peterk814 is on a distinguished road
1. From what i gather all the AJs in NC have worms other than the smaller ones in the 10-20lb range which are edible.

2. The nice thing about the carolinas is and from wilmington the blue water is only about 20to30miles out. You see weed lines often on the way out. Mahi are usually present at some point during the day when you are drifting or anchoring up for grouper/ajs

AJs are fun to catch but it does get old, grouper jigging is much more challenging in my opinion and much more rewarding when you actually hook up to a monster. i was happy to catch AJs but after the first few I regretting spending the money i did on special jigs/rods/reels just for AJs as they will readily take many of the cheaper jigs.
