NOTE TO SELF: Black Swamp is DEEP!!! If you are not in a lifted truck prepared for deep water and mud or an old beater truck, THEN DO NOT GO DOWN BLACK SWAMP ROAD ON CATFISH!! The daily driver shouldnt even think of going down these trails. If you have carpet in your truck you better get rid of it or else know how to take it out and get it washed and shampood cuz this is the hardest mud to get out of carpet or clothing.
I went and pulled out Amos and then backed into a hole and got stuck, I got pulled out and then I turned around and tried to drive around a hole. I slid into that hole. No water came into the truck and I sat there for awhile until people noticed me. After awhile people came over and I decided just to open the door and get out into the hole. Well, half my door went down into the water cuz of my truck being half in and half out of the hole.
Here is the outside of the door where you can clearly see the waterline. This was right after I got pulled out and you can see the hole right behind my truck. Doesnt look too bad, but walking around in it showed that it went to the top of my thigh high waders and I avoided the deepest part of it.  Thats atleast a solid 3 feet of water and mud.....
