The Coming of the “Fishing Instructor”
Fishing on the Carolina Coast has changed in the past 30 years, to say the least. We’ve seen many interesting changes in fishing gear with braid line taking over most of the fishing line market. Artificial baits are now the trend, along with lures that swim backward in countless colors and scents. The boats are designed where small boats can be found in growing numbers offshore and inshore anglers now depend on stealthy trolling motors that were once a luxury for the wealthier angler. At that same time, vacation and fishing locations like Wrightsville Beach, NC only sported about 20 or so fishing guides and charter boats, whereas today there are over 200.
