fishing partner

I am looking for a fishing friend because I don't like to fish alone. I have a 17' Carolina Skiff that fishes two people very nicely. I like to fish for Crappie mostly but can fish for other kinds of fish also. I live in Four Oaks so I fish Jordan, Harris, Buckhorn, and would like to learn about Falls. I also fish at the coast in the sounds during the fall.
I like to use my boat but can fish in other boats some also. I am retired so I prefer to fish during the week when it is not so crowed. I do not drink or smoke so that is not for me. I fish for fun and like a few for supper but I'm not out to fill the boat.
If you are interested or know someone you can message me and we can see if maybe it will work for both of us.

My offer to fish with you at Jordan or Harris is longstanding and continuing... whether we fish together in the same boat or together in our own boat(s)... it's always been fun and informative... at least for me... and I'm sure it always will be.

I knew I would get this answer from you. When you think it is time I am ready, I will need to go through Fuquey to get there from here???

I will be touching base with you pretty soon, I'm sure... to scratch this awful itch I am having to put some slabs in the boat... and satisfy this long-time gnawing hunger I've had for some time, for fresh fillets, hush puppies, slaw, and french fry supper coming up in my very near future.

Hi, Looking at your post maybe we can work something out. I am retired also, got a little 14 foot not a great fisherman only crappie maybe bass usually been fishing in the fall and spring a little cooler, I think the fish keep better plus a little easier to catch . So don't know what you have in mind or if you already have enough people interested ,might want to meet up sometime and introduce each other.Things being the way they are on the internet but at least with the club sort of like mind . I live in Cary normally fish Jordon .I do enjoy fishing by my self but starting to think it not all that safe if you have engine problems extra

Seein' this is your first post... I must say... Welcome to the NC Board!! I'm sure you'll find ("a or several") fishing partners / new fishin' friends to take the edge off of fishin' so much by yourself.

Festus I fish mostly crappie and mostly from Sept thu. Feb.. I take a couple weeks off in Oct. Nov. to fish for reds and trout at the coast. We can talk about it and maybe meet somewhere for breakfast one morning. We can fish seperate boats or you could fish with me or your boat if it has the room. Thanks for the reply.

Sea dancer : One thing good , seems like we both like to fish more toward cooler weather .My boat is fine for one person two is a bit crowed when I take my neighbor with both of are gears it is ok for drift fishing for the spawn but long line one siting behind the other not so good. Up to now I have been launching close to where fish, only have 15 hp so that is a little bit about my set up. I see four oaks close to Benson ? Breakfast sounds fine Fridays are quite busy for me so I guess let me know

Trust me I’ll take anyone out and try to show them my set up and how to fish. I took a gentleman out a couple of weeks ago to do a nite stalk. He goes by pond pounder you can ask him about me if you want to.

Festus you have seen two of the greats in this thread. Special K wrote the study sheets on crappie fishing. You should search his feeds for Crappie 101 on this forum. Some of the best stuff you can ever read. Mac Crappie dedicated to catching and learning all he can about crappie fishing and is willing to help anyone that wants to learn. They are my go-to people and I can't say enough good things about either of them.

Sea Dancer I moved to Raleigh last year and with COVID have hard time making new friends or fishing buddy’s only problem is I’m 30yrs away from retirement so week days do not work. I have a 96 ranger 461 which can barley squeeze through the current townhouse garage I am currently living in. Have been a avid crappie fisherman all my life on the yadkin chain although seems like fish bite a little differently up this away. I was raised cut down a tree drop it on a good location then come back a week later with scratch feed to sweeten the pot and pray after that the pile was loaded with fish. Also have recently started learn since moved further to eastern side of state how to fish saltwater a little. Maybe we can go wet a hook together sometime fresh or salt just enjoy fishing all together but love to eat what i catch.

Thanks for the reply yadkinboy86. You are right about the difference in the area and the lakes. I live right on the line between clear green water (west) and tanic tea colored water(east). As close together as Harris and Jordan are to each other they are as different as they can be as to what the crappie want. Things will get better now that school has started back. I will start looking for crappie in Jordan in Sept. but I like oct. right on through to March. I don't like the spawn because most (want to be) fishermen think that is the only time a crappie eats all year.
