Congratulations Winkleman Lee 👏🥳
🎣 Exciting News for Coastal Angler Magazine – North Carolina Edition! 🎣
We are excited to introduce Lee Winkleman as the new owner of Coastal Angler Magazine – North Carolina Edition!
With new leadership comes exciting opportunities, and we are looking forward to expanding the magazine all up and down the beautiful East Coast of North Carolina. Our mission is to showcase everything that makes our coastal communities special—from our world-class fisheries and incredible captains to the outstanding hospitality and local businesses that make North Carolina such a unique destination.
We are excited to partner with local businesses and captains to help tell the stories of our coast while providing valuable exposure through the magazine. Businesses interested in advertising will have access to some great promotional incentives as we continue to grow our reach throughout the region.
We are also excited to increase community involvement! Each month, we will select a Catch of the Month from photos submitted on our page to be featured in the magazine. In addition, we will be highlighting Junior Anglers, recognizing the next generation of fishermen and women who share our passion for the water.
This is an exciting new chapter for Coastal Angler Magazine, and we can’t wait to grow alongside the communities we serve while celebrating the people, businesses, and fisheries that make North Carolina’s coast so special.
If you are interested in advertising your business in the magazine, or if you are a captain interested in contributing a monthly fishing report, please reach out to Meagan Hopkins, Director of Marketing. We would love to connect with you and help showcase what makes our coast extraordinary!
We look forward to an exciting future and thank you for being part of the Coastal Angler family!
