Summary
Clay Wakeman spent his boyhood on the water and finds he can't leave it. When his father is lost in a storm off the Eastern Shore, Clay drops out of college to take possession of his father's boat and his… work as a waterman, that is, as an independent commercial fisherman. He recruits his oldest friend, Byron. Hurricane Agnes roars in to ruin the salinity of the eastern Bay waters. Agnes forces them across the Bay to set their crab traps along the Virginia shoreline and to move in with Matt and Kate, Clay's upper crust friends from college. Unrated
