GA: Little Mud River, Shoaling MM 653.7
- Date Reported: Dec 10, 2024
- Reporter: Bob423

- Description:
Update:4.7 MLLW as of 12/9/2024 on the Bob423 track except at southern end at 3.3 MLLW
Little Mud River has been dredged but only from R194 south to just north of G197. Although the dredged depth was 12 MLLW, it has already started to shoal. The dredged channel is only 75 feet wide, and it does not follow the old channel. Those used to hugging G195 (where the deepest water used to be) will miss the dredged channel completely. North of R194, the channel is narrow and shallow as always; it was untouched. However, the bottom is very loose mud and you may not even feel the bottom when the sounder reads 0.0 MLLW but don't push your luck.
The shallowest part of the passage is at MM 654.3 just south of Crooked Creek (top left in photo below)
At the southern exit, pass R196 by 120 feet off.
