I fish all up and down the NC coast, mainly the mouth of the north river in the Southern OBX(Outer Banks). We have a camper in Otway and we put the boat in there most of the time when the tide allows. We also put in at Bogue Inlet and I fish Bogue Inlet Pier when I get a notion. For fresh water I stick to the Neuse River and the Cape Fear. Not big on eating fresh water fish. I reside in Craven County about 2 miles from the Neuse River. I was born with salt water in my vain and have never lived more than 50 miles from the coast.
