Fishing Bay Anchorage

Now that I have been successful in having the Lolligag forever banned from Calvert Marina in Solomon’s Island, it is time to move on. Our destination today is an anchorage in Fishing Bay, Virginia as we make our way south to the York River. Following the rains of last week, the weather has turned much less humid with just a hint of fall in the air.

Our travel today was been rather uneventful which is not a bad thing at all since this was one of our longest days yet. Arriving at our anchorage in Fishing Bay Captain Mark pointed out to me that we are now just on the other side of the peninsula from Deltaville where we had stayed shortly after arriving in the Chesapeake earlier in the summer.



This location was one of the most beautiful and peaceful anchorages to date. Following a wonderful dinner of grilled salmon for me and steak for carnivorous Captain Mark we sat atop the Lolligag to enjoy the sunset and calm evening under the stars.
