Bird Island?

[Kent]

Aquaman is right about where you would want to launch from. The water is low enough now, that you should be able to see the island before launching; if not, stay on the main road (don't turn off down into the marina) and stop on the main road near the point of Lincoln Beach, and you should be able to easily see Bird Island. I have only met one person who has claimed to have been to Bird Island and never dinged his prop. It is best to approach it from the northwest. Also, be aware that the island extends under water for what seems like at least two blocks from the exposed island, and it can be extremely shallow -- and is solid rock. Also, it is an abrupt edge on this shelf, don't expect it to gradually get shallower. Finally, with that small of boat, and that small of outboard, be extremely careful, and it would be prudent to fish it when there are other boats out at the island. Be there tonight and you will have company, because I am going to do an overnighter.
