turning point. 1t is profitable now.
Capt. Noah Hazard has found so
many anglers desiring to fish off
Sharp's. Island that he has added two
more boats to his fishing fleet, making
four in all.
Don N. Carpenter, local angler, went

water anglers are having the
time Of their lives. Trout, croaker or
hardhead, bluefish, spot and white
perch, with an occasional black drum
