NEW ANGLER’S GUIDE AVAILABLE TO PUBLIC
MOREHEAD CITY – A new, full-color angler’s guide is available to the public for free.
The 131-page, pocket-sized booklet contains information about the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries’ recreational fishing programs, license requirements and ethical angling practices. It also features a large section that describes the biology and habitat of frequently caught fish species, including fishing tips.
The North Carolina Coastal Recreational Angler’s Guide is the first project to be completed with a grant from the Marine Resources Fund, which receives revenues from the sale of Coastal Recreational Fishing Licenses. The Marine Fisheries Commission and Wildlife Resources Commission approved the $100,000 grant in the spring of 2007.
Individuals may obtain a copy at any N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries office or the N.C. Division of Marine Fisheries Web site, http://www.ncdmf.net.
Bait and tackle shops, tourist centers and other businesses that cater to the coastal fishing population may arrange for delivery of the books by contacting Kelly Odom, the division’s public education specialist, at (252) 808-8028, 1-800-682-2632 or Ke********@nc****.net.
