In my research on the Osprey I found that it has such unique characteristics that it has been given its own taxonomic genus, Pandion, and family, which is the Pandionidae. An Osprey gravitates towards shallow fishing grounds because they are unable to dive more than about three feet below the water’s surface, therefore, their habitat includes almost any shallow fish-filled waters, such as rivers, lakes, reservoirs, swamps, or marshes. It is the only hawk on the continent that eats almost…

Now to transition from aquacultures detractions into a potential situation that would be very interesting if it were to take place as it goes along with the topic, benefits of aquaculture. It is fairly obvious in the past decade that Bighead, Silver and Black Carp have become a serious annoyance to the many residents of the Mississippi River basin.

Fishing Trip My mother always said that it was better to ask for forgiveness than for permission. One day me and my friends decided to go this illegal pond at my girlfriends dads work place. Did we have no where to fish in the first place? No, we have just been bass fishing at our pond for so long we all decided to try to find another one to fish at, and Sabine Coal Mine was a great place. For one, all the ponds there were stocked with bass from top to bottom. Second these ponds were so…

readers can use this information and guess that the fish must be at an old age. It would be different if Bishop said that the fish was old because then you couldn’t see why the fish was considered old. Bishop described that the fish has five old fishing hooks stuck in its’ mouth and they swayed and frayed, “like medals with their ribbons” (62). The fish won the fight of being caught five times and all five hooks had grown firmly in his mouth, showing again the age of the fish. Because of the…

No one wants to spend hours cleaning and prepping a boat to be able to go fishing. Ideally we would like to be able to throw the gear in the boat and take off. This can be accomplished if we had the forethought to purchase and use a boat cover to prevent the dirt, debris and even insect & animal nests from becoming a part of our boat's interior over the winter months. Any type of maintenance takes away from the fun we want to have on our boat. So what types of covers are there for the boat?…
