Gas Prices, boat sizes, water temperatures, etc etc etc.... have all made anchoring out for the afternoon much more attractive to a great many boaters...

When most people had smaller boats that didn't have potty facilities or a place to get out of the sun staying out on the water wasn't so attractive. But now even most of the larger bow riders have a potty cubby, and Bimini tops are the norm, it is easier to spend an after noon out on the boat. This year with warm water temperatures it makes it even more attractive. Add that into combination with many of the more popular anchoring spots falling under the scrutiny of the MP, of course people have spread out and now the once hidden areas are no longer hidden treasures.
