Hi hook ! Im 23 from Chicago i used to fish Lake Michigan for Coho salmon & trout. I live about an hour away from Lake Norman. I will be getting my inland fishing license for NC next week. Its been a few years & would love to have a fishing buddy & experienced angler to learn from. I do not have instagram , but if you have an email I can give you my contact info & we can work something out !

With the new year approaching fast, I would like your input. What you like, what you don't like, maybe you want to see something completely different, should it be more interactive or informative, etc...
@claytorfishingАй бұрын
I'm surprised the fish are so shallow this time of year! do they stay like that year round or do they head out deep later?

We have to take a photo of the fish on the board to submit it for a kayak tournament. Was getting it ready for the photo.
@dwightstephenson_fishing51507 ай бұрын
That’s why I angle my board down in my boat and with these big ones I have my net at the end of the board. We all learn the hard way. Also now that it’s so hot outside, dip your board in the water for a few seconds before you put them on it. Sometimes they’re feeling the burn like we do when walking on hot sand.
