second lesson learned was that very often assuming is not a good practice. But they were there now so I went back to leave the guitar and jacket, and then ran back full of excitement towards the fishing crew. I was going fishing! Really fishing for my very first time and my hope and my desire for a good fishing adventure was at the max, the picture of it was clear in my mind and I was projecting it outward. The adventure that day, out on the boat with the fishermen, turned out to be the most…
crankbait softly hit the surface of the water. I waited a few seconds, suddenly I saw my line move so I jerked my pole upward and yelled, “fish on”! My dad quickly grabbed the net to land the fish. The slimy, brown, 4lb fish was my first catch of the day. Last summer my dad and I went to Green Bay, WIsconsin for a fishing trip. This was my first time going there so I didn't know what to expect. The reason why I wanted to go Sturgeon Bay was because it is rated the number one smallmouth bass…
Introduction Fishbanks Simulation is a resource management simulation created by Dennis L. Meadows. Teams play the roles of fishing companies in the simulation and compete with each other, dealing with the variations in fish populations and catches for the purpose of maximizing the net worth. Given three ships and same bank statement, each team has an equal start to make decisions about selling, bidding, and ordering ships, as well as the allocation of ships in harbour, coast, and deep sea.…

Logging, agricultural practices, poor hatchery practices, commercial fishing, climate change, and pollution are just a few of hundreds of other reasons that have caused salmon to decline. Logging may not seem to have a large impact on salmon considering trees grow on land and anadromous fish live in water, but it does more…
ocean water each year depending on the climate and seasonal changes. These species are very important species as prey within the marine system. It is known that in the early 1970’s there use to be very large catches of river herrings within the fishing industry…
and once past Yakking Mouth it discharges its clear waters in spectacular fashion at Fayrelady Falls. Tis a sight for sore eyes to behold such wild, foaming torrents - I courted my dear wife there and it's a good spot for trout. I usually commence fishing at the foot of the falls, and then make my way downstream until I reach a most dastardly stretch known as Snagg Bottom. It was on passing one of the more challenging straights thereabouts that I chanced upon Wilbur Wilberforce, an angler of…
In addition to the argument that new laws are harmful, some believe that they are completely unnecessary. Since 1988, the amount of fish caught around the globe annually has been dropping (“The Threats”). Scientists believe the sustainable amount of fish able to be taken from the ocean each year is between 110 million and 150 million tons (“Overfishing 652-654”). The current annual global catch is 90 million. The number of boats in New England waters has decreased from 1,200 to 580 since the…
up in valuable life lessoned learned, especially when you are trapped in a boat, battling six-foot waves. First, Jerry Saum has always been a man who does not like to sit and be lazy. Instead, Jerry urged Steve Hartwig, my dad, and myself to go fishing on an extremely windy day. We all piled in the Silverado, Jerry making jokes and telling stories, most of which follow the guidelines of “What happens up North, stays up North.” During the thirteen-mile trek to Red Lake, Jerry talked about how…
