February issue of North Carolina Sportsman now available
- If it proved anything, the deer season that ended on Jan. 2 assured North Carolina hunters that there are big bucks out there worth pursuing.
But where, and how?
First private quail restoration efforts begin with Jan. 24 banquet
- Proceeds from a Jan. 24 banquet to be held by the newly formed Uwharrie Conservation Society will be dedicated to bobwhite quail habitat restoration efforts. The society formerly was known as the Uwharrie Quail Unlimited chapter.
The banquet will be held at Snyder’s Farm Restaurant at 6 p.m. near Randleman and will feature a 6 p.m. social hour, 7 p.m. seafood buffet, raffles, silent and regular auctions, during which attendees can bid on quail hunts, outdoor artwork, Seagrove pottery, Klaussner’s furniture, and other outdoor gear and accessories. There also will be door prizes for men, women and children.
Silverthorne wins final Bag-a-Buck Contest round

It was evident from the start of the cold January morning at the public ramp next to the Harkers Island Bridge that Bryan Goodwin probably was an extraordinary saltwater fishing guide.The boat acted like a well-trained Labrador retriever, "heeling" next to the pier as Goodwin backed it down the ramp and slid it off the trailer in one motion, without assistance.
An incredulous bystander asked how he accomplished the feat. "Practice, I guess," he said. "I’ve launched boats so many times by myself I guess I learned how to do it."
An eighth-generation Harkers Island waterman, Goodwin (252-725-3961) knows something of boats and fishing. The first Goodwin to settle in the area, Thomas Goodwin, set foot on Cedar Island around 1750, and Bryan’s predecessors fished the waters of Carteret County. So he has a wealth of knowledge from which to draw, having relied on fishing,...
