Hot but pretty day picking up trash along the Kayan Shoreline. Northumberland County, Virginia youtu.be/afupTqY_QSo
Looking forward to the conversation of resiliency in the commonwealth
Sometime the bay can be calm. Rarely, but sometimes :) youtu.be/faf7mfdQSW8
NAPS is looking for a boat for their work starting this fall.
How much chop do you feed your jon boat?

Seats, decks, dashboards and transom cut, fitted and sanded. It turned out well, now I can breath easier π

Alright have a new summer project. Haven't even picked it up yet. Going to be building out this 1957 Lonestar Admiral Deluxe 14.5' w/ 62'' beam. Should be fun. #vintageboat #aluminumboat #tbn #BoatDIY #skiff

Ok my last video journal of the project (everyone cheers!!) Day 13 final day, using sonar to find crab pots that had lost their floats. Grabbed pot 28, 29, 30 (& a bunch of old wood) More days we'd have more pots out. #crabs #kayak #kayaking #seafood #traps #chesapeakeBay #NNK

I wish my river otters were that friendly (or half that friendly)
Day 12 was another day on the kayak using sonar to find crab pots that had lost their floats. Looking along the mouth of Ellyson Creek. There were more. If we had more days we'd have more pots out. #crabs #kayaks #seafood #lost #traps #chesapeakeBay #NNK

Time for a trip #kayaking It's been 3 weeks and I have withdrawals. (but the tennis elbow is better π )
Imagine a warm sunny evening in June, its coming soon.

yeah the challenge is real. Luckily MD/VA started improving the chesapeake watershed about 15 yrs ago and its had a big impact. I am worried about NOAA though. None of it happens w/o them.
Good Luck in Texas. Nature is resilient if you give it a chance.
yeah I cheated this year, and haven't tested above the waist. I also have float suits. They are going in for a test in March for sure.
Well it's March and I'm heading to the River for a few days. Will it be Spring or Winter to greet me? ππ¨π₯Ά #kayak #kayaking #river #teamfish #shoreline #tidalriver #ChesapeakeBay
Brilliant. My wife and I do it as a kayak hobby on our shoreline, and one of the non-profits I work with has a few organized creek clean ups organized each year. Never a port-a-potty though π
I started a program this winter collecting ghost pots (lost crab traps) www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...
#adventureheroes Great job
500+ miles a year, every week no matter the weather yep :)
I moved to the western shore of the chesapeake bay. Dock, shoreline, and an infinite amount of boating/kayaking/fishing in any direction :)

Put two old dilapidated commercial crab pots on the back of my kayak at one time. It was a little sketchy. π #kayak #kayaking #river #seafood #losttrap #ghostpot #fishery #teamfish
