Amadroz Island

It was a short trip from Croker to Amedroz Island. We anchored there one night last year on our way east with Sticks and Trumfanger and really liked it. There was only one sailboat in the anchorage, and we were able to get in close to shore and drop anchor in about 12 feet of water. It's deep until about 3 feet from shore, and there was a really cool dead white birch tree we could use as a reference point. While setting the anchor, we saw about 4 big bass swim by so figured there may be good fishing. After we were settled we went over to the sailboat and introduced ourselves. My Girl is a 30-foot Grampion, and the owners are from Bay City Michigan. We tried a little fishing but no catching. We explored in the dinghy, and I used my kayak for the second time. We heard from Trumfanger, and they are heading our way tomorrow. There are hundreds of little fish in this bay. That may explain why the bass weren't interested in our lures. We kept trying, but still no success. We did a little laundry, and the little fish were very interested in our clothes as I rinsed them behind the boat. We spent quite a bit of time in the water, it was really hot out and the water was really refreshing. My Girl left early the next morning, and we had the anchorage to ourselves until Trumfanger and Evalina joined us in the late afternoon. We took the dinghy to a really nice beach two bays over and then around the northeast corner of the island to the other anchorage. Later that afternoon, Evalina dropped anchor with two blocks of ice for our cooler. Shortly afterwards, Trumfanger joined us with a third block of ice. Cold drinks all round. It was great to see Ann, Jim, and Dan as they made their way back west. Hopefully, we will see them at their home in Indiana while we are traveling in the RV.Baca selengkapnya
