What a great find!!! Thanks for the link! Although I'm sorta an ol' timer on VB, the really old ones, mostly dead now, spoke of the long reef starting at the point and running all through to Dry Reef. All said the reef would expose at real low tides. Had many oyster reefs in the Bay at the time. These guys would run just to the inside Bay reefs, anchor on them, wade with long cane poles, live shrimp, then sink the boat w/ specks and reds. Notice that the Pass looks almost the same today.
