On 9/22/09, as part of a “Georgia Wish List,” I posed the following question:

7. Who has anchored lately on the waters of Herb River (Statute Mile 584.5). On what part of the river did you drop the hook? Did you find adequate swinging room and/or holding ground?

Responses follow:

We are anchored as I write on the Herb River, Came in at high tide so had great depths. Anchored in 15 feet around the first bend to the port (west) just short of a large dock on the south side. Oodles of swing room at this point. The section you recommend in the guide where the land is closest to the water is lined with docks on the west side and was very deep (20+ feet). I am much happier with the extra swing room and a little less protection – still trees to the south but a little further away from the water. Doesn’t matter tonight – little breeze.
