Does anybody know @ what stage the Little Sunflower backs up into 6 Mile and 4 Mile Bayous?

Yes and that is just appx. I really don't go to the 4 mile structure very often but best memories are it's about the same height as the 6 mile structure. It's somewhere around the 90 ft mark. Maybe up or down a foot or two but that's close.

Thanks, BR549, that info is consistent with the topo maps, but they can sometimes be a little tricky. Thanks for the info.

I've hunted that area all my life and it doesn't flood there often. We used to have a camp by 10 mile. Used to be some good eats in that area. Everything is closed now. Have to go to Rolling fork or lake George Grocery sto

Nope. Buckwabit you had it right the first time. Not to diss YC, RF, HB or SAT but Annie's was special. Not just the food. Not just the folks. But especially the location.

You werent there if you did not want to be there. In other words, you didnt just stumble into it. You had to know where it was and once there, you better at least act like you knew what you were doing. Not a good place to drive up in your frigging Acura SUV with your soccer mom decals if you know what I mean. It was as close to an old times Delta timber camp situation as you could find in a commercial setting. I for one miss the heck out of it.

That is probably the true calling of BB when he gets out of the pen- to reopen Annie's as a kitchen/restaurant out front with all sorts of illegal and illicit activities in the backroom where only the secret knock and password got you through the door. Anybody got any ideas on who could run the dice game?

Yep. Ran into a fella that used to run it in the back room of Gregory's(Shake on the Lake) the other day in Delta Grocery.

Not without an airboat! And that would be questionable! No water at Little river bridge at noon today!
