APR 19 From the Editor.indd 8
We begin on page 24 with Wes Seigler (seigler.fish) who is designing and fabricating what may be the finest fishing reels in the world. We first met Wes at a show in Annapolis in 2017 where he had his new level-wind, biggame reels and a prototype saltwater fly reel. The esteemed judges at the 2018 International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trades (ICAST) agree with us and picked Seigler reels as the winner in the fly-reel category. Let me tell you; the conventional leverand star-drag reels are even more impressive, and it’s all happening in a shop in Virginia Beach. The Made on the Bay theme came to us as we were frying up some white perch in my 12-inch, cast-iron, Butter Pat pan (butterpatindustries. com). Just holding it provides a sense of super-cooking power and elevates the game. The pans are hand-cast using historic and new iron formulas and techniques in a unique craftsman foundry, and they are finished to perfection (not ground, milled or polished like the hardware-store iron pans) in Easton for a super non-stick
result. See the Spike Gjerde, Woodberry Kitchen striped bass recipe on page 28. We are compiling a list of the makers from around the watershed who we know and admire, and those who we’ve recognized in these pages from time to time—boatbuilders, brewers, oyster-growers, fishing lure makers, distillers, the banjo-maker, kit-boats, retrieving-dogs, fishing-rod builders, musicians, goose-calls, seafood spices, St. Mary’s County stuffed ham cooks, sailmakers, crab-cakers, chefs, the Chesapeake Chair guy… We’ve been doing this all along, and now, we are slapping a title on it, adding a hashtag, and sharing it with you along with an invitation to bring us your suggestions for recognition in Chesapeake Bay Magazine— #MadeOnTheBay.

talk of the bay Nat Jones stands with his old oyster tong rakes while wearing a hat given to him by his great-grandson Mario Hashin, a Harvard sophomore.
All My Work is Just the Water Waterman Nat Jones’ life on the Bay story and photo by Emmy Nicklin
“I
was born on the water... in a sense,” says Nathaniel M. “Nat” Jones on a dripping August day in Weems, Virginia. A lifelong Chesapeake waterman, father of nine, World War II vet, teacher, carpenter, farmer, and husband, Jones’ life is nothing if not rich. Born in 1926 along Carter’s Creek, the 92-year-old has brackish water in his veins. He recalls days as a boy, rising early to fish with his Uncle Clarence for crabs. Clarence would use a trotline to catch hard-shells while eight-year-old Nat would go wading into Taylor’s Creek for soft-shells. He’d sell them for 10 cents a dozen, often beating out his uncle—”I’d make more money than he would!” Jones beams from the comfort of his living room armchair. When he wasn’t at school, soft-shelling, swimming across the Corrotoman River, or working on neighboring Holly Haven Farm, Jones would watch his Uncle Jerry, nicknamed

Moody, carve cedar trees into poles for pole fishing. Uncle Moody’s namesake, Jones’ grandfather Jerry Carter, hauled freight up and down the Bay—Norfolk to Baltimore—in the 1930s. Even in the dark, with no lights on his boat, the L.T. Buggs, he could navigate these waters. It just came naturally to him. “He was just gifted I guess,” says Jones. When Carter wasn’t on the water, he grew watermelons and cucumbers in his backyard—”the biggest kinds you’ve ever seen in your life”—and sold them to local factories. He was completely self-sufficient at a time when, for a black man in the south, that was nearly unheard of. “He didn’t work for nobody but himself.” At age 13, Jones learned to hang and splice rope to create cotton fishing nets from the older watermen and craftsmen at a nearby net house. Jones was eager to join his father on the menhaden boats running out of Reedville, but his father, whose education stopped at second grade, insisted that he finish school. “He didn’t want me to come up like he did,” Jones says. “He wanted me to learn to read and write.” In 1944, his final year of high school, Jones was drafted and sent to Europe. He became a combat engineer in the Army, shipped across the English Channel in the follow-up to D-Day. Jones marched through France to southern Germany, building bridges ahead of the infantry, witness to indescribable devastation. “It was nothing but a pile of bricks,” he says. After the war, he was stationed in Bremen where he taught math to German schoolchildren. Jones still lays out geometrical terms with certainty: “A circle is a closed figure bounded by curved lines with all points equal distant from the center point within. That’s the definition of a circle,” he says

talk of the bay
with an exactness that was comforting in the chaos of postwar Europe. “There’s no other definition.” Jones raced cars on the Autobahn, explored Holland and Switzerland, and fell in love with Europe, but after roughly two years, he was called home to Virginia’s Northern Neck when his mother took ill. When he returned, Jones started working on one of the boats out of Reedville, fishing for menhaden. “I was the one who pushed myself into it,” he says. “I was just interested in it, that’s all. I respect the water. I loved the water, all the time.” He served as a rigger, pulling up heavy nets alongside a dozen other men. They’d keep the rhythm with chanties as they heaved the nets over the side of the vessel: “Bye bye bye sweet Roseanne Bye bye sweet Roseanna I thought I heard my loving baby say I won’t be home tomorrow” After years of hard, physical labor, Jones became the cook on the boat, serving up fried chicken and potatoes or shrimp and grits, depending on where the boat was stationed—off the Carolinas, in the Chesapeake, or down in the Gulf. He still cooks, feasting on his favorite oyster cakes—pancake batter, an egg, and a pint of oysters, all fried together the morning I arrived. When he grew tired of cooking, Jones became a pilot, acing the rigorous exam in one try. He’d navigate the shipping channels as the captain mapped out the boat’s itinerary. “You had to run those boats up and down Chesapeake Bay at night and even in the Gulf,” Jones says. “Everyone’s asleep. [It was] lots of strain, lots of stress. Hard on your eyes, I can tell you that. That’s why I can half-see now. One mistake and everyone’s life is in your hands.” In the winter months, Jones would tong for oysters on the Potomac. “I didn’t mind the cold weather,” he says. “Colder it got, better I got.
Harder I worked.” With heavy 22-footlong tonging poles, he’d tong 16 to 20 bushels of oysters every day, getting eight to 10 dollars per bushel. “I’ll tell you one thing, I’ve been in rough times out there in that river,” says Jones. “But I loved it, and I liked that money!” Jones, like his father, discouraged his children from following him into the fishing business. Education was just too important. His children went on to become a pharmacist-turnedBaptist-minister, a principal, a banker, a juvenile probation officer, an IBM executive, a Chesapeake Bay Foundation board member, and more. Though his children may not know the Bay the way Jones does, they share his love of the water. “Everything around here, in some sort of form, shape, or fashion, is connected back to the water,” says son Eric. And though, as Eric continues to reflect, the wooden workboats and oyster houses that were once synonymous with this part of the world are one by one disappearing, the connection to and pull of the water is no less palpable. “I miss it in a sense,” says Jones of his work. “But I had worked enough in my life. Hard work, too.” Now as he sits in his faded armchair, surrounded by books and letters and graduation pictures of his grandchildren (he and his wife of 70 years, Marvis, have 23, plus 43 great-grandchildren and four great-great-grandchildren) Jones reflects on his time on the Chesapeake with contentment. “I’ve been through some rough times, you know, but thank God I’m still here, that’s a blessing... I loved fishing. I still love it. And I just love the water. All my work is just the water. Something you’ve been doing all your life, you just get accustomed to it.” Emmy Nicklin lives in Annapolis by way of New York, Key West and Virginia. She is the Director of Digital Communications at the Chesapeake Bay Foundation.

On the afternoon before the 2015 Lights Parade, smoke and flames poured from the Annapolis Yacht Club.

he fire started on the top floor, just after 2 p.m. on a chilly December Saturday. The Annapolis Yacht Club was humming with preparations for viewing the Eastport Yacht Club’s 2015 Lighted Boat Parade from the deck. The sold-out party and the parade were cancelled. More than two-dozen trucks and pieces of fire-fighting equipment were rushed in to fight the blaze, which was caused by an electrical short in an artificial Christmas tree. The Annapolis Fire Department initially estimated the damage at $9 million. At the time, the club was years into the planning process for two new Eastport facilities across Spa Creek—a sailing center and a family activity center. Rod Jabin was commodore, Debbie Gosselin was vice commodore, and Kevin McNeil was immediate past commodore. Gosselin was set to move ChesapeakeBayMagazine.com
APR 19 TOB.indd 18
into the commodore position on New Year’s Day, becoming the first female to take the helm in the club’s 130-year history. “I couldn’t imagine a worse time to come in as commodore,” recalls Mike Mulligan, a member of the club’s board of governors. “With no clubhouse and a long rebuilding cycle, the future of the club was at risk. We were fortunate to have a great staff and leadership team. As the incoming commodore, Gosselin was instrumental in keeping members engaged and actually growing membership in what could have otherwise been a period of member attrition.” The night of the fire, the club officers were immediately on the

scene, peering with flashlights into the debris-strewn destruction and the charred concrete, broken glass and ruined artifacts, furniture and art. The devastation was stunning.
Gosselin remembers thinking, “We just have an awful lot of work to do.” The club officers saw the overwhelming nature of the tasks ahead—assessing the millions of
dollars in damage, planning for months and months of rebuilding, and rescheduling the club’s events. Other daunting details ran through their heads—employee support needs, rebuilding contract negotiations, insurance adjustments, relocation options, member reassurances. Through it all, keeping the club going for the members and employees was their top priority. Within forty-five days of the fire, after much negotiation, strategizing, and refurbishing, the club moved into a temporary space in the home of the former Harbor Grill restaurant on the Annapolis waterfront.

club completed its world-class sailing center and is about to open the family activity center. The stunning, three-story, shingle-style, gabled, sailing center replaces two decrepit buildings on the east side of the Spa Creek Bridge on a site that was acquired around 1990 for the club’s racing program. The family activity center, on the west side of the bridge, replaces a small structure on property that was acquired in 1969. Due to open by summer 2019, the center features a swimming pool, snack bar, fire pit, open-kitchen café, locker rooms, fitness center and dockage. Past commodores McNeil, Jabin, and Gosselin, along with current commodore Jim Ellis, led the yacht club out of the ashes and into the future, and they have remained engaged to finish the work. To be
sure, many individuals were involved in the process. From the beginning, general manager Brian Asch worked day and night to keep everything running smoothly for members and employees. The yacht club is one of the largest employers in Annapolis, and its seasoned staff worked together after the fire to pick up the pieces and carry on. Volunteers devoted hours and hours to the tasks with the building projects and daily operations. The club’s design and construction committee met at least weekly to work out details with architects, engineers, designers, public officials, and contractors. George Kreis, a construction management professional and volunteer member of the design and construction committee says, Design production by: Mike “Working with the commodores was extremely inspiring. Kevin, Rod, and
Jim each had their expertise on leading the projects, and it was truly moving to experience Debbie’s determination to keep everything on track in the weeks after the fire, even though the committee’s workload had just more than doubled.” The three former commodores grew up together in second- and third-generation Annapolis Yacht Club families. Gosselin says, “Our family connections run deep, and we’re bonded by sailing and AYC. Our parents were friends. I crewed for Kevin in my early teens, our families cruised together, and Rod’s first ocean cruise was on our family boat to Bermuda. “It’s been really fun working closely with my longtime friends Kevin and Rod, and getting to know many amazing people.

part now is seeing everyone so happy about being back in the clubhouse.” The commodores remember a time when the club was at a crossroads, struggling with an aging and declining membership. Gosselin recalls, “We turned to the members and said, ‘Here’s our challenge—help us find the solution.’ We conducted surveys and focus groups and town hall meetings to try to understand how to stay successful.” The elegant, reconstructed clubhouse is now open and busier than ever. The light that once shone through smoke and debris now sparkles from crystal chandeliers overhead. Across Spa Creek, the sailing and family activity centers are nearly ready for the 2019 summer season. These projects have earned accolades from the wider world of yachting. The club is ranked fourth among the top thirty yacht clubs in the country by Platinum Clubs of America, and is at full membership, with more than 1600 members and very active social, racing, and cruising programs. In the clubhouse on a breezy spring evening, there is a pause in the chatter and the clink of dinnerware as members rise to the broadcasted command, “attention to colors.” The signal-cannon fires as the flag is lowered to the sound of the bugled retreat. Sunset reflects off of Spa Creek and glints off of the windows of the new sailing and family activity centers. The flag is folded as the members take their seats. Out of the ashes, the Annapolis Yacht Club stands open and ready to sail on. Ann Powell is a freelance writer and former attorney.

Wes Siegler is turning out stunning fishing reels in Virginia Beach. #MadeontheBay
Reinventing the Reel Wes Seigler’s innovation in fishing reel design story and photos by Kendall Osbourne
W
hen you meet Wes Seigler, it only takes a moment to gauge his passion and talent. His mental gears turn constantly as his creative ideas roll out, emphasized by his tinkering fingers. He analyzes everything, pointing out weaknesses and strengths. Seigler is a Chesapeake Bay native. His family has a place near Reedville where he spent weekends and summers, fishing on the Great Wicomico River. He went off to Ohio State University to play division-one soccer, where he blew out his knee. He took to cycling to rehab his knee and eventually turned pro and raced for 10 years, four of them in Europe with a Dutch team. Along the way, he modified and built bike parts to make them simpler, lighter and stronger. He designed components for himself and eventually for Shimano, the dominant bicycle part and fishing gear manufacturer.

APR 19 MOB.indd 24
Seigler retired from the pro circuit at 31 and returned to Virginia, to chart his next career move. He loves fishing, so he built a boat for bluewater adventures. On an auspiciously successful trip, he and his pals hooked 13 white marlin, but broke some reels in the process. Back onshore, Siegler diagnosed the weaknesses and came up with solutions. His resulting design was for a simpler reel with fewer parts to fail. Fewer parts meant that the frame and other components could be more robust without adding overall weight. He shopped around for someone to make his design. He traveled to Asia and saw the factories where most of today’s mass-market reels are made. He found the process expensive, complicated and frustrating. While

Seigler’s awardwinning MF fly reel
talking to a Shimano representative about bike parts and reels, the rep suggested that Wes just make the reel himself. So he did. He bought two used Computer Numerical Control (CNC) milling machines. One came from eBay. When they arrived, he didn’t even know how to turn them on, let alone get his design inside the machine and back out as a fishing reel. So he sat down and taught himself computer-aided design code. He took some classes. The result was the first Seigler reel, a thing of beauty. He soon had orders, and he fulfilled the demand from a small shop on the Northern Neck of Virginia near his home. He broadened the product line and the orders kept coming. He needed more workspace. The best deal came from a place in Florida, but he wanted to stay in Virginia along the Chesapeake Bay. Then, a suitable opportunity opened up in Virginia Beach, the base for Virginia’s avid saltwater fishing crowd. Seigler Reels moved there in October 2018, with additional machinery and 10 models of fly and geared level-wind reels to choose from. Seigler’s attention to design and engineering detail is notable by how he is driven to question and improve on industry standards. For example: Take the machine screws that hold the frame, handle and mounting hardware together. While most reel manufacturers use plastic or stainless steel screws, Seigler uses aluminum. But aluminum is not as strong as stainless, right? According to Seigler, “We tested some beefy aluminum screws and found that they are certainly strong enough. And using aluminum screws in an aluminum reel results in less corrosion. You will always be fighting galvanic corrosion when you put stainless steel against aluminum in a salt water environment.”
The SG (small game) lever drag ($300) is their most popular reel. The reel can hold 475 yards of 50-pound braid and it weighs 12.8 ounces. Each crank of the handle reels in 38-inches of line. Add the super-smooth, stacked, carbon-fiber and stainless-steel drag system that can be quickly adjusted down to 28-pounds, and you have the best reel in its class. Seigler’s six conventional reel models feature giant cranks and handles, and the trademark lever drag. He also makes a beautiful, low-profile, star-drag reel for surf casting for sharks and big red drum. Seigler is obsessed with reducing the startup drag quotient in his reels in order to mitigate the chance of losing a fish on the take. His fly-reel prototypes had no outgoing click, a traditional feature that does nothing to increase fly-angling success but offers an exciting “screaming reel” sound. But fly anglers like that sound, so he added it in a way that adds virtually no startup resistance. Seigler makes three saltwaterfocused fly reel models, all featuring the unique lever drag system, which consists of layers of carbon fiber and stainless-steel plates. The lever adjustment allows precise, instantly repeatable drag settings and mid-fight adjustment without having to switch
hands. The SF (smallfly for 6- to 8-weight lines $750), MF (medium-fly for 9- to 11-weigth lines $1,000) and BF(big-fly for 11- to 14-weight lines $1,500). The BF measures 4.5 inches in diameter, and it’s built for whipping leviathans, as proven by Seigler’s recent test mission to catch giant trevally in the Seychelles. The MF won the best fly-reel award at the prestigious 2018 International Convention of Allied Sportfishing Trades Show, the world’s largest fishing trades show. Seigler has more designs in the works—a larger blue-water conventional reel, a huge fly reel for chasing billfish, and a more-affordable fly reel for starters. All Seigler reels come with a lifetime warranty and you can buy direct at Seiglerfish.com and at specialty Tackle shops such as AllTackle in Annapolis, Tochterman’s in Baltimore, Bishop’s in Yorktown. Kendall Osbourne is a keen saltwater fly angler, photographer and outdoor writer based in Norfolk.

Cast-Iron Rockfish & Succotash On the lookout for a new approach to cooking the Bay’s favorite fish? We were too, so we called up our friends at Butter Pat Industries (see our July 2018 review of their Bay-made cast iron pans, but short version: we’re big fans) to find out what they had on the stove. It turned out they’ve been collaborating with James Beard Award-winning chef Spike Gjerde, of Baltimore’s Woodberry Kitchen, and they sent us this mouth-watering recipe that will do your rockfish proud.
INGREDIENTS Skin-on fillet of Chesapeake striped bass Salt (J. Q. Dickinson Salt-Works—jqdsalt.com) Fish-pepper flakes* (woodberrypantry.com) Sunflower or Canola oil 1 medium sweet potato, diced 1 cup cooked field peas (crowder, black-eyed, or lady cream southern peas) 2 cups corn 2 tbsp. butter Generous pinch of minced parsley, thyme, or other herbs

1.
Preheat a cast iron skillet to 500F in the oven.
2.
With rockfish skin-side up on a cutting board, use the back of a chef’s knife to squeegee any moisture out of the skin, then blot completely dry with a paper towel.
3.
Season the skin side with salt and the flesh side with salt and fish pepper flakes. Then, cut into portions and set aside while you prepare the succotash.
4.
Remove the skillet from the oven and carefully add a swirl of oil, and then add the diced sweet potatoes. Let them cook for a minute or two, then add the field peas, corn and herbs. Season with salt and fish-pepper flakes and return to the oven.
5.
When the potatoes are just tender, stir in butter and spoon onto a serving platter.
6.
Wipe out the skillet with a paper towel and reheat, then add about ¼-inch of oil and very carefully place the fish, skin-side down, in the oil.
7.
Return to the 500-degree oven for three minutes. The skin should be brown and crisp. Turn and cook an additional three to five minutes until just cooked through.
8.
Place fish on the succotash on the platter and serve immediately with a dry Elk Run Cold Friday Vineyard Riesling from Mount Airy, Md.

THE PROCESS
The fish pepper came to the Chesapeake Bay from the Caribbean, and was a staple of oyster- and crab-houses throughout the late 1800s, particularly among African-American communities. This mediumhot pepper has a heat scale rating of 30,000, which falls between the serrano and cayenne. Spike Gjerde has worked with local growers to bring the pepper back to Chesapeake Bay tables, and it’s the essential ingredient in Woodberry Kitchen’s delightful Snake Oil sauce, available online— online—woodberrypantry.com.

We had a chance to experience Alternating Currents, the second of its kind, on a bumpy day out of Weaver’s Hidden Harbor Marina on Rockhold Creek in Deale, Maryland. Hull number three was under construction as a research vessel, and the fourth was on the build list with a, coast Guard-inspected, fifty-foot, charter-fishing version on the board.

houses and more than fifty grocery stores. He had always loved fishing, and in the early 1980s he began taking time to go offshore for billfish. He bought a used Ocean Yacht 42 and soon moved up to a 55-foot Ocean to support his passion. Through the ‘90s, he fished beside a number of Carolina-style, cold-molded boats, and he studied them as he contemplated having a bigger boat. “They were expensive and built rough,” he observed on our recent visit. “Rather than buy one, I figured I could make my own for less.” In 1998, he started building Dream Weaver, a 58-footer, in a shop behind his house. He started by imitating the lines from a boat he liked designed by renowned, Virginia-based designer Donald Blount. “I learned a lot,” he says with a chuckle. “When I got the bare hull completed, an older boatbuilder told me, ‘Congratulations, son, you’re about ten percent done.’ Dream Weaver went way over time and budget. There are so many details, and so many consumables like cans, rags, gloves, and buckets. They all add up.” Even so, Weaver’s new boat handled well, and he took his family to Cancun to fish her in 2000. At the dock in Palm Beach on the return trip, a gentleman noticed the boat and made
an acceptable offer. Weaver left the boat there, flew home and started planning the next one. This time, he reached out to Donald Blount & Associates (DLBA) for the design and rented space at Herrington Harbor North in Tracy’s Landing for the project. “DLBA was still taking new customers then,” he says, “so I asked for a 65-foot design. We built her, fished her, sold her, and began another.” Since then, DLBA has produced twenty-one design packages for Weaver Boat Works. The company has thirty-five boats out fishing including three 75-footers, six 80-footers, and a recently launched 97 footer. We counted three boats under construction on our visit, and there are more on order. Weaver’s attention to detail complements the thoroughness of DLBA’s design and engineering, especially with regard to weight distribution. Weaver and the Blount design team are committed to installing engines with V-drives, which allow flexibility for optimizing balance and efficient shaft angle. He also embraces cold-molded plywood/epoxy techniques used by most one-off sportfishing boat builders. “It’s a great way to build a boat,” he declared as we toured the Hidden Harbor shop. “These cold-molded hulls are light, April 2019

strong, and stiff.” For a typical new order, Weaver convenes digital conferences with the client and Larry Belkov, whose Annapolis-based Belkov Yacht Company designs and fabricates the boat’s interior, to work out the accommodations and capability details. Based on the conferences, DLBA provides a meticulous, threedimensional, digital design including specifications for plywood thickness, ounces of epoxy resin and cloth, engine weights and location, and all interior arrangements and equipment in order to arrive at accurate predictions of weight, balance and performance. The design feeds Weaver’s two CNC routers, which cut the plywood jigs around which the hull will be formed. After the jig is assembled, the yard’s lamination crew builds up the keelson, stringers, and chines, and glues them in place. In the Weaver 43, the full-length keelson is made of clear 5.25-inch fir boards, built up to a height of eight inches, with 12:1 scarf-joints at alternating intervals. While those parts cure, the crewmembers cut panels for two layers of 12 millimeter marine plywood for the bottom and nine millimeter plus six millimeter topside layers sized to allow bending under pressure (cold-molding) to conform to the design. The first layer of panels gets glued to the keelson, stringers, and chines, and fastened into place with stainless-steel ring-shank nails. The second layer of panels goes on by the same process, but set at right angles to the first, providing a huge surface between layers for the epoxy bond, and temporarily fastened with screws. When the epoxy has cured, the crew backs out the thousands of screws, fills the holes, and fairs the surface. Then the hull gets epoxysaturated layers of Kevlar (bottom and

chines) and fiberglass cloth inside and out. “Epoxy loves wood,” Jim Weaver says. The chemistry is complex, but basically, epoxy is a type of thermoplastic that forms long, strong chains of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, cross-linked with other chains by bonds of nitrogen. Plywood soaks it up, so a well-fitted coldmolded hull becomes a single part with no fasteners to deteriorate or loosen. The boat is then faired smooth inside and out in preparation for Awlgrip linear polyurethane primers and high-gloss topcoats. Meanwhile, Belkov’s crew creates a 3-D plan for the interior, which is then computer-cut and assembled into modular units. The resulting, cabinetquality, workmanship is finished to the new owner’s liking and fitted into the hull, cabin, and pilothouse. If the whole process sounds to you like a giant, three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle, you’re right. Welcome to twenty-first century design and construction. The results are spectacular. Our ride on Alternating Currents showed them off. She’s a streamlined, yachtgrade version of the classic Chesapeake sportfishing boat with a forward cabin including twin berths and an enclosed head, pilothouse with dinette and galley to port, starboard helm, and a long settee. Her large, open cockpit includes the box for her single 550-hp Cummins QSB 6.7 engine, an aft helm, and two aft-facing seats against the pilothouse bulkhead. One clue that she is a state-of-the-art vessel is the aft-helm, Glendening joy-stick control, which manages her Vetus bow and retractable stern thrusters, and the Cummins and its transmission. Open the hatch just forward of the engine box and you’ll find a Seakeeper stabilizing gyro.
Underway, Alternating Currents has an uncanny feel. The Seakeeper holds her as if she were on rails as she runs straight and carves tight turns a traditional deadrise wouldn’t achieve, since she has no external keel. Blount & Associates designed her propeller shaft tunnel to provide the prop a solid stream of water to bite at all speeds without causing vibration or noise. The Cummins quietly pushes her 22,000-pound hull happily at 25 knots (87% load), while burning a mere 18 gallons of diesel per hour. Our sea trial offered enough seaway to show that she’s dry and comfortable in the waves. In fact, we can attest that her owner skippered her to a win in November’s Fish for a Cure Tournament on a very rough day running between Herring Bay and Tilghman Island with 15- to 25-knot northwest winds on the beam. Even so, Alternating Currents provided her crew with a safe, comfortable platform on the troll, and her owner was amazed at how the Seakeeper helped her shoulder seas aside and hold course on the run up-sea to Annapolis for the weigh-in. Every Weaver boat is a custom project, so the cost of a fully appointed 43 will vary according to the owner’s wishes in a range from $600,000 to around $620,000. www. weaverboatworks.com.

Q: If you could take only two lures or flies, what would they be and how would you fish them?
TOP GUIDES’
TOP LURES We asked seven of the Chesapeake’s top fishing guides to answer the question. None of them had any doubts about the answers. COMPILED BY CAPT. JOHN PAGE WILLIAMS & CAPT. JOE EVANS
CAPT. JOSH SAUNDERS (peaketide.com) fishes the lower Bay from Hampton or Kilmarnock to the Northern Neck and across to Cape Charles. For cobia and big redfish, he rigs a rubber-skirted, two-ounce jig-head with an 8/0 hook and a 1 0-inch chartreuse over albino BKD 1 (green tophuntfish.com). He reels it quickly in front of the visible fish, then he lets it drop, and waits for the fish to come get it. Inshore in shallow water, he likes a chartreuse and silver Saltwater Super Spook plug 2 . It takes practice to get the walk-the-dog hang of this one. But it’s worth it for the visual splash-and-take when a striper or redfish crushes it.
CAPT. TOM WEAVER (fishwithweaver.com) runs out of Annapolis for upper and middle Bay stripers. He uses a Bloody Point Baits ¾-ounce jig-head with a Boone 4 ½-inch Squid Skirt over a purple glitter six-inch Bass Kandy Delight (BKD) 3 . He runs the hook through the BKD’s back, to present a darker back over a lighter colored belly. Let the lure sink to the bottom and jig it up while being hypersensitive to any tightening of the line. The fish often hit the lure on the drop. His No. 1 lure, though, is a ½-ounce version of the same jig-head with a four-inch Bloody Point soft plastic shad 4 (AllTackle.com). It’s effective in shallow water along shoreline grasses or against rip-rap and dock piles, easy to cast and retrieve. “Cast long and let it sink,” Weaver says. “Retrieve fast with a twitch-and-pause, all the way to the boat.” The lure’s deep belly matches the shape of a peanut bunker.

“My favorite lure is the one that catches the first fish, and the one that catches the last.” —CAPT. DANNY CRABBE
CAPT. DANNY CRABBE (crabbescharterfishing.com) runs his 43-foot Deltaville deadrise out of the Potomac River and he’s certain to bring classic jig-heads with four- to six-inch, paddle-tail softplastic bodies 1 and his favorite bigeye bucktails with glow-painted heads 2 . He likes to troll them with in-line sinkers throughout the summer. He says, “My favorite lure is the one that catches the first fish, and the one that catches the last.”
CAPT. ED DARWIN (beckydfishingcharters.com) has been taking charter parties to the upper and middle Bay for 58 years. He brings his own Schoolteacher Bait 3 , a glass-eyed, 2.5- to threeounce bucktail jig with a pork-rind or soft-plastic trailer, which he jigs around the bridge rocks and pilings or he slow-trolls it. His favorite lure is a tiny 1/8-ounce feather jig on a 1/0 hook 4 (anglerssportcenter.com), which imitates a bay anchovy, the Bay’s most abundant forage fish. He uses a three-way swivel to accommodate a half-ounce bell-sinker and three-feet of 20-pound monofilament to which he ties the jig. Just drop it overboard next to a Bay Bridge piling or over an oyster reef and something will eat it.

CORY ROUTH (ruthlessoutdooradventures.com) is a V irginia water quality monitor, author of Kayak Fishing—The Complete Guide and founder of the Tidewater Kayak Anglers’ Association. He guides kayak anglers to Virginia’s coastal backwaters. His go-to fly is the Grey Ghost popper 1 developed by the great Walt Cary of Virginia Beach. Routh makes foam-body copies of Cary’s original cork lures. “I’ve caught everything I t arget with them—specks, puppy drum, rockfish, flounder, bass, pickerel, ring-perch, white perch and crappie,” he says. He casts them out with a size six- to nine-weight fly-rod depending on the target species and lets them drop “like a bug falling off of something, then wait, pop, wait, pop, twitch, pop…it may take five minutes to fish out a cast.”
CAPT. CHRIS NEWSOME (bayflyfishing.com) guides fly and light tackle sports from the mouth of the Rappahannock to the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel to the Cape Charles flats. Like all fly guides and most fly anglers, he ties his own. His top lure is the Trophy-Hunter, his own invention, featuring an articulated, double-hook, ostrich herl, Polar-Pony hair, and silicone bead body with a molded silicone-net cone-head, large stick-on eyes and an optional foam popper in front 2 . It’s a m outhful for a b ig fish to take and for anyone to describe. Fish it subsurface without the foam popper. Add the popper to make it float and splash. We can see why a big cobia would have to have it.
CAPT. KEVIN JOSENHANS (josenhansflyfishing.com) guides light-tackle and fly anglers to the Tangier Sound hot-spots and wherever the fishing is good—Cape Charles, Pocomoke River, Susquehanna Flats… His top fly is the Half & Half 3 , developed by legendary anglers Bob Clouser and Lefty Kreh. It’s a blend of the famous Lefty’s Deceiver and the Clouser Minnow with a chicken saddle -hackle tail and a bucktail body highlighted with flash fibers and weighted, dumbbell eyes. His second choice is the similar Cactus Striper 4 , developed by famed Maryland angler Joe Bruce, who decided to replace the bucktail body with cactus chenille material, which moves more water and attracts more attention when the water is rough. h

Fish Market The country’s oldest continuously-operated fish market stays afloat as the D.C. Wharf goes upscale.
story by MARTY LEGRAND photos by ANDRÉ CHUNG
On a chilly weekday along Washington D.C.’s southwest waterfront, a helmeted construction worker hurries along Wharf Street. He’s clutching two plastic bags bulging with takeout containers from one of the barges comprising the Maine Avenue Fish Market, a gritty D.C. institution wedged between the city’s stylish $2 billion redeveloped waterfront and a bridge abutment. Striding between two piers, the workman evokes the dockhands, schooner captains, fishmongers, oyster shuckers, herring cutters, and fish packers who’ve tramped along this path before. It’s shortly after noon. A military helicopter thumps low over Washington Channel, heading toward the Tidal Basin. Lines are forming at the cook barges— aromatic carryout joints that fry, steam, broil, and grill fresh seafood supplied by one of the two families still operating businesses here. Around the corner, flanking a plaza-like concrete pier, more barges topped with colorful awnings and eyeball-grabbing illuminated signs beckon customers. The market barges’ stainless steel trays, bedded in ice, display any seafood you can imagine: black bass, branzini, and butterfish; catfish, clams, and conch; porgies, pompano and perch; rockfish, rock shrimp, and red snapper; smelts, spot, and squid. There are shrimp as big as bluegills, salmon heads for soupmaking, and piles of oysters: Chesapeakes next to Chincoteagues next to Blue Points. April 2019

And, of course, blue crabs—loads of them— sorted by gender and size and goosed into summer sprightliness by the warmth of portable deck heaters. Her head cloaked in a large scarf, Melina, a nanny whose employers live nearby, scrolls on her phone as she waits at Jessie’s Cooked Seafood barge for her lunch order: cream of crab soup and fried calamari. She discovered the Fish Market just yesterday. “It smelled so good,” she says, “I came back today.” While she waits, the cashier rings up an order for two District of Columbia police officers: a whiting sandwich for Officer Steve Evan; red snapper for his partner, Officer Nicole Allen. Tossing in utensils and napkins, the cashier secures the bagged meals with a quick twist and hands them up to the officers, who must bend

slightly to retrieve them. When the tide is low, or nearly so, the barges float well beneath their sidewalk clientele. Like many D.C. natives, Officer Evan is no stranger to the Fish Market, “I’ve been coming here all my life. It’s famous.” Allen, who’s from the South, says she prefers her snapper with grits, but the boat doesn’t serve them. So, like Evan, she’s accompanying her meal with another deeply Southern side dish—hush puppies. Nearly the size of tennis balls, the warm, crunchy-crusted, fluffy-centered orbs are the essence of comforting street food on a winter’s day. D.C.’s finest will find a warmer place to eat. Other diners make do. Two convention-goers from Texas claim a spot at a narrow standup counter to enjoy crab cakes and gumbo. Despite

the celebrity chef-run restaurants and trendy bars that line the new Wharf Street esplanade, they’ve chosen the Fish Market for their first D.C. meal. It got raves on Yelp, the woman explains. Washington’s premier fish emporium—the nation’s oldest continuously operating open-air fish market, by repute—has lured devoted customers for centuries. Presidents, congressmen, Supreme Court justices, millionaires, and movie stars have shopped and snacked here. So have not-so-famous-norparticularly-wealthy locals. And it’s a favorite lunch destination for federal employees who work in the modernist government buildings that loom between the waterfront and the National Mall. In Pierre L’Enfant’s geographically quartered Washington, Southwest has always been the
runt quadrant. It’s the smallest in size, often marginalized socially, and historically isolated by now-extinct waterways or modern freeways. Through the years, its greatest asset—the riverfront—promised more than it could deliver as major port or recreational attraction. Which meant that, at regular intervals, some wellmeaning or revenue-hungry entity would decide Southwest needed to be “fixed”, and so the neighborhood was redeveloped—mostly for the better, but sometimes not. Through it all—poverty and prosperity, filth and sanitization, multicultural harmony and architectural invasion—Southwest’s fish sellers have stayed put at the watery end of 11th and 12th streets. It hasn’t been easy. Consensus says the Fish Market began operating in 1805, but fishing boats were selling April 2019

their catches along the Southwest waterfront as early as the 1790s. The first permanent market structure—replacing a ragtag, post-Civil War assortment of shacks—didn’t open until 1918. It lasted until city developers bulldozed and rebuilt Southwest four decades later. Eventually, Washington’s legendary fish vendors came full circle, herded once more from buildings to boats forty-some years ago. Washington’s golden era of fishmongering stretched from the end of the 19th century through the early 20th, surviving world war, economic recession, and jurisdictional bickering over federal land overseen by the District of Columbia. In the 1800s, the wharf at 11th and Water streets was a lively place. Every spring, schooners emptied their packed holds of shad and herring there, fish purchased directly from the smaller boats and watermen who netted them on the Potomac River. Wholesalers bought herring for $6 to $7 per 1,000, and shad, fat with roe, for anywhere from $15 to $20 per 100, according to newspapers of the day. “Cutters” earned a good living cleaning fish right on the

wharf. The buyboats unloaded another moneymaker, Chesapeake Bay oysters— 332,000 bushels in 1886. A percentage of these proceeds lined the pockets of the Riley family that ran the wharf and paid the District a modest sum for the privilege of levying wharfage fees. The city’s annual rights auction became such a farce with old man Riley always the lone bidder that the Washington Post ritually covered the charade. The auctioneer opened with the city’s minimum bid, $200, and then waited, and waited, and waited, for another. Only then would Thomas Riley, ensconced in his buggy nearby, make his offer. “Mr. Riley demurely emerges from his retreat with his customary bid, which is never more than he has to give, and which is generally accepted,” the Post reported in 1903. Once, he bid $100, “and not one cent more,” the paper quoted him, before he relented. Another year, he failed to show up entirely and had to be summoned by telephone. The city finally tired of Riley’s dithering and, spurred by the family’s refusal to repair the
3/5/19 12:36 PM
rotting wharf, tried to terminate the arrangement in 1908 and run the wharf itself. Riley sued. Five years passed before the city took control and officially designated the wharf the landing site for all seafood arriving in the city. By that time, there were three wharves at the site: one for winter oysters and summer watermelons, one for fish, and one for lumber. Steamboats came and went from the 7th Street wharf. Small shipyards dotted the waterfront. Fishmongers’ wooden shacks lined one full block of Water Street. Sanitation wasn’t among their priorities. Nor was maintenance. Fish were cleaned beside a fly-infested horse stable. Shack roofs leaked rainwater on seafood. The wharves were falling apart. The neighborhood reeked. A 1909 report by the city’s Wharf Commission called the waterfront “a disgrace to the city,” adding “insanitary conditions at the fish wharf are a menace to health demanding immediate remedy.” Redress took nine years. After budget haggling with Congress and two years of construction, the city proudly opened its state-of-the-sanitation-art Municipal Fish Market in 1918. The brick, Colonial-revival building with its plantationesque colonnade stretched an entire block, housing 24 gleaming vendors’ stalls and administrators’ offices. Two smaller structures went up across Water Street: a lunchroom for market workers and an oystershucking shed. Market and wharf were booming in the 1920s and ’30s. In 1922, the market sold 7.7 million pounds of fish and, four years later, tallied more than $2 million in gross sales. Buyboats from Crisfield, Smith and Tangier islands, and other Bay communities jockeyed for position at the docks, where “vessels were piled nose to nose, and going ashore was merely a matter of being agile in hopping from prow to prow,” the Sunday Star noted in 1929. They arrived mid-week, sold their cargo by late Friday, and headed back for more. The hectic wharf, harbor police station, city morgue, a trolley car line, and numerous taverns disgorging a reliable supply of drunks made for a colorful, 24-hour waterfront. During the Great Depression, customers scrimped by buying bluefish (15 cents per pound) or croaker, which was a nickel cheaper. Even World War II didn’t slow sales. Helped by meat rationing, the market sold 30 million pounds of seafood in 1944, worth nearly

In 1926, the market tallied more than $2 million in gross sales as Bay buyboats such as the Virginia Estelle jockeyed for position at the docks.
$7 million. By then, however, most of it arrived by truck. Dramatic change came in the 1950s by way of the nation’s first experiment in urban renewal. Southwest got be the Petri dish. By 1960, developers had purged it of scores of buildings and more than 23,000 residents to make way for high-rises, office buildings, and the Southwest Freeway, whose overpass abutment now marks the Fish Market’s upstream boundary. “They essentially bulldozed a big swath of Southwest and started anew,” explains Carolyn Crouch, whose company, Washington Walks, leads a Southwest waterfront tour. “It was a complete flop,” she says of urban-renewed Southwest. “It did not become the jewel in the crown.” The 1918 Fish Market building came down in 1960, replaced by dockside stalls. Echoing history, the fish dealers’ shacks were declared unsanitary in 1975, and fishmongers began selling from their boats—again. “It don’t make no sense to me,” one told the Washington Post, “[but] you can’t buck the health board.” Sunny White remembers those days. In 1972, he, brother Billy, and their father, Bronzie “Captain Pete” White, began selling trucked-in crabs from a picnic table near the wharf. “We had a boat up here we lived on, a buyboat,” he says, speaking by phone from his floating office despite an attack of bronchitis. “We’d work a week, sometimes a month, before we went home again.” Home was Hallwood on Virginia’s Eastern Shore, about five miles from where Sunny grew up beside Cattail Creek. The Whites seized opportunity in the brutal

winter of 1977. “We got a lucky break,” Sunny says. “Chesapeake Bay froze over. You couldn’t get any seafood for a couple months.” Captain Pete knew a supplier in North Carolina and the Whites kept selling when others struggled. A year later, they bought a 60-foot wooden barge, built a little structure on it, added refrigerated storage, and claimed the last spot at the wharf. A steel barge has since replaced the wooden one, but Captain White’s—operated by the White brothers and their families—still sits prominently at the end of the pier. The Evanses of Smith Island are the other, older, Fish Market dynasty. In 1939, founder Chelton Evans bought the buyboat Jessie Taylor, and, with his brother Filmore, began buying seafood from Bay watermen en route to Washington’s fish wharf. (A third brother, Stanley, later joined the business.) Like the Whites, they transitioned from buyboat to barge in the 1970s, although the families dispute whose came first. Four Evans grandsons run Jessie Taylor Seafood today. Co-owner Greg Evans has worked here for 30 years, starting at age 15. “It’s my family,” he says, as employees shuffle around him, filling customer’s orders. “It’s all I’ve ever done.” They work a time-honored Fish Market shift: seven days on, seven days off, commuting from the Eastern Shore on workdays, which last 12 to 14 hours. Business was even more hectic 30 years ago, Evans says. “The place was jumpin’ then. Seafood was cheaper.” The Evanses and Whites slowly expanded their empires, buying struggling competitors, giving both businesses more barges for cooked food, raw bar, and fish-cleaning operations. Tremayne Dunbar used to work at Virgo Fish House, the market’s fish-cleaning concessionaire. After it closed in 2017, he joined Captain White’s. “To be honest with you, I was very happy,” Dunbar says of Virgo’s closing. “It was a different program; every fish cleaner there had to pay [rental] for a booth. With this gig you don’t have to worry about that.” Customers get a better deal, too, he says. They used to buy fish and then spend another $1 per pound to have it cleaned. Today, both fish-sellers offer free cleaning with purchases—tips appreciated, of course. Dunbar is getting salmon-cleaning instructions from Grace Ochranek, who’s shopping at Captain White’s with her elderly mother. “I was going to carve out a piece for my
3/5/19 12:36 PM
sister,” she tells him of the enormous whole fish. “Oh, take the scales off. My sister and I will figure out the rest.” Using an electric scaler, a dremel-like device that hangs from the ceiling, Dunbar starts on the fish, scattering scale bits like wood shavings. “You know what?” Ochranek adds. “My husband

salmon filets, she says. Here, “I’m getting a whole fish for forty-five.” If there’s one business that bridges the historic and modern fish markets, it’s Rappahannock Oyster Bar, the newest boutique raw bar/restaurant from Topping, Virginia aquaculturists Rappahannock Oyster Company. The handsome, glass-walled building occupies the extensively renovated, circa 1916 oystershuckers’ shed and dockhands’ lunchroom, mimicking their architecture. (Decades ago, lunchroom and shucking shed were joined to form a tearoom.) Manager John Paul Sabatier says the restaurant was literally built on oysters; during construction, workers unearthed piles and piles of old shells. Chef Autumn Cline tailors her menu to the site’s legacy, featuring the company’s own oysters and clams, crudos, seafood towers, and, an oyster house classic, fried-fish baskets. (Hers come with Asian dipping sauces.) “If I can’t source seafood locally, then I try to source sustainably,” she says of the menu. Restaurant and market are part of The Wharf redevelopment. Despite initial public nervousness, developer Hoffman-Madison Waterfront, the Fish Market’s new landlord, has honored a pledge to keep the market and its essential scruffiness.

“We were able to preserve the area, add some infrastructure improvements, while keeping that authenticity. There’s something amazing and wonderful about these barges,” says Bob Rubenkonig, executive director of the association that manages the Wharf’s outdoor spaces. He remembers visiting the barges with his grandfather to buy crabs. Rubenkonig says the vendors have long-term leases, but he won’t discuss details. The fish sellers, who’ve fought to preserve ostensibly long-term arrangements in the past, are philosophical about the future. Sunny White isn’t pleased developers relocated customer parking. “We’ll survive it,” he says. “You just got to accept it.” Dunbar, the fish cleaner, worries about the trend in working waterfront revitalization, citing Baltimore’s Inner Harbor. “They pushed the [fish] market away from the waterfront.” Unless and until that happens here, he’s pleased to be scaling salmon and filleting big fish a while longer. “You just got to be prepared for the changes that are going to come,” he says. h Maryland native and award-winning contributor Marty LeGrand writes about nature, the environment and Chesapeake history.

t might be difficult to connect a stream like Beaver Creek to the health of the Chesapeake Bay. This unassuming creek that starts in the Shenandoah Valley is 150 miles from the Bay’s western shore. Besides, it isn’t much wider than an urban bike path. Cross it at 50 miles an hour and you may never even know it exists. Jerry Black not only crosses it every day, he grew up near Beaver Creek and owns a home on a knoll overlooking it. For landowners like him, the relatively short and entirely unassuming stream is the Bay. “This is the starting point. What happens here affects everything downstream all the way to the Bay,” says Black, 68. “I’ve seen a lot of changes in this area and many of them have not been for the better.” Years before he bought 29 acres bordering this spring-fed creek, it was home to a thriving population of brook trout—the eastern United States’ only native trout. Few species of fish are as sensitive to their environment as brook trout. They are an indicator species, the proverbial canary in the coal mine. “The older residents who used to fish Beaver Creek told me those trout were 15 or 1 6 inches, which is unheard of these days. The brook trout we catch in the mountain streams these days are eight or n ine inches, tops,” he says. Countless other waters from central New York south to western Virginia also supported populations of wild brook trout decades ago. Like the fish in Beaver Creek, those native trout are also long gone, victims of apathy, ignorance or greed.

Careless farming, rampant development, and unrestricted logging and mining contributed to the demise of brook trout in lower elevation streams throughout their range. Creeks that used to run cool and clear, even in the summer, now suffer from excessive nutrients, siltation, and increased temperatures. Although brook trout are still thriving in places too steep to farm or graze, their range is just a fraction of what it once was. Maryland biologists estimate that just ten percent of the state’s historic brook trout range still supports these fish. Black, along with thousands of other landowners, scientists and volunteers throughout the Chesapeake Bay watershed, wants to reverse that trend. With the help of groups like Trout Unlimited, the Chesapeake Bay Foundation and the federal government, Black is restoring the section of Beaver Creek that flows through his property. “I would love to see native trout return to Beaver Creek, but I also understand that what takes place on my land has a positive impact all the way to the Chesapeake Bay,” he says. He’s right, of course. Although they may live hundreds of miles apart, brook trout are directly connected to speckled trout, striped bass and blue crabs by those thin blue ribbons that start in the mountains and end at the Bay. As trout go, so goes the health of the Bay. It’s not a coincidence that crabs, oysters, aquatic grasses and other organisms in the Chesapeake have followed the same downward spiral as brook trout and other denizens of headwater streams. “Much of the nitrogen, phosphorous and sediment that enters a small stream in New York or Maryland or Pennsylvania ends up in the Bay,” says Chesapeake Bay Foundation scientist Harry Campbell. Those nutrients can have a profound impact on the Bay. Nitrogen and phosphorous help fuel algae blooms, which block sunlight from reaching sprigs of young aquatic

rain and you’ll see a river of chocolatebrown water rushing downstream. Much of that sediment is coming from plowed fields and denuded stream banks as far away as West Virginia, central New York and southern Virginia. “Banks that don’t have vegetation on them are prone to severe erosion. Over time, high water events basically straighten the stream channels, which results in even larger amounts of sediment flowing downstream into rivers and ultimately into the Chesapeake Bay,” explains Trout Unlimited fisheries supervisor Seth Coffman, who oversees the conservation group’s headwaters program in Virginia. Mossy Creek, another Shenandoah Valley spring creek, is a perfect example of that. Just a short cast from Beaver, it also supported a population of large brook trout decades ago. And like Beaver, it suffers from erosion and sedimentation in places. “As many as 140 tons of sediment were being washed away just from one 2,200-linear foot section of stream every year,” says Coffman. What doesn’t settle in a tidal river ends up in the Bay, where it smothers aquatic vegetation and suffocates fish eggs.
That’s gradually changing, thanks to conservation groups and cooperative landowners like Black. Coffman helped oversee restoration projects on Mossy and Beaver creeks that not only reduced erosion, but provided better habitat for aquatic life. “At Mossy, we came in and basically rebuilt the channel to its original path in a few places, reshaped the eroded banks, placed log baffles to slow down the water and replanted the banks in native grasses, shrubs and pollinator plants. Erosion is down to almost nothing now and what sediment is lifted into the water column during high-water events is deposited in the flood plain adjacent to the channel like it should naturally,” he says. That’s 140 tons of dirt every year that isn’t being carried into the Bay any more. Multiply that by thousands of restoration projects throughout the Chesapeake’s watershed and it becomes obvious why these conservation efforts are so vital to the health of the Bay. “The work that is conducted on these headwaters streams has a much more significant and direct impact than if the same work was conducted on the banks of a larger stream or a river below these headwater streams,” says April 2019

vegetation. Without adequate light, those plants die. Grass beds not only help filter the water, they serve as nurseries for young fish and crabs. Excessive algae also create “dead zones,” large areas of the Bay with oxygen levels too low to support aquatic life. So, where are these nutrients coming from? Stand on the highest vista above Beaver Creek and look in any direction and you will probably see a cluster of grain silos guarding a red or white barn or a long, narrow broiler house. It’s virtually impossible to find a patch of ground in the Shenandoah Valley that isn’t a farm of some sort. Many are poultry or dairy operations, where dozens or even hundreds of Holsteins graze in pastures between twice-daily milkings. Rockingham County, where Beaver and other spring creeks are born, is home to as many as 25,000 dairy cows, according to the US Department of Agriculture. It’s not unusual to see those animals standing knee-deep in a stream, trampling the banks into a muddy mess and sending clouds of sediment downstream with every hard rain. What isn’t pasture is a corn or soybean field, where farmers spread tons of fertilizer, including cow manure, each spring. The Shenandoah Valley is hardly unique. In 2016 alone, 241 million tons of nitrogen and 13.6 million tons of phosphorous flowed into the Bay from the 64,000-square mile watershed. Some of those nutrients come from water treatment plants and suburban lawns, but most don’t. “Eighty percent of the nitrogen that enters the Susquehanna River is from non-point source pollution, and the majority of that is from agricultural run-off,” says Campbell, who is the executive director of the CBF’s Pennsylvania office. It’s not just excess nutrients that have led to significant declines in Bay health over the last several decades. Drive across any major tributary of the Chesapeake after a few days of heavy

Coffman. “By stopping excess nutrients and sedimentation from entering these streams in the first place, we are preventing them from affecting the entire watershed all the way to the Bay itself.” Campbell agrees, adding that, for that reason, much of the CBF’s work is conducted a hundred or more miles from the Bay. Since 1997, the Foundation has partnered with over 5,000 landowners in Pennsylvania to restor or protect more than 2,000 miles of waterways. That may not seem like much, considering the state has 86,000 miles of headwaters streams. Campbell, however, says efforts are targeted at watersheds with the highest conservation needs. Some work is as simple as fencing cattle out of the stream bed and providing alternative water sources. Other projects are far more involved, including rebuilding stream channels, installing natural water flow controls and planting grasses, shrubs and trees. “The most beneficial thing we can do is create forested buffers where there were none before. By planting native grasses, shrubs and trees, we can reduce large amounts of nutrients from entering the water and we can practically eliminate erosion where it

APR 19 Brook Trout.indd 56
April 2019
might have been severe prior to restoration efforts,” he says. “Research has shown that streams with a forested buffer remove pollutants at a much greater rate than those without a canopy of trees. The entire ecosystem within a stream is more active and diverse and pollution is taken up at a greater rate in streams with a forested buffer. Stream buffers are also the most cost-effective conservation work we can do.” Those trees also provide another benefit, one that is critical to brook trout—shade. These fragile fish can’t survive in sustained water temperatures over 72 degrees. Shade keeps lowerelevation streams cooler for longer distances, creating more potential trout habitat. Providing that shade isn’t cheap. The estimated value of the work done on Black’s section of Beaver Creek alone was about $23,000. That included costs for everything from heavy equipment to native grass seed, as well as the value of in-kind donations by Black and other landowners, plus volunteer labor by TU members. Much of the cash outlay was covered through the US Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service as well as matching conservation grants. Trout
Unlimited also provided technical assistance. That may seem like a lot of money and effort for a few thousand feet of stream, but Campbell insists it is money worth spending. “We have to keep in mind that everyone benefits from these projects, even people who may never see or catch a brook trout or even a striped bass,” says Campbell. “They help provide clean, safe drinking water, better soil health, cleaner air for everyone, and better wildlife habitat. If you add up the economic benefits of these various conservation projects aimed at protecting the Bay, it comes to $6.2 billion, so it is money well-spent.” It’s not just the Chesapeake that benefits, of course. What was once a two-foot layer of soft, wader-sucking muck on Mossy Creek’s stream bed is now a solid substrate of rock, sand and gravel where the reclamation work took place. “That is ideal spawning habitat for trout,” says Coffman. “If we can restore more habitat like that section, then there is hope we can see brook trout return to Mossy Creek.” That’s already happening in Beaver Creek, if only gradually. Native flowers and thick grass line the banks where only bare dirt once lay. Shrubs and trees planted six years ago are starting to lean out over the stream bed, providing abundant shade where there was none before. Sampling efforts by biologists occasionally find small brook trout in the spring creek now, likely fish migrating downstream from mountain tributaries that still run cold and clear. They aren’t staying in Beaver Creek for long, at least not yet. If those fish are a sign, though, Jerry Black might actually catch a wild 15-inch brook trout from the stream he helped restore. h David Hart is a freelance writer, avid outdoorsman, angler, hunter and birdwatcher based outside of Farmville, Va.

Holding a clipboard in one hand, pen in the other, Kathy O’Hara carefully spreads a lemon-sized blob of yellow latex between her free fingers. Shrunken, melted-looking, the balloon is barely recognizable except for the blue plastic ribbon still attached to it and the black writing across its face. ¶ “This one says, ‘The future is bright.’’’ She shakes her head at the irony, shoves it into her swelling-to-burst bag of balloon trash, and starts making notes on the clipboard’s survey sheet. Over her shoulder, just offshore, a pod of dolphins moves through the blue-green water, their backs glistening in the blazing midday sunlight—as if anyone here, on this sky-swept beach at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay, needed a r eminder of their purpose. ¶ “The last three times I’ve been out on the boat, I’ve found balloons,” says O’Hara, of Virginia Beach. Later, she’ll pull three foil balloons out of the back of her car to show me what she had found just the day before on a day trip out of Cape Charles where she and her husband, Tom, keep O’Cay, their Grand Banks 36.

s one of the leaders of today’s survey on Fisherman Island National Wildlife Refuge, just off the tip of the Delmarva peninsula at the Bay’s mouth, O’Hara is among a small and devoted team of volunteers, researchers, and others who have been fighting a steady battle to systematically document and quantify balloon trash in Virginia’s waters and on its beaches. Using this data, they hope to educate people about how balloons and their plastic bits are one of the most prevalent forms of marine debris posing a t hreat to marine and terrestrial wildlife. They also hope the data will inspire action to change or even regulate common practices such as mass balloon releases at sports events, and smaller balloon releases to memorialize a loved one or commemorate a special occasion like a wedding. “There is documentation of several species of birds and sea turtles impacted by balloon litter in Virginia through ingestion (balloons look like food items) and entanglement in the ribbons attached to balloons,” says Laura Kathryn O’Hara, Christina Trapani, McKay, program manNick Meade and Laura McKay go ager of the Virginia over the protocol before starting.

Coastal Zone Management Program (CZM). “We are proud that Virginia has provided leadership on preventing balloon litter. The Virginia CZM Program, Clean Virginia Waterways and our partners are excited to be working with other mid-Atlantic states to further change people’s behavior when it comes to balloons.” Anyone who’s spent any time on the Chesapeake, the ocean, or their beaches has run across balloon litter. Foil balloons—those popular, shiny balloons that can be made into all kinds of appealing shapes—are heat-sealed plastic sheets covered with shiny metallic material. If accidentally or intentionally released, like any other plastic they stay in the environment forever in one form or another. Latex balloons, made of sap from the rubber tree, ultimately degrade, though how long that takes—months or years—is not clear. And all of the plastic bits attached to either type—string, filler-tubes, discs and clips for balloon bouquets or weights, and all manner of items people add, from plastic shot glasses to laminated notes, contribute to the massive plastics problem that’s threatening our waters. In a 2015 report published in Marine Policy by the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization and Ocean Conservancy scientists, balloons trailed only fishing gear and plastic bags and utensils as the

Kathryn O’Hara holds the remains of deadliest marine debris a latex balloon imprinted with the for animals including sea words “The Future is Bright.” turtles, seabirds, and mammals such as dolphins and whales. Yet, “Plastic pollution does more than choke or entangle sea life,” the Ocean Conservancy notes in its 2018 International Coastal Cleanup (ICC) report. “Scientists have found evidence that ocean plastic is linked with disease on coral reefs. Meanwhile, exposure to microplastics was shown to decrease the reproduction and population growth rate in zooplankton—animals that form the base of the ocean food chain.” In 2011, the ICC released its report documenting 25 years of collecting trash during its annual worldwide cleanup (preventballoonlitter.org/publications). Although cigarette butts topped the list at nearly 53 million collected over that time, the report noted 1.25 million balloons collected, as well as 166 documented animals entangled in ribbon. In 2010 alone, the ICC worldwide cleanup gathered 75,168 balloons, and in 2011, nearly 94,000 balloons in one day. Virginia has already taken steps to address the issue. In 1990, the state became the first in the country to ban mass balloon releases, which the law defines as any number over 50 within a one-hour period. California, Connecticut, Tennessee, and Florida have also banned mass balloon releases, as have several cities, including Baltimore and Ocean City, Maryland. Still, balloon trash keeps ending up in the Bay and on the beaches, and today’s survey on Fisherman Island is one more small step in a long, determined journey. “It’s all Kathy’s fault,” jokes Christina Trapani, a consultant contracted by Clean Virginia Waterways (CVW) of Longwood University who has been putting in the miles with O’Hara for five years. “‘Oh, let’s go out to this island and see how many balloons we can find!’ Any excuse to go to an island.” In August 2018, Trapani, O’Hara, and Katie Register, CVW’s executive director, in a first-of-its-kind effort to provide actionable data about the issue, released a report to the Virginia Coastal Zone Management Program detailing the results of five years of research on balloon marine debris on five remote Virginia Islands—Cedar, Hog, and Smith islands on the Atlantic coast, Fisherman just inside the Bay, and False Cape State Park in Virginia Beach. Conducting regular surveys between 2013 and 2017, the researchers documented 11,441 balloons and pieces of balloon-related litter. On Cedar Island, the report says, around 26 items per mile were found during the winter months, while here on Fisherman Island—an ostensibly
pristine beach that’s closed Christina Trapani works to the public—more than to free a weather balloon. 272 items were found per mile during summer and fall. In total, they found 3,460 latex balloons, 2,649 foil balloons, 3,621 plastic ribbons still attached to balloons and 1,438 unattached plastic ribbons. They also found April 2019

36 weather balloons, especially complicated since they often include long parachutes, strings, wires, and Styrofoam instrument boxes. Foil balloons ran the gamut—505 stars, 159 hearts, 25 butterflies, 17 cupcakes, 5 dolphins, and 3 footballs. Popular characters were smiley faces (32), Spiderman (25), Mickey Mouse (23), Elmo (8), and Sponge Bob (7). By far, happy birthday won for the most messaged balloons with 364—with graduation in second place with 77, Mother’s Day with 49, Valentine’s Day with 25, and 1 Smile, Jesus Loves You. During each survey, they also picked up all the other litter they found and compared its frequency to balloon trash. Balloon-related litter comprised the largest group— 40 percent—while plastic beverage bottles were second at 22 percent, and fishing and aquaculture gear third at 12 percent. “The large amount of balloon-related litter recorded on Virginia’s remote beaches is of concern especially given that these areas are either National Wildlife Refuges or are in some form of conservation ownership for the purpose of protecting wildlife,” the report says. “Most of this litter accumulated on the highest portions of the beach, which is critical habitat for nesting The team loads the truck with sea turtles, diamondback the day’s haul; all of which was terrapins, birds, and other foundin just one-third of a mile wildlife.” of beach over about two-and-half To help people in hours of surveying. other regions develop

from the water to the dune, then a half-mile—the suggested survey length is a mile, but today we are moving more slowly since the volunteers are learning on the job. It’s also wickedly hot, well into the 90s, with not a cloud in the sky. It’s not your standard beach cleanup. All trash is documented and gathered, but it’s balloon trash they’re looking for—any and all evidence of it, no matter how minute, shredded, or embedded—in the sand, tidewrack, or vegetation on the dune. When they find a piece, the surveyors use a hand-held GPS to record the position, and they photograph the item. Boxes on the survey data sheet define the information required. It includes F (foil) L (latex), RO (ribbon only), color, shape, and condition, which can be B (burst), N (nub— the bottom bit where the ribbon is tied or where the helium is filled), D (deflated), or P (piece). Location on the beach itself—low near the waterline, middle, or high—is also noted. In the ribbon/attachment section, surveyors note the number of plastic ribbons, color, and any other attachments. The small army fans out, the Bay Bridge-Tunnel arcing gracefully away behind them, while just the horizon’s edge, the hotels and condos of Lynnhaven and Virginia Beach shimmer in the heat like a submerged city slowly rising from the sea. Slathered in sunblock and shaded with hats and UV shirts, Justin Ellis of Clean Virginia Waterways works with McKay and Nick Meade, the GIS coordinator at the Virginia Coastal Zone Management Program. O’Hara coaches them in balloon forensics. She spreads out a ragged piece of opaque plastic they have dug from the sand and points out evidence of provenance.
“This is the seal,” she says running her finger along a thin border that forms the edges of what was a foil balloon. “It’s pretty much intact. Look for that, just that pressed, even edge, and you’ll know it’s a balloon and not a plastic bag.” Ellis sees a bit of string and follows it into the sand, emerging with a deflated but intact foil balloon depicting Minnie Mouse. He poses for the photo. “Does Disney really want Minnie Mouse all over a national refuge beach?” O’Hara muses. Identifying a balloon’s source, if possible, helps the researchers target potential audiences to educate about balloon litter. The August 2018 report notes that companies including Disney, Kaleidoscope, Anagram, Chick- Fil-A, Chuck E. Cheese, and Edible Arrangements use balloons as marketing materials, and they were found on Virginia’s beaches. So were balloons from local real estate companies, dental practices, fundraisers for charities, and weddings. “It is uncertain as to whether these entities are aware of the hazards caused by the release of balloons or that names are being ‘dropped’ on protected beaches in Virginia,” the report says. “If these businesses and organizations were informed of these findings, it would be helpful to see if changes are implemented in their practice of using/distributing balloons and/or educating their customers.” In an innovative first foray into this kind of proactive education, in 2014 CVW and the Virginia Coastal Zone Management Program, supported by a grant from NOAA’s Marine Debris Program, researched and developed a community-based social marketing campaign called Joyful Send-Off, which educates wedding planners, wedding venues, and the bridal business about alternatives to balloons in their celebrations.

changed, our position has also evolved. This change in stance fully recognizes the need for everyone to be as green as we possibly can be to protect our planet.” Nonetheless, in 2017—the most recent year for which state reporting forms are available— the council spent more than $340,000 on lobbying efforts in New Jersey, including a successful attempt to stop legislation there that would have banned intentionally releasing helium-filled balloons. The TBC’s website states that, “Objectively judging the cleanup data and applying common sense, most open-minded observers examining the facts will arrive at the conclusion that balloons—including mass balloon releases—do not constitute a serious litter or ecological problem. The majority of balloon litter is caused through either accident or carelessness.” We’ve only made it about a third of a mile down the beach at Fisherman Island National Wildlife Refuge when the team calls it quits in mid-afternoon, after about two-and-ahalf hours of surveying. The tide is on the rise and the heat is getting dangerous. We gather sack after sack of trash, filling the bed of a pick-up truck which Trapani will drive to the dump. The final tally arrives via email from O’Hara about a week later. In one-third of a mile, the team found 27 balloons, 57 percent of which were foil; 90 plastic ribbons, 52 of which were still attached to balloons; a foil Minnie Mouse, Mother’s Day, Baby Boy, and two foil happy birthday balloons; and 828 pieces of additional marine debris, including 114 plastic bottles, 42 pieces of fishing gear, 34 plastic bottle caps, and 230 pieces of plastic foam. h

local organizations and businesses that have partnered with the campaign and committed to litter-free weddings, among them the Chrysler Museum of Art, Norfolk Waterside Marriott, and the Virginia Museum of Contemporary Arts. The campaign research provided some interesting information, says Register. Using focus groups, phone surveys, and interviews with balloonrelease organizers and retailers, the researchers learned that most balloon releases happen at happy or sad events—weddings, graduations, funerals, and memorial services, respectively. Twenty-nine percent of the people surveyed in Virginia said they had attended an event where a balloon release took place, and 20 percent in Maryland. Remarkably, the most common venues for balloon releases were schools, followed by parks, churches, homes, cemeteries, and community centers. “A lot of people said, ‘I never ever thought about where the balloons go after we let them go,’ ’’ Register says. “A few people said they just thought they went up. So, awareness is extremely important.” The campaign provides a template for other audiences who may traditionally turn to balloons for marketing or events, including car dealerships, funeral directors, school administrators, and sports teams. The Balloon Council (TBC), an organization of balloon manufacturers and retailers formed in 1990, also recently launched a new campaign called “Smart Balloon Practices” to educate people about how to properly use balloons, stating that all balloons should be tied to a weight and that no balloons should be released outdoors. On the organization’s website, TBC Chairman Dan Flynn said that in the past “we advised people on the best practices to minimize environmental impact such as only using latex and not adding strings.

F
or anglers looking for an alternative to spring-run stripers, this is a glorious time for meandering in and along trout streams. We are fortunate here on the Chesapeake to have the choices in such close proximity. Our state and national parks explode with wild blooms, and many of the region’s myriad streams run cold and clear. I’m no trout fishing expert by anyone’s standard, but I know of no better way to calm the angst of a world gone mad than to fish the Bay’s headwater streams for trout. There’s a thrill in just getting to these kinds of places, bouncing along off-road trails and up rock-strewn gullies.
wild chesapeake
Some years back, I traveled to the mountains for a weekend of fishing and camping with a friend who was disentangling himself from a marriage that was doomed from the start. He needed this trip more than I did, and I needed it badly. The day broke gorgeously with crisp mountain air seeping through a canopy of trees lining the Casselman River near Grantsville, Maryland. Where the river flows south to north across the Pennsylvania line, we discovered that we were straddling the Mason-Dixon line, the famed boundary drawn to settle the land dispute between the Penn and Calvert families. That afternoon, the fish were cooperative, and in a secluded spot with fast-flowing riffles and good pools, a wooly-bugger fly fooled some rainbow trout and even a few smallmouth bass. When clouds rolled in and charged the air with electricity, standing the hair on my arms on end, we reluctantly got off the water. My friend’s troubles hadn’t disappeared, but he at least he felt recharged. And so did I. No question, the Bay watershed has lots of places to fish for trout, more than one angler could fish in a lifetime. I may be biased, but my home state of Maryland, known mostly for the stripers and crabs, has impressive trout options. Formed from the cold-water Alleghany Mountain springs, the Savage River is one of Maryland’s top fishing destinations for native, wild brook and not-native brown trout. I used to camp twice a year at Savage River State Park, which, at 54,000 acres, is the largest park in the state forest system. Poplar Lick and Big Run were two of my favorite places to prod the pockets for not-so-wise trout. According to Maryland’s Sport Fisheries Advisory Commission chairman and Trout Unlimited life member John Neely, there is good April 2019

news about the future of wild trout in western Maryland. “The upper Savage River drainage is the largest intact wild trout habitat south of Maine. With 120 miles of interconnected streams, it supports a healthy population of Maryland’s only remnant fish from the last ice age, the wild brook trout,” he says. Biologists estimate that adult trout densities measure roughly 1,000 fish per mile throughout most of the river. Although brown trout dominate the stream, there are plenty of brookies. Neely goes on to explain that, almost twenty years ago, Maryland joined other eastern states to undertake a brook trout initiative that called for the use of artificial lures and flies and catch-and-release only in designated stretches (special management areas) of the Savage River watershed and other sensitive trout areas such as the upper stretch of the North Branch of the Potomac. “Because of these conservation measures, there has been strong recruitment in young-of-year and

the population has taken off,” he says. “Tributary streams to the Savage River, such as Poplar Lick, Big Run, Middle Fork and to a lesser extent Dry Run regularly support 1,200 to 1,400 wild brook trout per mile. And it’s not uncommon now to catch 10- to 12-inch brookies.” While the Savage River brook trout resurgence has sweetwater anglers amped, both the upper Casselman and Youghiogheny river trout populations are also improving. Decades of work by the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, the Maryland Department of the Environment, and the Youghiogheny River Watershed Association to redeem the Casselman River watershed in Garrett County is paying off. Today, this tributary, once awash in chemical pollutants from abandoned coal mines, which nearly

wiped out the brook trout population, is healthier and getting stronger. It’s true that not everyone fishes (heathens), but we all require clean drinking water. Efforts on the federal
level to ease regulations could taint water supplies and unbutton years of work that restored these pastoral regions of the Bay watershed. Environmental and conservation

groups, working with public agencies, have planted riparian buffers of native hardwoods, cool-season and warmseason grasses and shrubs, which help reduce harmful nutrient and sediment pollution that enters the streams and creeks. Keeping wild places wild also provides the bonus of incredible wildlife sightings. I recall a float trip down the Shenandoah River and being mesmerized by river otters, their dark-brown coats shimmering in the sun’s rays. Amiable and fun-loving swimmers, they’re a treat to see in their natural environs. Other outings revealed a Baltimore oriole and different types of swallows, including the tree swallow with its beautifully iridescent head. My buddy Jeff Lewandoski operates Gunpowder River Angler and is spot-on when he tells me that fly fishing for freshwater trout “tests an angler’s instincts and requires patience and finesse. The slightest differences in approach, presentation, and choice of techniques can be the difference between just fishing or catching.” Few things spark greater joy than walking a trout stream and matching wits with wild trout sheathed in wilderness. It helps keep melancholy at bay. I can fish with riveted focus or simply let my thoughts float downstream, and no one can tell the difference. Sometimes neither can I, and perhaps that’s the best part.

or the past dozen or so years, I have been trying to lure you into visiting some of the Chesapeake’s least known but most deserving destinations. Beginning with Colonial Beach in maybe 2005, then Crisfield, then the upper Patuxent River, I have described probably 120 beautiful, intriguing, exciting, alluring, adventurous, historic, mysterious, fascinating, serene, crazy and/or secret places to cruise on the Bay. “Come up the Rappahannock to little Tappahannock,” I write enthusiastically. Or, “You must see Port Deposit, which clings to the edge of stern granite cliffs, while, year after year, the Susquehanna tries to wash it away.” Also, “Unlock the secret to entering Horn Harbor on the Great Wicomico and discover a jewel box of peace and beauty inside.” And so forth. But what happens? Each month you politely read the article. You say, perhaps, “Yes, that sounds kind of nice.” And then you go back to St. Michaels. Or Solomons, in a pinch. ChesapeakeBayMagazine.com
APR 19 Jody's Log.indd 72
The following month, I try again. “Brave the shallow Poquoson Flats to discover the historic boatyards of Smith Marine Railway on Chisman Creek or York River Marina on Bennett Creek.” I remind you that at York Haven Marina, “You also can ride an airboat and thrill to skittering over the watery islands of the Poquoson.” Or I say, “Travel up the enchanted Chickahominy River to tiny Colonial Haven where you’ll have a first-class, Sunday breakfast and meet a delightful couple who make friends with turtles. “Yes, that does sound interesting,” you say, and then go up to Solomons, followed by St. Michaels. Always St. Michaels. I don’t write about St. Michaels, because what’s the point? You already know the place better than I do. No, I just keep trying to get you to go somewhere else, knowing full well that no matter what I say, no matter how irresistible I make it sound, I am not going change your mind. You like St. Michaels. Your children like St. Michaels. Even your dog likes St. Michaels. You went to St. Michaels last year and the year before. You went there with your parents. You went there after you got married and bought your first grown-up boat. You went with your own children. Now you go with your dog. Eventually, your children will buy a boat and go there too. It’s no wonder it gets so crowded. I walk down the dock on a fine Saturday morning. “Where are you off to this weekend?” I ask, as if I didn’t know. “St. Michaels.” “St. Michaels.” “St. Michaels.” At the Baltimore Boat Show, I chat with a couple from Cape May, New Jersey, who cruise up Delaware Bay and over into the Chesapeake every summer. They love the Bay! “What’s your favorite place to go?” I ask them. “Oh, St. Michaels!” Yes, yes, I know. St. Michaels has everything going for it. It is easy to get to, has a big anchorage and good

You can stay in a charming inn. Heck, you can even pick from three spas. You can sample every libation known to homo sapiens. And you can visit one of the best museums of any kind.

Havre de Grace has great ice cream at Bomboys, handmade macarons at Les Petits Bissous, marinas, a mooring field, a bookstore to crow about and four museums—five if you count Bahoukas Antique Mall & Beer MuZeum and six if you count McLhinney’s Speakeasy Museum. What about Cape Charles at the other end of the Bay? Excellent ice cream at Brown Dog, first-rate pizza at Deadrise Pies, a singular hardware store, and a longdelicious, white-sand beach. Norfolk has its own battleship, a lot of good food, fine shopping, a great art museum and a first-rate maritime museum of its own. I could go on. Oxford, Cambridge, Chesapeake City. I will go on. The Wharf, National Harbor, Cobb Island, Reedville, Chestertown, Pocomoke, Mobjack, the Wye, the four Wicomicos (Wicomico, Md., Wicomico,Va., Great Wicomico and Little Wicomico) and the two Choptanks. I haven’t even gotten to the extraordinary Mattaponi and Pamunkey yet. Listen, I’m going to make you a deal. You go to one of those 120 other places on the Bay this summer and I’ll go to St. Michaels. I’ll even write about it. Not that you’ll need to read it. You can just say, “We told you so.” Cruising Editor Capt. Jody Argo Schroath, with the help and not infrequent hindrance of ship’s dogs Bindi & Sammy, goes up and down bays, rivers and creeks in search of adventure and stories.

irders flock to Kent County of Maryland’s upper Eastern Shore all year round, but the best time of year to see the biggest abundance of birds is the spring. And technological advancements have made the birding experience more engaging and rewarding. In the old days, you’d have a road map, a bird book and a pair of binoculars – and high hopes you’d find something worth looking at. Today, binoculars and spotting scopes offer keener vision and better value; smart phone apps help you locate birds and help identify them once you’ve spotted them; and digital cameras let you capture them in still photographs and even videos that you can share instantly. There’s a new smart phone app called eBird from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology that links you with other birders all around the world, even if you’re on a remote island wildlife refuge at the mouth of the Chester River. With eBird’s free mobile app, you can find out where the birds are, identify them by sight or song when you find them, and help thousands of other avid birders keep track of migrations, habitat
and other data that can help scientists study birds. You’ll have all the resources of a thousand-page bird book—and more—right in your pocket. You don’t have to be an expert to be a citizen-scientist collecting and sharing valuable data. Charlie Lister is a shining example of an amateur photographer who’s doing important work protecting wildlife. He’s got a day job in the insurance industry, but that career gives him the flexibility to work remotely. He and his wife are avid kayakers, and “in order to feed our kayaking habit, we bought a camper trailer and started visiting campgrounds near the water,” he explains. The one near Rock Hall was the last one they visited. After one year in the trailer, the couple bought a second home in Rock Hall, a short 11-minute drive from the Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge on Eastern Neck Island. “I can go down there before work and again after work to watch the sunset. When I’m in Rock Hall, I can be there every day,” he notes. That proximity led Charlie to become involved with helping to promote the refuge.
He’s become one of the administrators of the official Facebook page and has gotten into the habit of taking lots of pictures to post on the site. The activity has doubled the number of people who follow the page. Charlie’s an extraordinarily talented amateur, but getting to that stage took a lot of practice. He also benefits from the staff at the refuge, who help him identify some of the birds and animals he captures on pixels. He’s happy to share some tips he’s learned over time: Take a lot of pictures, that’s the advantage of digital photography, you might take 30 pictures, and if three of them are good, that’s what everybody will see. The advantage of digital cameras is that you don’t have to worry about wasting film. You can take as many pictures as you want. The more you practice, the better you’ll get, both at identifying birds and at photographing them. Start with vultures and herons; they’re easy to spot and they aren’t so easy to scare off. Have the proper equipment. It doesn’t have to be expensive. Cell phones are good for scenery phoApril 2019

Maryland tos, but not for wildlife. You’ll need a digital camera with a zoom lens. If you use your cell phone, don’t use the zoom feature; you’ll just wind up with a blurry, pixilated shot. Instead, shoot full-frame and edit the photo with the cropping tool to zoom in on your subject. Charlie started out with a Nikon D3400 with a 600 MM lens, which is a decent zoom, but recently upgraded to a Nikon T1000 with a 3000 MM zoom lens. “This camera gets me closer to the wildlife than ever,” he says. “It’s amazing how much you can do hand-held,” without a tripod. Every once in a while, you get lucky and you’ll see something close up and it’s not going to run away. Don’t be intimidated, go out and enjoy nature. You might be there when something of interest

comes along, you can get a picture you can be proud of. Be in the right place at the right time, and always keep your eyes open, but be careful not to intrude on the wildlife, or it’s gone. The best times are sunset, sunrise, and cloudy days. The sun – and the shadows it casts -- can be intrusive when you’re trying to shoot at certain angles. When the sun sets, particularly if it’s setting behind you, you get a nice light. Sunset and sunrise are also good times for heightened wildlife viewing, since that’s when most birds are most active. The best places can be found all around Kent County, where you can see and record more than 300 species, including Canada geese, snow geese, 24 different kinds of ducks, great blue herons, terns, swallows, sparrows, blackbirds and lots of eagles. Check out the Kent County tourism web site for prime places to find bi ds, places like: Eastern Neck National Wildlife Refuge, with more than 70 species of nesting birds to be sighted along miles of hiking trails. The trails, observation platform, boat launch ramp and visitor center are open year round. There’s a wildlife habitat tour at Chesapeake Farms that’s open to the public in season, where you can get close views of waterfowl, eagles, osprey, shorebirds and songbirds without getting out of your car. Charlie Lister made a custom zoom lens support pad from a foam swimming pool “noodle” that rests on the lip of his open car window. It makes the perfect soft prop for heavy zoom lenses, he says.
