In Brief


Laying southeast of Rudee Inlet in 70 feet this clam dredger has become a haven for fish and lobster, because of the shallow depth you get lots of bottom time and plenty of fish!!!

The Hanks sits in 60 fsw and said to be a Coast Guard cutter. The wreck lays on its starboard side
and is in tack but very small. There are no artifacts on this wreck. I did see a diver shoot a 24 lb taug on this wreck.
