I was there in the dark ages 1972-1974..3 to 1 girl/boy ratio,so yeah, I did some trolling on dry ground, but never lost sight of that fishing..hit Nags Head or Morehead at least every week, caught all the stuff you mentioned plus a few buttloads of Blues and the omnipresent flounders ( starving college kids, we even kept and ate whiting!)
Many of my memories are blurry too...but the soft feminine southern accent still makes me stoopid too...
