Abstract:

Captain Ernal Foster helped his father catch sturgeon as a child, a tradition in North Carolina for many years, and Foster's father was one only a few men who knew the art of making caviar on the Outer Banks. Before North Carolina banned the setting of sturgeon nets, caviar could be made with a brine solution and sold relatively cheap.
