 Indeed, the Muscogee name for the Pea River is "Talakhatchee", which means "pea green stream".Bass, bream, shellcrackers, mullet, and catfish are caught in the river.Mullet make the trip up from the Gulf of Mexico to feed on the moss that grows on the "rock" walls of the river (actually more of a clay-like substance, probably blue-marl clay, referred to sometimes as soapstone, because it is so slippery when wet) periodically, and a large number are caught from time to time.
