What lure for bass in the summer?

You may feel that it isn't "sporting" to do so, but the easiest way to catch really big largemouth bass in the summer is with live bait. Use Jumbo or Brooder shiners (5" to 10" long) hooked through their back behind their dorsil fin with a small diameter hook such as those used to catch Croppie ( white perch, sac-o-lait, crappie.....all the same fish). Use no weight, a slip cork that will go no deeper than 18", and fish prime feeding times....early morning at daybreak and late evening just before dark. I say you may not consider this sport, because it's so easy it's almost like "shooting fish". I actually just had great luck with a deepwater, 2 oz jug, red and white with a long feather tail. CAst vertically as far out as you can into deepwater, and bounce it slowly across te bottom. It was great. Happy times.

Best live bait for bass fishing?

I use bonita strips or whole depending on size of shark I am after also a fresh caught bluefish is very bloody and oily and they make good bait also.If fishing off a boat fresh makeral or barracuda chunks work very well!AnswerMostly what I've been doing is taking a cast net near a jetti and catching the small pompano fish and small king fish as they get caught in the waves. Then hook them up and try and get them to bleed a little. There is spot on their undersides between their gills, if you take a knife and just open that up a little they should bleed (they don't have to be dead, in fact it's almost better if they're a live, they give off a signal that shows they're wounded). Then just wade out a little and cast just off of any structure you're around. Sit back and wait and they should come.

Sharks are not only very endangered, but most species are dangerously high in mercury content and are thereby dangerous for human consumption. Perhaps look to something else to catch. (reefannie)

Is sustainable development good?

Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

In other words, we have to live our lives (using water, electricity, coal, oil, fossil fuel, carbon dioxide, greenhouse gases) in such a way that our children and our grandchildren and all the generations coming after them will also have the same chance of living a sustainable life.

It follows then, that we have to make serious changes to our lifestyle in the very near future, or there will be a very unhappy future for our children and grandchildren. We cannot keep going the way we are.

The Bruntland Report (1983) was the first publication and recognition of what the popular term "Sustainable development". It outlined 4 key figures. The main focus being "meeting the needs of the present without compromising the needs of the future".

It also talks about social justice, futurity and economic growth.

A:Sustainable development can be defined as a development that meets the needs of the presents and still take the future generations in minds. A:A sustainable development is a where economy, society and the environment all balance out and can agree with each other so that it is fair for everyone. A:Sustainable merely means that you can keep it up for generations. It is normally used with reference to the environment. As an example, cutting trees for wood is sustainable if you don't cut trees more quickly than they grow back. If the rate of cutting is higher than the rate of growth, there will at some point be no more trees - this is not sustainable. The same goes for hunting, fishing etc. - a sustainable rate is one where there will still be fish when our grandchildren grow old. A:In the context of industry, sustainable normally means that the industry doesn't pollute so much that people eventually won't be able to live or grow food in the area. A:
  • Sustainable development means development without sacrificing the needs of the future generation.
  • Sustainable development is an organizing principle for human life on a finite planet. It posits a desirable future state for human societies in which living conditions and resource-use meet human needs without undermining the sustainability of natural systems and the environment, so that future generations may also have their needs met.
  • Refer to link below for more information.

Sustainable development refers to development that can continue over a long period of time. Sustainable development takes into consideration environmental issues and embraces conservation. Sustainable development is when the use of resources by humans is aimed to ensure the sustainability of the environment while meeting human needs.

What is the best weather for bass fishing?

"Fish like cold, wet weather. They like it when it rains. At these times, the fish are more active, so they bite more. When it is hot outside, the fish are less active."

That is completely wrong. it all depends on water temperature, Ph levels of water, moon phases,spawning times,feeding periods,surf,tide,cover and density of fish population,and thermaclines.

I am a professional bass angler, and have done extensive studies of fish habits and there interaction with the environment around them.

Without a doubt the easiest time to catch fish is when they are spawning. When this is happening, hormones in the fish rise about 2 times the average amount, they become more territorial, more aggressive towards other fish in the ecosystem, and tend not to lay up in cover and wait for a bite to eat but rather find food.

The best weather that supports this is what the fish are accustom to spawning in, and that can range from cold water, to very warm water, depending on the fish you are trying to catch.

But for an average fisherman, good knowledge is , a few hours before a storm, or in a slightly over cast day, depending on the fish. Dusk fishing, can rep good benefits also, as well as morning. But it is best to know how to present your bait, and how to locate the fish that will help the most.

How do you put a float on a fishing rod?

The one I tie most often is the Improved Clinch Knot. Easy to tie, and if tied right, the more the fish pulls the tighter the knot gets.

Some people prefer the Palomar knot. It is one of the best knots you can use for mono 100% knot strength. I have used this knot for years and never had it slip or break at the knot......Highly recommended. The Palomar knot is a great knot for sure, but not for crankbaits. It can make the bait saw off to one side or the other.

How do you catch nightcrawlers?

Type your answer here... two ways I know of... first way, on a damp night, go out to a nice grassy area, tread softly as they can feel you coming, use a flash light to find them stretched out in the grass and quickly grab them near the back end, they usually are mostly out of their hole, but the back end is still in for escape. Second way, use a pitch fork or similar multi tined tool and stick it into the ground most of the way. Use a steady, rocking back and forth motion, not too much, like a foot each direction from center. The worms feel the movement of the tines in the dirt and crawl out onto the surface.

What are the physics in fishing?

When you cast a lure, it follows a somewhat parabolic curve. It's not a perfect parabola because of air resistance and the drag of the fishing line. When you have a fish on the line, it creates tensile forces in the line. Some lures float, while other sink, which demonstrates buoyancy. In strong currents you may have to switch to heavier lead sinkers in order to "hold the bottom." This demonstrates frictional forces. The heavier weight has greater friction with the bottom, so the force generated by the current bumping into it cannot generate enough force to move it. A lighter sinker would be moved by the force of the current. If a boat is trying to travel due East but is traveling in a current going due North, the actual path of the boat will be something between due East and due North. This demonstrates vector addition and shows how velocity is not just speed but direction, as well; in other words, velocity is a vector quantity.

How old do you have to be to get a fishing license in PA?

In PA, you can get a learner's permit after passing a written examination when you reach your 16th birthday. This allows you to drive with a licensed adult passenger in the car. At 17, you can obtain a junior license and drive solo, but there are hour restrictions, such as not after midnight, unless you have valid reasons to be on the road that late, such as employment. 18 is the legal age for an adult license and you are then a fully vested driver without restrictions.
