Carbon Marine forked

Bridged fork or just the standard one?

Standard. I picked up a Carbon Marine push pole for a buddy at the beginning of the month and tried it out with the standard fork and it performed very well poling in deep soft mud. The problem with the bridged forks is even with the bridge they sink in the mud when you apply pressure then you have hell pulling them back out. Without the bridge the foot comes out much easier every time you pull out to reset the foot.
We have some very deep, nasty black mud in some areas down here in Texas just like Louisiana marsh (been there with my skiff) and probably similar to Flamingo.
