Some of you may know the story about how Offatts Bayou got its name. For those that don't ... back in the days when the rail ran straight up/down Broadway... people would say " I want off at the bayou"... thus it became known as "Offatts Bayou". Good stuff eh?

Is the water clearer in Offats than the rest of the bay? A buddy of mine use to go gigging for stone crabs in offats at night. When I asked how he could see he said the water was very clear. He would snorkel with a gig and dive light and dive down 10 to 15 feet or so to gig them.
