Member since August 2020 Hatteras, United States
Background
I've been fishing all my life. I caught my first big fish off the Rodanthe pier in 1970. Got my first boat in 1979 and my Capt Lic. in 1991. Got trained to scuba dive and became what others call a world-class diver to depths of 400ft or more to wrecks. So I kinda have inside knowledge on the fish and know what's down there.
Techniques
Love to overnight fish and wreck fishing. You just never know what you're gonna catch.
