What you don't see is to his right is an island about 150' from shore with a lighthouse on it. The water funnels into a narrow straight right there and there's a bit of current, that's what makes this spot so good. I've had my boat within 100' of where he took this picture. Off in the background is Long Sands. A great place to throw some plugs in some of the bowls and rock piles.

The day I fell on that rock I broke my custom rod in 3 pc and effed my neck up hard. I've had serious problems with arthritis in my neck ever since. I took a nasty whiplash injury there and touched my head on the rock when I went down. Just enough to say wtf did I ground out there or what.

I couldn't move my neck for over a month at the time. 2 xrays and a mri abt 3 months later.....

I've fished the front side in my boat a whole bunch of times. It's a nice run down from Wells. Steep dropoffs there.
