Can't afford a motorboat yet (even on my outlandish teacher's salary!). Never been to Keaton Beach, so I don't know if the area within a coupla miles of launch can work for kayak/wading. Won't do this tourney unless I get a chance to recon.

Anybody know if this is a good paddle/wade vicinity?

you can try and paddle to dark island its right out from the keaton beach channel or you can go the other way and paddle toward yates creek .you can paddle over to either area and get out and wade if its allowed by the tournament rules,check with the tournament director on that one.

Keaton is very wade and paddle friendly.
Except for the airboats.

JT will probably give you a ride in his boat. He is always looking for someone to carry his weight when it comes to catching

Just found out my sister-in-law is visiting with screaming toddlers this weekend...

...convinced my loving wife that I REALLY need to scout Keaton on Sunday.

So if area looks even halfway promising via kayak, I guess I'm in.

Make sure to bring exact change, in cash.

I will accept JT's Coors Lights and I will get my own ice. But they better not be hot.
