Abstract:
While camping in the rain may not be desired, rain often makes for better fishing in North Carolina. Insects knocked into the lakes and streams by wind and rain attract insect-eating fish, such as bluegills, luring them closer to the water’s surface. Raindrops also break up the surface water, making it harder for fish to see the fishermen.

Abstract:
Ocean fishing piers have been a part of the North Carolina seascape for over ninety years, since the construction of the state’s first ocean pier at Kure Beach in 1923. In the 1970s through the late 1980s, as many as thirty-five functioning fishing piers graced over three-hundred miles of North Carolina’s ocean coastline. Because different species tend to gravitate to different areas of the surf, there are five fishing zones along the pier which require different techniques and gear.
