Bay

Bay
Bay - Chesapeake Bay – Approximately 800 miles north of the Florida coast and an equal distance south of Casco Bay, Maine, lays one of the largest watershed basins in the United States: the Chesapeake Bay, child of the “mother of waters”. The bay is 200 miles long and its watershed includes six states. With over 5,600 miles of shoreline, 46 principle rivers, and countless creeks, the Chesapeake Bay is the largest inland body of water on the East Coast. Snug harbors and cozy coves provide vast opportunities for exploration and adventure. For the mariner searching for a boater’s paradise, where the seasons are long and the weather mild, the Chesapeake Bay should be at the top of the list. The water provides a center for travel, commerce and leisure, home to many species of wildlife, and a great natural resource.

Osprey - Water is all around, and untouched grasslands, forests, farms and crop fields cover the land with a sprinkling of small towns and old estates up the Bay-side coastline. With little industrial development, the centuries-old habitats of these Shore natives thrive. Birds, deer, frogs, foxes and other creatures are very common to find. The nature is truly wild, yet in a serene and beautiful setting

Fishing


IT'S THE ARC OF A WAKING DRY AS IT SKATES ACROSS BRACKISH GREEN WATER. THE PRECISE MEND THAT SLIDES A #22 TRICO ON A DRAG-FREE DRIFT INTO THE LANE. THE ARROW-SHAPED LOOP OF A GOOD CAST DRIVING THE FLY UPWIND INTO THE PATH OF A TAILING STRIPER. THE CLEANEST LINE. "THE CLEANEST LINE IS HOW WE ASPIRE TO MARK OUR PASSAGE AND PRESENCE ON THE WATERS THAT HOLD OUR DREAMS." THE CLEANEST LINE IS ALSO A WAY OF DOING BUSINESS AND, BEYOND
THAT, HOW WE SEE OUR PLACE IN THE WORLD. IT MEANS LEAVING AS LIGHT A FOOTPRINT
AS POSSIBLE, AND DOING WHAT'S RIGHT SIMPLY BECAUSE, WELL, IT'S RIGHT. THE
CLEANEST LINE, THEN IS MANY THINGS. BUT MOST OF ALL, IT'S HOW WE LIKE TO EXPERIENCE OUR TIME ON THE WATER - WAIST DEEP. TREADING LIGHTLY AND LOOKING TO
THE HORIZON. WELCOME TO THE RIVERSIDE SHORE.
