Dean, Jim

Abstract:

Dean recommends a fishing trip to the state's mountain lakes because the waters contain such a great variety of game fish, an angler never knows what he is going to catch next. He discusses each species; what is the best lake to catch them in; what time of year to fish for them; tactics; and lures or bait.

Taylor, Mark

Abstract:

In 1983, the North Carolina General Assembly passed a law to fund waterfowl habitat preservation by asking waterfowl hunters to purchase a specially painted state duck stamp. The 1985 stamp features a pair of canvasback ducks and was painted by Tom Hirata, a nationally known wildlife artist. Over the past two years, $825,000 has been raised for waterfowl conservation.
