Joseph Vickers

Member since October 2023 Morehead City, United States
Background
I grew up in South Florida and have been fishing since I can remember. Started out fishing in the river with my dad and friend every day I could, which turned into fishing before work for the early morning bite. I then got a taste of the blue water and was hooked. Moved to NC when I was stationed here at Camp Lejeune. After a couple of years away we moved back to the coast in 2020 and I purchased my boat. I made a lot of friends fishing and learned from several charter captains about fishing in NC. I'm pretty much a kid on Christmas morning every time I know I'm going out, and love sharing the thrill, excitement, and memories made when that reel goes off and that fish comes in the boat.
Techniques
I prefer to troll. It's a high risk high reward game. There's no better sound then a screaming reel.
