Once we tried to fish the area near the military docks on the river when they were off loading.
The CG Gunboat gave us a choice " Leave now or stay, but you will be fishing from the bottom ........... " easy decision for us. ....... ICM

Yea that gun boat is impressive for sure. Had them clear me out of the river channel while getting bait one time. I left so fast that guy was laughing out loud.

Pretty rod. I got a nice visit by the boys from Sunny Point - complete with blue lights and machine guns - lot of fun
There wasn't nearly the pucker factor as the time offshore - we were running out and were apparently crossing the path of a carrier. Has a nice visit with a couple of very fast cruisers with guns trained -
