Damn! That's tough. Glad he got rescued. Should that ever happen, please let the sticking happen at high tide and not at low....

I was ALMOST stuck years ago in a FW stream... miles from anyone, alone before cell phones were popular. The more I moved the more stuck I got. I was barely able to grab a tree branch w/my fly rod tip. SLOWLY working my way to the thicker part of the branch. SCARY time...

Happened to me in the Mill river once. At low tide. Definitely scary. Managed to rock myself forward and back enough where I could get some purchase with my knees, then kinda flop forward and crawl out through the goo. Definitely taught me a lesson about only attempting certain areas when the tide is up.

It happened to me once puddle jumping ducks/geese. I killed a goose and it landed about 20' from shore. What a mess. Took me about an hour to get the bird. Remington 870's really are bullet proof. It was all i had to "help" me. Im glad there wasn't a tide working against me.

Same thing happened to me as a kid - maybe 8 or 10.
In Marion on Route 6 headed towards the lights at point road, there is a mud flat on the right. Got stuck with a buddy up to our bellybuttons. It was funny until the tide started coming in. Guy in a pick up truck stopped to see if we were ok. He raced home and got a rope and literally towed us out one at a time. The tide made up to out nips and he was the only one who noticed us. Not my closest call but definitely top 5. Before we knew it, we were hopelessly stuck.

Snow shoes or milk crates cut in half will enable you to walk over the mud and get you to some good water.
