Capt. Edmund has been fishing in this part of Virginia all his life. He's not a waterman but a shipbuilder, but when his mom would put meat on the table it was something from the bay most of the time. Capt. Edmund still can't find a region that has the quality of seafood for the price as right here in Tidewater Virginia!
