How To Change Fishing Line Water, sunlight and stress all factor into the deterioration of fishing line as they will wear and break down the line over time. If fishing line absorbs water, this will cause it to stretch and weaken. Some lines may be resistant to water and are not affected by it. The ultraviolet rays from the sun can also cause the line to lose strength as well. These factors will negatively affect the fishing line gradually and affects may not be noticeable until it is too late.…

et al, 2000). Changing deployment and retrieval practices such as deploying longlines at night time or at different water levels of the water column increases selectivity during the trawling process(Hall et al, 2000). Fishermen can be trained on fishing methods and conditions that help them avoid high bycatches (Hall et al, 2000) Areas where high bycatches usually occur can be closed or period during which high bycatches occur can also be closed (Hall et al, 2000) Fishermen can also be…

Not only is water one of the key parts of life but it is the home to many animals such as fish and crabs of course the ocean is home to alot more animals but the lakes and rivers are just as in portinten they are home to a lot of animals such as bluegill and catfish the lakes and rivers are 0.0081%of the earth's waters which is a really really really small small amount the oceans make 96.8%of the world's water which is really really big amounts of water the only bad thing about that is that it…

Another example for over fishing is the business. The business takes the fish by pounds they sent out boats or ships to catch fish. They could catch about thousand pounds of fish each day or other weeks. As we people or business people take lots of fish out from the sea we don’t give them chance to repopulate more fish. Another reason for overfishing is people eat fishes we take them out of the sea by the numbers and when the next person goes out fishing there will not enough for…

longer -- why. Just as with any kind of fishing, efficiency often makes the difference in fish caught at the day's end. I find it hard to understand why some anglers will go through all the effort buying expensive livebait, and hauling all that gear out on to the ice only to not thoroughly check their tipups every 15 to 20 minutes; all day long. Once you're out there, all your money and time is wasted if the effort is carried through with your actual fishing rigs. Take the time to…

decreasing, and causing fishermen to adapt to different species of seafood or end their fishing career. Since the turn of the century the amount of cod in the waters between Nova Scotia and Massachusetts has decreased by over 75% (Horowitz,2015). This decrease has been blamed on the strong fishing community in the Northeast, overfishing being the main reason. Due to this, several experts believe that cod fishing will be nothing more than a past time in the coming years (Russell,2013). This…

The article by PHYS.ORG (2014) was written about the new dolphin species of Victoria, Australia, called the Burrunan dolphin. This species was recently discover by Dr. Kate Charlton-Robb, 3 years ago, in 2011 (PHYS.ORG, 2014). Although not a lot is known about them, there is a concern surrounding the conservation of Burrunan dolphins (PHYS.ORG, 2014). The population size of the species is very small and according to Dr. Charlton-Robb, for each region there are less than 100 dolphins that can…

In the story The Bass, The River, and Sheila Mant by W.D. Wetherell a young boy learns his lesson to not go for older women and instead to do what you love.

You told him to leave you alone, but you were foolish to think that he would listen. Even with a fishing rod over your shoulders, determined to get a peaceful afternoon rest with your feet dangling above the furious river currents and the red bobber floating atop their violent surface. The rumbling of the water, spraying over your pants and shoes sporadically, would be enough to drift you to sleep as you sat across the mossed rocks. But he was at your heels. Struggling to capture your…

Commercial overfishing is a problem that is often discussed and scrutinized, with improvements made to fishery sustainability and methods of practice. While this may be considered progress, few species suffer the same peril that the sharks of our oceans do. Sharks are the apex predators of our waters, and if we continue our ways we run the risk of threatening our entire oceanic food chain. One may ask how this has become such a real possibility, and the answer is both simple and disturbing –…
