In 2014, we kicked off the Cape Lookout Albacore Festival with a Thursday "Healing Waters Day" Event. Boat Captains/Guides/Albacore Junkies donated their time and took Project Healing Waters participants out on their boat for the day. Many of these participants had never been saltwater fly fishing, much less albacore fishing. With the help of the captains, these disabled vets got a good dose of false albacore fishing with several caught on fly. We finished up the day by getting together for dinner and fellowship at Amos Mosquitos in Atlantic Beach.
This years Healing Waters Day will be held on Thursday October 22nd. We are looking for about 20 captains to donate a long half day of their time to captain a few vets on their boat. If you have the day open on your calendar and would like to help, let us know. In your reply, please let us know what size boat you have, if you can guide 1 or 2 anglers, and if you can provide your own fly equipment.
