I can't think of a worse place to be than under a bridge. Wind speeds can
be accelerated, stuff blows off, lots of things to hit close at hand, deep
channel wtih poor holding, everything loose being funnled past you.

I can't imagine surviving in the middle of a big, shallow, expanse like L.P.
with any tackle you could transport out there either. I little
miscalculation in my early days had me anchored in a 26 foot boat being
pulled through the waves in just an unremarkable coastal blow. The only
thing that save my bacon was that the boat didn't have a fore deck or
forward cabin hatch to get pulled open. Even if your tackle held, you would
need a submarine in shallow water like that.

I would suggest:

1) Maine

2) As far up a river or creek as you can get.

I don't ever want to be down in that part of the world in hurricane season
with a boat I care about as much as mine because you have to plan days ahead
for storms and take days off for every storm that even looks like it's going
to be close. Even up here, if we get a rear hurricane headed this way, I
figure I've got to move 2 - 3 days ahead of it to be sure of finding a spot
in one of the good holes. Then I have to worry about the guy who drives his
45 foot powerboat in, throws the anchor over without setting it, and then
goes home.

Thanks to everyone who replied. I really had no idea of what to do.

But now I shall scout the northshore rivers for my own personal funk
hole!
