VB this Friday????

[Seeing Spots]

If you are coming from Intracostal city, it is best to stay to the left once you enter pass if you dont know what you are doing. On the way out you will want to stay close to the red markers ( keep them on your left on the way out) The green markers will fool you if you dont know where to look for them. This is where people get in trouble...the pass will head in a south west direction when you first get in it then it will make a slight turn to Southeast then a hard turn west and finally a hard turn south. The last turn is another tricky spot because the last red channel marker gets knocked down often. The water goes from 80 feet to a shallow reef right there. I would advise you to follow someone who knows and get a trail on your GPS. Both sides of the pass are filled with Trip Killers. Wouldnt want anyone to get in trouble it is a long way to any launch from there. But if you get stuck, pull out the top water and throw until high tide comes. The reefs there are extremely sharp so dont go into water with out protection on your feet. I keep an old pair of Shoes in my boat at all times. If you head east once you get into the gulf you need to be careful there also. Ive seen many people going at good rates of speed come to a screeching halt.
