John, if you decide to bring your yak, get an account and ask the guys on TFF about Hubbard. Very strong yak community down here.

There are several good marinas to fish close to the Hotel. Chandler's Landing comes to mind.

Make sure they know you're from out of state, and will only be here a day or two. That might increase your odds of getting a helpful PM.
