The Worm-Train Theory: A Satire On Evolution
Did evolution begin on Long Island?There is overwhelming evidence suggesting that if you incubate three dozen worms in a solution of amino acids and carbon compounds for approximately one and a half million years they will eventually evolve into the Long Island Railroad. The only problem with this theory is that if this were true some species of fish would have a natural tendency to ride the Long Island Railroad. But fish have never actually been observed commuting between Long Island and Manhattan.A group of enterprising archaeologists, however, found the missing link to this apparent puzzle. Digging through the ruins of an old Long Island Railroad yard, they came across a fossil of a fish believed...

Fishing The Power Drop Shot Rig
Most people believe that the drop-shot rig is only for finesse fishing, but there is more than one way to skin a cat! (or Fish), as the case may be. The new Power Drop-Shot style started by Kotaro Kiriyama, is fast becoming the way to bigger and better bags on many of the tournament trails.Drop-shot rigs consist of a hook tied above a sinker that is placed at the end of the line so that the lure suspends off the bottom. Conventional tackle consists of light action spinning gear and 4-8 pound line, and the tactic is usually deployed vertically in deep water.Kiriyama says "Drop-Shotting is about presenting a soft plastic lure in a manner that is different from Texas rigging or Carolina rigging." When...
Some of the baits I have used for used for CATFISHing here on the Ohio River are, chicken liver, minnows, shrimp, Spam, French Fries and more.Fresh chicken liver works better than frozen liver that has thawed out. It does get bites however, cats peck at it so by the time you pick up the rod they have cleaned the bait off the hook. My experience is the fish swallows the bait more often than getting hooked. The biggest drawback is keeping the bait on the hook when casting from the bank. Trying to get a long cast with chicken liver is very difficult. It seems like half the time the liver will just fly off the hook with any forceful cast. This is no problem if you are fishing from a boat, just...

Ultra Light Fishing - I Bet you Don't Know What...
So you think you have done ultra-light fishing- I bet you haven't. I say that because of my trip to the World Championships of fishing in Coimbra, Portugal where I learned the true meaning of ultralight. When I fished against 185 anglers from 37 different nations, I learned that ultralight meant line that is around 1/2 pound, fishing a hook the size of an eyelash, using a bait the thickness of 2 eyelashes - ultralight !Ok, so you have not fished ultralight, I win the bet. When I fished in the World Championships, I too thought a little 4' ultralight with 4 lb. test or wow, 2 lb. test was the stealth way to fish. This was quickly dispelled as I fished local competitions with 1 lb...
Has anyone had the experience of getting to your favorite trout stream, wading out into the water, then reaching into one of your pockets to add a couple of split shot to your line, only to then realize that you don't have any with you! Son of a bit.......!!!! This is no fun. Having your fishing equipment stocked up ready to go is paramount to your enjoyment. One of my mottos is, "if you think you have enough of whatever type of terminal tackle that you may use, add one more package." For most of my river fishing excursions, I will almost exclusively use, split shot sinkers, swivels, gang hooks, and live bait (mostly worms). That's really all of the fishing gear that I need with me, but I...

Trout Fishing Tips
Trout fishing is fun way to enjoy your free time and it can be very rewarding to your diet. There are many places that you can catch trout around the USA. Salt water trout are abundant and do not really require much different equipment than the normal rod and reel found at any sporting goods store. They are usually small, so light tackle is more than adequite. Fishing lines with a low pound test are best because they won't be visable underwater. The best place to find them is in shallow rivers or the flats in small bays. A spinner is a great lure to use instead of live bait because it is easy and effective. However, night crawlers are a cheap live bait that last days in a styrofoam container...

You have most probably heard of this quotation that goes something like, "If you want to know the value of one second, ask the athlete who came in second place; If you want to know the value of one minute, ask the worker who missed his train to work."

While we're waiting for the bus, train or taxi, we get some free waiting time. Whether we're singing or cursing as we're trapped in...

Some people may think I'm talking about some "airy fairy" new age subject when I title my article - How To Catch A Rainbow - but that's not what's going on here. I'm speaking of the beautiful Rainbow Trout. Otherwise known as a rainbow for short. So how does a person go about catching a Rainbow? That's what we're going to discuss here.For our purposes I'm not writing about the "darts" that we all know and love. A dart is a stocked trout. We've all seen them. All of their fins have been rubbed off from swimming in a tank with so many other fish. It makes them all but finless. And they thus resemble a "dart". The other name that fits these genetic anomalies well is "finless wonders". In any...

How to Hook the Big Fish!
Fly Fishing is a passion of mine and I enjoy sharing my tips so that others can learn to catch the Big Fish!I usually go out from the Boca inlet in Boca Raton, Florida. Then I drift for hours luring the fish. As much as I enjoy catching the fish I truly enjoy the peace and quiet of the ocean. It certainly does clear the mind from the hustle and bustle of life.When the species of fish I am searching for aren't hungry for the flys that I present them then I use conventional tackle. That may consist of either live or dead bait. Then I go out to the desired depth to where the species of fish congregate. Usually starting with a depth of about 110 feet of water and drifting out to over 200 feet. I...
In my opinion, the most important thing to remember while river fishing is not to spook the water that you're about to fish. I've seen entirely too many anglers do this very thing. For example, they'll wade 1/4 of the way out into the river and begin fishing. Thus leaving themselves standing in the very water they probably should have fished first.The first tip is: When river fishing, remember to work the area that you want to fish in "sections". Don't just jump in and start fishing in the spot that you think looks the best. And don't just fish the water directly below where you're wading. Make your casts into the current then let your live bait or lure flow with the current until it is...
Fishing etiquette, sometimes I have to wonder if anyone's ever heard of such a thing. The word etiquette is defined as: The forms required by good breeding, or prescribed by authority, to be observed in social or official life; observance of the proprieties of rank and occasion; conventional decorum; ceremonial code of polite society.So why is it that as soon as I get on a river, I invariably end up fishing near someone who has never heard the above definition? It seems as if as soon as people get into a fishing situation, all rules of society are thrown out the window and it becomes a free for all. I mean it says, right in the definition, 'ceremonial codes of polite society'. When it comes...

Rap music originated as a cross-cultural product. Most of its important early practitioners-including Kool Herc, D.J. Hollywood, and Afrika Bambaataa-were either first- or second-generation Americans of Caribbean ancestry. Herc and Hollywood are both credited with introducing the Jamaican style of cutting and mixing into the musical culture of the South Bronx. By most accounts Herc was the first DJ to buy two copies of the same record for just a 15-second break (rhythmic instrumental segment) in the middle. By mixing back and forth between the two copies he was able to double, triple, or indefinitely extend the break. In so doing, Herc effectively deconstructed and reconstructed so-called found...
How to fish
Since fish aquariums have toxic buildup from natural and unnatural sources, it is important to have filters added to your aquarium to prolong your fish's life. In all there are a couple types of filters, which include the biological filters and the chemical/mechanical filters. How biological filters work?

Now, you may see that ammonia and nitrites are toxic, yet fish adapt well to nitrites since the toxic converts to non-toxic.
