The Fried Fish At Carolinas Fish Camps That Built A Community SFA

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Southern fish camps have been serving fried fish with hushpuppies, coleslaw, and french fries for decades now. Starting as shacks on river banks, the fish camps grew in popularity among local textile mill workers. Although the textile industry would eventually be outsourced, the fish camps continue to be an important part of the community

I grew up eating at river view fish camp off Wilkinson BLvd. I remember the old pirate with his wooden leg that would greet all the children. Gosh I miss those days. Today's younger generation are not into dining on hard wooden benches and tables. They want better ambiance and bigger menus. Sadly, fish camps are dying out due to this and people are much more health conscious today.

Do you think it is a vain hope that one day man will find joy in noble deeds of light and mercy, rather than in the coarse pleasures he indulges in today -- gluttony, fornication, ostentation, boasting, and envious vying with his neighbor? I am certain this is not a vain hope and that the day will come soon. NOT IN MURICA!

Thank you for this lovely revisiting of Carolina history. I am a transplant to North Carolina and a foodie. I love learning about food traditions and this is just awesome. No need to pay any attention to the nasty comments in this feed. They are just jealous that they don't get to eat this wonderful fish dinner more often!

I'm Indian American and watching this video, I don't see just white people like most of these commenters here, I see families enjoying a good fish dinner together, with affordability. That is what is wrong these days, everyone jumps to race so quick, jeez, enjoy the video.

This video is basically. Picture of the restaurant. Picture of another restaurant. Picture of another restaurant. Picture of another restaurant. Man's face. Food. Picture of another restaurantOPEN sign. The end.

Generous portions of fried foods at a low price is a big contributor to the obesity epidemic. Wash it all down with a gallon of sweet tea and now you have diabetes. This is not a good 'tradition' to have.

This dude waxes poetic about an era of segregation & lynching like it was a jubilant period in history when things were right. Very disappointed in Eater but not surprised.

wow, what a history of how fish camps were so vital to the community. Amazing to listen to hardworking stories. Love from India. Will visit in future with my folks.

These kinds of videos are so good. I learn so much about other people through their food and what it means to them. Would love to eat at those fish camps someday!

What a huge decline of fish camps in the Carolinas! 'Tis how people lose their jobs evidently for unemployment. They must've been bankrupt with the government.
