Alligator River - Catfish Point

Location: Alligator River
Mile Marker: Mile 94.3
Lat / Lon: N 35° 45.929' / W 076° 04.242'
Depth: 6-14 Feet
Description:
Nice protected anchorage. Yes you have to be mindful and follow your Chartplotter. As suggested by others until you clear the entrance, then plenty of water. — Head west from Marker 26, then cross 6ft shoal into the channel follow your Chartplotter and channel north and will keep you well away from tree trunks. When anchoring stay away from the shore when you drop anchored. We put out 100' no problem. No other boats were seen during our stay.

This anchorage worked very well for us. It was a windy night so no problems with bugs. We didn't see shallows less that 6 feet. We tucked ourselves round the bend - further in than the anchor symbol and had a comfortable night. No cell phone (T-Mobile).

As reported for area, potential snags. We used a secondary Danforth anchor with a trip line without problems.
