Crabbing and Hunting on Currituck Sound
Currituck Sound in the northern Outer Banks provides a year-round bounty of seafood and game — and for two local fishermen, it's a beautiful way of life.

If you wanted to fish or duck hunt in Currituck County and its namesake sound, you needed to know the man who knew the water. For visitors a long way from home, that man was Frank Carter, a beloved, trusted sporting guide for almost 50 years.

In the early to mid-20th century, North Carolina was a popular hunting destination for wealthy sportsmen. Among the many hunting lodges they built in the Piedmont, Fairview Park stood out for its luxurious amenities.
