I am currently a member of several meetup groups in the Charlotte area cause those are the most active groups with the most members. The main …

Welcome and aloha! Stand up as been around a while but is taking off like crazy here in greater Charlotte area.

In fact, most of us so far in the group are new to the sport.

OK, so you love fishing on Lake Norman and Lake Wylie. Unfortunately, if you're like me, unless you're on a boat, you seldom catch anything. Fishing from a boat would increase your odds by 75% or more. Owning a boat isn't practical (nor affordable) for most of you (us). The few boat clubs at the marinas offer a more affordable option, but it's only worth it if you plan on spending a lot of time (with family and friends) on the lake for 8 months out of the year. Solution? Lake Fishing Boat Club! …
