Bayou Expedition Tour Guide: Confederate troops were spread out along the creeks shooting at the Federals on the mounds and on the gunboats. Approximately 1/2 mile south of the junction of Deer Creek and Rolling Fork Creeks mark the farthest point north that Union gunboats advanced in the Steele's Bayou Expedition. Rolling Fork Creek had been blocked by felled trees; Porter would not get his boats through to the Sunflower River
