I'm not in the bay near as much as I used to be, because golf, which I took up when I turned 60, has really cut into my fishing time. The grandkids like either the Potomac or Lake Anna.

Lake Anna is pretty close to Kings Dominion, an amusement park I haven't been to in probably 30 years. I think the park is owned by the Cedar Point amusement park people. |

It's Illinois largest man-made lake"Man-made, because the Army Corps of Engineers dammed up the Kaskaskia River back in the early 50's and make it quite a fishing, boating area. Lot's of sailboats, too. Plenty of room and on the busiest holidays it's not crowded. It's very wweell kept and has a $3.00 launch fee. It's 60 miles from my house to the East Access Launch site: http://www.carlylelake.com/Maps/lakemap2.htm If wanting to take a short run, there's Omega Lake at Stephen Forbes state park. http://www.bikingillinois.com/photos/SAForbesLake.jpg It's a nice picnic lake which can be great for skiing, tubing and fishing. But gets crowded on holiday weekends. but through the week, it seems you can have the whole place for yourself. No launch fees and a really nice launch facility. Another thing about the lake is stay away from the shoreline, even if it seems deep, it's a good way to catch a stump and ruin an outdrive. But it IS a fun little place. |

It was a staging area for the ill fated Cuban Bay of Pigs invasion among other things. It is now a very posh residents club and resort. Directly west of Useppa, several hundred yards across the Gulf Coast ICW is Cabbage Key. Cabbage Key has some guest cottages and a small restaurant/pub which is a very popular boating destination hereabouts. |

But, I'm getting older'n hell. I think the Union sympathizers who staged from Useppa were much more successful than the Bay of Pigs guys. |
