- Background
- My name is James (Jamie) Grady. I have been a lifelong sportsman who has enjoyed fishing and hunting around the world. My roots are based in eastern NC, as a young man who grew up fishing for bass, bluegill and catfish. As a young man, I hunted for squirrels, rabbits, and whitetail deer. I have always desired to be involved in conservation and preserving our resources for future generations to enjoy. However, my life took a different path when I joined the Army to serve my country. I joined the active Army in 1993 and traveled to Germany, Alaska, Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Colorado, and three separate, year-long, tours in Iraq. I was fortunate to hunt and fish in each of those places. Germany and Iraq were limited to fishing opportunities, but I enjoyed the great outdoors nonetheless. I have been fortunate to witness glorious sunrises and sunsets around the globe while creating memories as I was on numerous occasions. Since my retirement in 2016, I have purchased a boat, fully outfitted with boater safety equipment, fishing equipment, duck decoys and a two-person layout boat. I am a fully credentialed USCG-approved Charter Captain, NC state licensed guide, Insured, and fully certified. I maintain a drug and alcohol-free vessel with drug-testing enrollment. I love spending time on the water and in the woods with my fellow outdoorsmen and women. Now that I am retired and able to dedicate myself to conservation, it is my true desire to make sure I give back t
- Techniques
- I personally prefer to cast to fish. However as an individual who is highly adaptable, I will modify my techniques that work best for the time of year, targeted species, or to ensure the best possible outcome. Casting, Jigging, Trolling are all techniques that I will utilize depending upon the situation.
