Trophy Bull Drum Fishing Trip

This event featured GEO’s Adaptive Recreation Coordinator, Chad Hooks, GEO’s Fundraising Director, Michael Fussell, and GEO’s President, Drew Blake, targeting Spanish mackerel off the beach of Emerald Isle, North Carolina. The original idea for this trip was to target trophy drum with Captain Austin Goodwin in the Cedar Island area, but the weather had other plans Friday night. Saturday morning the group launched their boat from Osprey Oaks Marina on Highway 24 in Newport. They started the morning with a 12 mile run to the mouth of Bogue Inlet. Those of you that know Bogue Inlet know that it can be a bit sporty when the wind and tide are bucking each other. And this morning it was. Our crew went out the inlet and settled the boat down around the bell buoy to get a read on the seas. Once everyone was settled in, they made their way to…

Archery Deer Hunt

2022 Archery Deer Hunt The 2022 GEO Archery Deer Hunt occurred across several properties that are spread throughout Alamance, Person, and Orange counties in central North Carolina.  Due to funding issues our event participants were heavily reduced to allow funds to be reallocated for the October rifle camp.  Josh Tabor was flown in from Rutland, Vermont to try his luck at an early season whitetail buck.  Josh hunted exclusively with Drew Blake over 3 days and shared time bonding with Drew and his family.  Meals were prepared by Drew's wife, Sarah, and consisted of venison pasta, breakfast quesadillas, and fried catfish with traditional southern sides.  This was Josh's first experience with catfish which he seemed to enjoy.  Josh and Drew hunted in areas known to produce monster North Carolina whitetail bucks with trail camera photos leading up to the event proving just that.  The pair hunted out of preset Barronett…

January 2023 Duck Hunt

Drew Blake, President, and Michael Fussell, Fundraising Director, hosted a Marine veteran (Daniel Smith) for his first duck hunt on January 12-15, 2023.  The trip began under less then ideal conditions with Michael suffering a catastrophic boat trailer failure less than halfway through his trip down.  Drew and Daniel started the trip with a roughly 3 mile kayak paddle up an eastern North Carolina river.  They finally got to their hunt location around 8:30am and set up the spread.  Shortly after setting up a huge flock of resident geese made swing though no shots were fired.  After a long paddle back to the dock with sporadic scouting along the way Daniel and Drew enjoyed a dinner at a local restaurant before enjoying a night by the campfire at the Air B and B that they rented for the weekend. After calling everywhere possible, Michael decided to load up his brothers…
