Yep, ability of the grass to grow is a combo of consistent water depth, light penetration and salinity. The upper end of Mobile Bay and the lower end of the Mobile-Tensaw Delta is perfect (in most years) for Vallisneria, Najas spp., coontail, milfoil and other grass to grow. And down in MS Sound and lower Perdido Bay we get widgeon grass and shoal grass.
And you are correct, in most cases, find the grass, find the birds. I have one or two areas that seem to be the exception. There is one location that lesser scaup, buffies and the occasional goldeneye just love, but there is not a blade of grass within 2 miles. Not sure what they are eating??
