Unofficially the boat Citation out of Frisco, NC is in the lead with their tournament-record 883 pound blue marlin. However, during the awards banquet Big Rock president Randy Ramsey interrupted the banquet and announced that there was a potential rules violation that would affect the leader board. The members of the Big Rock board need time to figure out if there were a rules violation and how to proceed if there was.
This past holiday weekend a local surfer from Hubert, 31 year old Jeremy Lee Crandall laid down his life in an heroic attempt to rescue some swimmers that were in trouble in the waters off Emerald Isle. Crandall swam out to rescue a father and son in distress and passed his board to the son. After that he went under and drowned.

Well a lot of friends and family have been wanting to see my garden. This is the first time I’ve grown tomatoes, and probably only my second or third garden. Growing in the sandy soil of Cedar Point or anywhere on the coast can be challenging at times.

The weather is definitely warming up along the Crystal Coast. This past weekend while hanging out in Emerald Isle it was actually so hot I went for a swim. I also got a chance to hang out with some friends.

Today the weather was supposed to be more like summer instead of spring along Emerald Isle and the Crystal Coast. So I hit the water in search of some fun in the sun.
And boy was I glad I did. After the brutal winter we had, it’s so refreshing to have summer bearing down on us rapidly.

So I made it out to my favorite hole on this past Saturday morning. Boy the water and air temperature are sure rising, and none too soon if you ask me. I headed out at about 10:30 in the morning, and the water seemed a lot warmer than the last time I was out.
Came across a buoy that looks a bit out of place.
The north wind and outgoing tide carried me and the kayak effortlessly to the point on Emerald Isle. While I went by the Coast Guard station it appeared as though they were setting up for a little cookout. And what a perfect place they have for a cookout, and what nice weather we all shared.

Well I think Spring has officially sprung. It’s nice to finally have some warm weather. This winter was brutally cold, and seemed to last forever. Yesterday it was so nice I decided to get into my kayak and hit one of my favorite spots by the Coast Guard station in Emerald Isle for some fishing.

Those that know me personally, know I’m a strong supporter of individual rights and liberties. And it burns me up when I see our legislators in Washington or Raleigh trampling over yours and my rights.
Well NC House Representative Pat McElraft is definitely not standing up for your rights in Raleigh. She’s apparently letting the Republican party, misinformation, and possibly special interest decide what’s best for you.

For Valentine’s Day dinner my girlfriend and I went to Riverside in Swansboro. This was my first visit to the Riverside restaurant. I had been hearing from several locals that it was the place to go for a really nice dinner. So I thought this occasion would be perfect to try it out.
