A good show demands a repeat 

 performance. 



That's why Sea Grant and the Car- 

 teret County Waterman's Association 

 are hosting the seventh annual N. C. 

 Commercial Fishing Show March 14 

 and 15. 



Last year, more than 4,500 people 

 attended the boat and gear show at the 



Crystal Coast Civic Center in More- 

 head City. 



Even more are expected this year 

 for the show that will feature boats, 

 engines, electronics, fishing gear and 

 accessory equipment. And workshops 

 and seminars on various fisheries top- 

 ics will be offered. 



The 1987 Commercial Fishing Show 

 will be held at the civic center off of 

 U.S. 70 in Morehead City. 



Dealers and manufacturers inter- 

 ested in securing a booth at the show 

 may call Sea Grant agent Bob Hines at 

 919/247-4007. 



Last year Sea Grant published a 

 brochure/poster that listed the sche- 

 dule for the 1986 saltwater tournament 

 season in North Carolina. By popular 

 demand, Sea Grant plans to publish 

 this list again. 



But we need some help. 



If you are a tournament director or 

 sponsor, we would like for you to send 



us some information about your tour- 

 nament. We need to know the full 

 name of the tournament; the date it 

 will be held; a name, address and con- 

 tact person for the sponsoring organi- 

 zation; and any other pertinent infor- 

 mation (such as a new eligible species 

 category). 



Please send this information to Jim 

 Bahen, Sea Grant Marine Advisory 

 Service, P.O. Box 130, Kure Beach, 

 N.C. 28449. Or call 919/458-5498.
