Fishing techniques

This man made, twenty foot high stacking of boulders and concrete make for an ideal fishing hole. I have caught two of my biggest fish at this spot, one was a bass weighing five and a half pounds.

Everyone has differences, which isn’t always a bad thing. Everyone in the canterbury tales, is different in their own way, appropriately or not. I have decided to compare the Miller, whom I named Jake, and the Shipman, who I named Michael. There are different from their looks, to the way that they care (or don’t). Jake, has a big mouth and is not very cautious in his decisions. He is definitely one of the strongest on the trip due to his big bones and his strength. His appearances including…

I sat across from him, not daring to look up. I stared at my fishing pole, dipping it in and out of the water like a fish flopping in and out of the ocean. The vibration on my lips distracted me from the situation at hand. The rain pounded on my fisherman’s hat, like a shower of bullets. I began to hum. A monotonous tune.

It says “Gone fishing” with a red, and white fishing bobber on the first G that has my grandpa’s birthdate, and date of death on it; then on the last g has a fishing hook. The I’s are dotted with flowers lastly a heart connecting the gone to the fishing. It is between my shoulder blades and doesn’t reach my neck. The reason it is on my back is so I don’t have to see it and get…

One thing you will need is a reel. There are two recommended reels, the bait caster and the spin casting with the spinning reel the most popular among anglers fishing for small to medium fish. These reels have a fixed bearing which tends to be slower. The fixed caster reel is a faster reel with a thirteen gear that allows for more of a fight with the fish.

Of today’s many important environmental issues, sustainable fishing must take top priority to ensure vital future oceanic resources. If we discount sustainable practices, we are ignoring our world’s largest resource. Over 70 percent of the world is covered by water and as a nation, we consume 4.8 billion pounds of seafood (NOAA, 2016). We cannot afford to waste resources that are well within our power to save and conserve. We have many organizations that conduct aquatic research on our…
