it looked like they were putting a new pipe up. The pass beaches are closed and i was hoping to find something to shoot bowfishing

They are constructing a temp bridge. Then they will start rebuilding the old one.
So is the pass going to be truly navigable after the construction?
my guess is only with a shallow draft. but they are putting in a new kayak launch.Quote:

Those pillars are what they will place the temporary bridge on.
It's gonna be a while before we get that spot back http://www.acfafish.com/forum/images...n_rolleyes.gif
Pier#r is right, they said its expected to be finished around October or November 2015. (The entire project that is). So it wont really be fishable until I come back from college. Which is a bummer because we just moved on West Beach not even a mile from the pass. But maybe itll be nicer and the fish might bite better without all of that constant fishing pressure.Quote:

I have to laugh about all this so I don't get angry, because it will likely be 18+ months before we get to fish in this area again!Quote:

I talked to a guy yesterday who was "run off" by the guard at the shack for trying to park in the temporary parking lot.
When I was very young I listened to a sermon about someone turning into a pillar of salt. I thought that would be odd to sleep on a "pillar" made of salt. I wonder if there will be a way to access this area on weekends when the construction workers aren't there? I was counting on snagging a few live shrimp and finger mullet for bait there at night.
