Most of us North Carolina anglers are used to catching stripers that range in weight from 5 to 8 pounds. Just a few hours west at the Fort Loudon Dam, which forms part of the Tennessee River system, you can catch 25 to 30 pound fish at the base of the dam this time of year.Editorial StaffSep 8th, 2014
The thought of losing a big fish is enough to turn the stomach of any die-hard fisherman. And when it happens, there’s simply no medicine stout enough to soothe the pain. There are an awful lot of cute cliches folks use to feel better about losing a fish or not catching any at all. Perhaps my least favorite is, “That’s why they call it fishing and not catching.”Editorial StaffSep 8th, 2014
Hearing the sound of a large old male drum drumming is one of the most intriguing and magnificent fishing experiences anglers can hope to enjoy. Only male drum make this drumming sound, and the theory is they create this sound during spawning to attract females. The sound is created by the rapid contraction of muscles near the male drum’s swim bladder. Editorial StaffSep 7th, 2014

The dog days of summer are behind us, and we’re already experiencing a few cooler days with lower humidity. This makes my mind start to wander in one direction, and that is 20 feet up a tree in a lock-on waiting on a deer to come within bow range. Editorial StaffSep 6th, 2014
At four in the morning it’s nearly always quiet. Waves move boats slightly up then down, and wet ropes make low popping sounds. The warm salt air carries the smells of the day, fuel and fish. We load the boat under the harbor lights; live bait, frozen bait, coolers full of drinks and food for a long day. Smiles are everywhere, this day is all about fishing for red snappers and cobia. For readers new to fishing the Gulf Coast of Mississippi, I can sum up our lifestyle real easy, “This is as good as it gets.”Editorial StaffSep 5th, 2014

Want a better shot at catching those summer trout in shallow water? Once summer is in full swing, I always find myself chasing trout that are ambushing prey from grass beds in shallow water. One problem I struggle with is finding the right bait for when that topwater bite turns off.
Typically coming in under 30 pounds, it is easy to transport, it’s quiet and super stealthy, and with a standing view it makes for a fantastic platform.
Recently, I was enjoying a quiet morning on the boat, all by myself, catching several fish in a remote place on the lower end of the Apalachicola River.

Tec diving is obstacle-ridden and humbling, but can reignite a fading passion. It can leave you with a sense of accomplishment and a refined set of diving skills. It grants access to depths beyond recreational limits, where lesser-known shipwrecks and deep reefs lie, waiting to be explored.Editorial StaffMay 16th, 2022
