CHECK OUT SOME OF OUR SPEAKERS:

Mike Able Sr. and Ralph Phillips have fished Charleston for 50 years and were among the first fishing guides in the area. Today's anglers idea of fisheries abundance is relative to their own experiences.  Ralph and Mike will relate stories and experiences of what the abundance used to be, and maybe can become again. This panel will be moderated by Tommy Braswell, a veteran sports and outdoors journalist and fishing legend in his own right.
