Lockwoods Folley Inlet, NC, ICW
Posted by Bill
Today we joined Tony, Priscilla, and Tommie in their fishing skiff and motored down the ICW to Lockwoods Folley inlet. Matt, Shirley and Jimmy joined Rick and Barb in their fishing boat, complete with dogs, and we all did some wallowing and fishing on Holden Beach.
We were a little concerned with the weather as there were storms rolling in off of the ocean. We had a little sprinkling of rain on the way there, but once we were at the inlet, all of the bad stuff parted and went to either side of us. The water there is also much clearer than our normal beach spots around oak island because it is further away from the Cape Fear river entrance and is not influenced by the river water. We motored back just in time to avoid a downpour, and had another cookout, this time burgers and dogs. Great day!
