Pamlico Sound….An Angler’s Heaven
North Carolina is home to one of the largest fisheries in America. The Albemarle Sound and Pamlico Sound are fed by several important river systems, including the Chowan, Roanoke, Perquimans, North, Alligator, Bay, Pungo, Pamlico, and Neuse Rivers. This vast network of waterways forms the second-largest estuarine system in the nation. The warmer winters and easy access make the Pamlico Sound one of the greatest fishing destinations an angler could ever find. Not surprisingly, fishermen from all over the
country travel here to experience this unique and beautiful fishery.
