Derek,
I'll echo Dustin's response and add that you're welcome to join us here in SC anytime we go collecting.

Hi Derek,

There are a couple of very good books for NC. Menhenick's Fishes of NC and
Rohde, et al.'s Fishes of the Carolinas, Virginia, Maryland and Delaware are
both excellent. They are also both available for a decent price-in-
jonahsaquarium.com .

As far as what is required for collecting there, I believe just a valid
fishing license. I am not certain of the net or seine requirements though.
I do know they have a screwy rule about all sunfishes being gamefish though
so be careful when collecting Enneacanthus and maybe even Elassoma species.

Maybe Moon or Fritz can clear this up a bit for you.

whats a good fish book for the central North Carolina area? or for the
whole state? the South Eastern region?

Also, does anyone know what's required legally to collect here?
nonprotected species of course. I've read alot of the NC Wildlife Resources
site and haven't got a clear understanding of what it says.

thanks,
