Decades ago, herring shacks dotted the shores of the Roanoke River. From January to April, people would come from all over to eat herring cooked in the shacks.

Currently, state regulations prohibit the taking of herring and most of the shacks are in ruins. But Country Rover Tom Skinner found one eatery where time has stood still.
