Try to get your hands on a 52" or shorter bow.  60" is too long for me, the limb hits the water or the kayak.  I have had better luck on bright mornings, later, the glare can be pretty bad.  When you are poking around those sloughs and bayous, watch out for gators.  I have an eleven foot kayak, I spooked a gator that was longer off the bank and under me.  I thought he was going to flip me.  Wear your life jacket at all times, it is really easy to flip a kayak when you are wreseling with a 4 foot gar.  Have a safety cord to your bow, paddle, and any thing else you don't want to lose.  Bill
