Photo Essay Entry – The Best Fishin’ Guide a Boy Could Ask For – by Colt Harrison

Knowledge comes with age, experience, and an inventory of the past’s mistakes.  At the ripe age of twenty-one, I found myself at what I hope to be my own personal “rock bottom”; lingo spawned at various “anonymous” meetings.  Only a month later, with the taste of Leeds Avenue bologna still fresh in my memory , [...]

 Before you go any further take a look at the picture above. It is almost unbelievable to think a fish like this came out of Horbeck Creek. This old drum was approaching 50-60 lbs. I heard my family members talk about these kind of drum that were caught around bridges in the Wando River, but [...]

Photo Essay Entry – My Favorite Day of Fishing – by Zan White

My favorite day of fishing took place this past Christmas, when an incredible afternoon redfish trip was combined with another trip the following morning to create a memory that is truly special.
