I heard the beach at Katama broke through. Chappy is an island again. This could be an easy to reach fishing hole.

Ouch - sounds like good bye to Pre-Ferry Wasque Access...

I spoke with a friend on the island today...they are not sure yet how deep the break is. Still hope it could just be a temporary thing.

It was close to doing so last year. Not surprising. I wouldn't be surprised to see it fill in just as the man-made openings do.

I believe it was open after hurricane Bob some years ago, then closed within weeks because of the normal sand movement along the shore.

just got a call from one of the rangers a half hour ago and said it broke in two places one of which is a100 yds long and was getting deeper as we spoke.the 2nd was a smaller break a few hunded yards further down the beach:bc:

DAMN...Or should I say DAM....Guess we should all stay on Chappy this year...:hee:

im packin my bags now to head down there and fish. im sure all the little bait fish are workin their way out only to get eaten up by the fat mamas that are about to spawn. god i wish i was there....

It'll be interesting to see how that turns out. 4 WD access would be a bummer but it might be nice if small boats can get through there from Edgartown.

This is south beach! I haven't seen it yet but I've been told the cut is
>anywhere between 100 yds and 1/4 mile wide and may be up to 25' deep!

one more

at least I don't have to bother buying the second sticker :rollem:

Save the sticker money for a tent cap and sleeping bag.

That could be fun too, especially with the right fishing female.

The piping plover lovers will probably abandon thier cause now that there is no beach access to keep us off of. No more fun for them at least.

I was thinking the same thing. Wonder if this will change Wasque at all.
