HOLDEN BEACH, N.C. (AP) A shore-based shark fishing tournament on the North Carolina coast has been rescheduled after coastal officials expressed concerns about the event's impact on tourism. Event organizer Marty Wright said fishermen could fish for sharks from Ocean Isle Beach to Oak Island, and that participants would only be using baitfish dropped from kayaks about 300 to 600 feet (91 to 182 meters) offshore, WWAY reported.
