If you attended any of the boat show seminars throughout North Carolina in the past several years, or ever stopped by Wildlife Bait and Tackle, hired him as a guide, or just bumped into him on the water, Capt. Jimmy Price no doubt had an impact on the way you fished, especially for flounder. […]
Flounder are a staple up and down the Atlantic coast, and many areas along the coast of the Carolinas produce plenty of flounder, but South Carolina’s Murrells Inlet isn’t just any place for an ordinary haul. […]
