N.C. Fishing Laws Noted
All visitors to the North
Carolina coast should be
aware of a few of the State’s
“fishing” laws. These are
the rules which assure that
the State will always have a
good supply of seafood.
A person may do
something as seemingly
innocent as pick up and keep
a clam or a scallop and be on
the wrong side of the law.
Although the offender will
probably receive no more
than a gentle reprimand, it
couEl he embarrassing and
could spoil a vacation day.
The Division of Marine
Fisheries offers the
following rules to watch for:
Clams may be taken any
day of the week between
sunrise and sunset.
Minimum size is one - inch
thick shell. You may take a
bushel without any kind of
license. Watch for orange
signs proclaiming polluted
water.
Oyster season is closed
during May, June, July and
August.
Scallop season is closed
during Nfpy, June, July and
August.
Crabs have to be five
inches across (from tip of
spike to tip of spike). If you
use any kind of net other
than a dip net, check first
with a fisheries inspector.
Some areas hear inlets are
closed during summer

months. You may use only
one crab pot per person on a
dock or pier! More pots
might be possible if the site
is within a designated crab
pot area.
Shrimp season may open
and close, and open and
close again during summer
months. The closed and
open areas might be small
and near one another. One
creek, for example, might
be closed while a nearby
channel is open. Check
closely on the area you want
to shrimp.
All nets, other than dip
nets, could be subject to
regulation. A hand seine, for
example, has to have a IV4
inch stretched mesh. Ef
fective October 1, a cast net
may be used in coastal
fishing waters, including
closed shrimping areas, to
take no more than 100
shrimp per day. In open
shrimping areas, there is no
limit.
Any boat used in
gathering seafood species,
even a small boat to get you
and your net somewhere,
requires licensing - except
for gathering a bushel of
clams or a bushel of oysters
in season.
Fishing is generally free
of regulation con
siderations, except when a
net is used. There is no hook
and line license required.
Anglers may fish all the
time. Flounder have an 11 -
inch minimum size limit.
Striped bass (rockfish) have
a minimum size limit of 12
inches. No number limit is
set on stripers except in
sections of Neuse and Trent
rivers above New Bern
where the limit is 25 per day.
Channel bass (red drum,
puppy drum*) have a
minimum size limit of 14
inches, and you may only
take two per day larger than
32 inches. In New Hanover
County, no channel bass
larger than 20 pounds may
be taken.
A few areas of brackish
waters require a fresh water
fishing license issued by the
North Carolina Wildlife
Resources Commission.
No license is required to
gig flounder unless you sell
them.
Sea turtles (and their
nests and eggs) and por
poises are protected.
A coastal fishing
regulation booklet is
available free from N.C.
Division of Marine
Fisheries, P.O. Box 769,
Morehead City, N.C. 28557.
A list of fisheries law en
forcement officers in the
various coastal com

Tips For Fishermen
By Tom Mann
Although the vast
majority of today’s kids are
the kind we’re proud of, still
too many are getting hooked
on hurtful things like pot,
alcohol, and just plain “do
nothing" attitudes brought
on by boredom. Brer Tom
suggests we get our kids
hooked mi hooking fish.
There’s something about
getting a kid into the out
doors, alongside a stream or
pond, or afloat in a boat,
trying to outsmart a fish.
Some people call them
“dumb fish” but it doesn’t
take a kid long to discover
that there’s a lot more to it
than dangling a worm on a
bent pin.
And, a good way to start is
to get a couple cane poles, a
can of garden worms, a
dozen No. 6 Aberdeen hooks,
THE CHOWAN HERALD
Highlights From Weyerhaeuser
A forestry workshop for
elementary school teachers
and teachers of vocational
agriculture sponsored
jointly by Weyerhaeuser
Company and A & T State
University (Greensboro) is
entering its final phases this
week. The 10-day course,
titled Forestry and the
Environment, will aid on
Friday, July 23.
Taught as a three-hour
credit course on the
Greensboro campus of
A & T, the two week
workshop includes both
classroom lectures and field
tours. It focuses on
showing the role of trees in
the total environment and
the role of forests and forest
products in the economy.
This is the 10th year the
course has been offered and
it is being coordinated by
John Wehrenberg and Ed
Brown, both of New Bern.
Two Weyerhaeuser
employees in the North
Carolina region are being
recognized for 25 years
service with the company
this month. They are
Solomon M. Carpenter

Toler of Ernul.

some split shot, bobbers,
and a picnic lunch. Take a
youngster, yours or a neigh
borhood kid, out to the
nearest bluegiU or catfish
hole. Find out where one is
by asking at the tackle
store, a fishing friend, or
your local conservation
officer.
Add enough split shot to
sink the baited hook just
over bottom so that the
bobber will come to at
tention. Teach the kid when
to set the hook, and watch
magic happen!
Remember: Fishermen
are special... Christ so loved
them that He chose four
among His twelve apostles.
And fishermen never really
grow old because the kid in
the fisherman never really
grows up.

Court Report Issued
The Annual Report of the
N.C. Administrative Office
of the Courts, covering the
fiscal year July l, 1980, to
June 30, 1981, has been
released by Franklin E.
Freeman, Jr., director.
The document, required
by state law to be prepared
for the Chief Justice of the
Supreme Court and the
members of the General
Assembly, is a statistical
and narrative review of the
activities of each level of the
court system in all of the
counties of the State.
The report sets forth an
analysis of receipts and
disbursements within the
system of courts, and details
the types and numbers of
cases disposed of on a
county -by - county basis. Os

special interest to students
and others concerned with
the growth in the workload
of the courts, the Report
shows that in the 1980-81
fiscal year, there was a 10
per cent increase in the
Superior Court filings over
1979-80, from 74,899 to 82,441,
and a 4.3 per cent increase
in District Court filings,
from 1,458,647 in fiscal year
1979-80 to 1,520,826 in 1980-81.
The courts collected a total
of $51,913,089 in fines, for
feitures, and fees, of which
over $26 - million was
remitted to the various
counties.
“I believe that we can be
proud of the overall good
record of performance of
the North Carolina courts
during the 1980-81 fiscal
year”, Freeman said.
“Although the filings in
creased by 10 per cent in the
Superior Courts, and by 4.3
per cent in the District
Courts, the number of court
system personnel increased
by less than one per cent,
from 3,361 in 1979-80 to 3,389
in 1980-81.
