Around Holden Beach, North Carolina, shrimp are known as "bugs," and the men who catch them for a living are "bug hunters." During their many visits to Holden Beach, Richard and Barbara Kelly grew fascinated with the distant sight of the shrimp boats and their simple dance upon the sea. Finally, they got a chance to meet the shrimpers. They were invited aboard the boats and regaled with tales of life on the water. They met the workers at the local fish houses, along with the Holden Beach boatbuilders, who fashioned hundreds of crafts without ever using a blueprint. But they also learned that the Carolina waterman is an endangered species. This is their tribute to a hard-working people they have come to admire.
