Three Lures
While concluding my data for the three lures, I found data that could be useful and help other fishermen in the sport of fishing. The science behind fishing is environmental, chemistry, and physics. The majority of fishing anglers are knowledgeable to science in the sport of fishing. Due to history and past experimentation the experiment of Gulp, live bait, and frozen bait illustrates the concepts of environmental, chemistry, and physics.
While fishing for founder the best bait to use is an artificial also know as “Gulp”. The gulp is and rubberized lure that can absorb scent that is put in the gulp for flounder. The Science behind gulp is the scent that is put into the rubber lure. The scent of the lure is a chemical that triggers

The best kind of frozen bait is shrimp me personally, but other have theories on how to catch them. “Fish might not be the cutest animals, but they are critical for the health of our ocean and coastal communities. Across the country, we’ve made meaningful progress towards ending overfishing and rebuilding vulnerable fish populations. And we have a little-known law with a long name to thank: the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA).” Scence the beginning of time, the people who fished in the older time period, they fish by hand. The hand fishing Is called “Noodling”. While the men go and hunt for the dinner for the village, they have another way of getting meat if the hunting on land does not work out. If the meat from the land does no appear the water meat will come in need and feed the people who need to be feed. Some years past and the invention of the Fishing pole come to. While people who noodled there meat struggled, the people who stuck some bait on the end of a sharp rock and caught multiple amount of fish. Soon after the invention of the pole the invention of a lure called “Artificial Bait”. While the bait was in production the positive way of using this was to catch more fish and have a fishing limit for any kind of fish species. “ Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are
Bass fishing, at present, is considered as America’s number one freshwater sport, its industry is in fact seventy percent higher in growth compared to other types of fishing activities. Bass is a fish that belongs to the Serranidae family or sea basses and the Centrarchidae or the black basses. This family of perchlike fishes are large and oblong with compressed bodies that dwell in warm and temperate seas throughout
Two friends go out for lunch to their usual favorite sushi restaurant. They are seated and given their menus, they knew they were going to get their usual but noticed the prices have increased. Prices have gone up, and some replaced with imitation fish meat, since the last time they ate there. What might have caused this? Due the demand of fish, the price for them also increases. It’s a simple supply and demand logic, but not only is it due to the demand for these fish, it can also be due to their rareness. Over-fishing can cause what is rare and which fish species isn’t. Commercial fishing may cause fish species to go extinct, or bring in new types of fish to take the place of the other fish. In tuna we
People used a lot of different methods to catch fish. Different people use different methods and believe that their method is the best or is the most ethical. Commercial fisherman and the native methods both have their similarities and their differences. Both have been effective. Native Americans for the most part used homemade tools from the resources that they had around them. Flint, bone and wood were some of the natural resources used by Native Americans for their equiptment (Primitive Fishing Tackle). Tools like spears, hooks and gaffs, nets, and weirs were all used by Native Americans for nothing more than catching fish and maybe some other aquatic life. The hooks and gaffs were generally carved from bone. A gaff is bigger than a hook, but gets lodged in the fish once it takes the bait on it. Spears were nothing more than a wooden shaft with a sharp tip (Nickson). The tips were generally carved from bone, flint, and sometimes metal. Three pronged tips were used on smaller fish so it would increase their chances of hitting the fish (Spear Fishing- Native American Way to Survival). Lines with hooks and fish traps were also used to catch fish. The natives used leather and vegetable fibers as line for their hooks an...
#2 - Bass Jigs: Bass spend a good portion of their time in cover or near natural protection where they pay close attention to the bottom for food. A Bass jig, properly sized and bouncing just right, makes it extremely hard for a bass to ignore. Getting them out of cover to simply look at the lure is a feat unto itself but when you get the bouncing just right each hop screams "eat me, eat me" and they
A vastly used type of bait that many anglers use is dough bait. Dough bait is a soft and usually sticky type of bait. You roll pieces of bait into a ball and kneed it onto the hook making sure no hook is exposed. There are a lot of different types of dough bait for all different types of species of fish and conditions. Dough baits that are made for catfish usually have a very potent and putrid smell, since catfish love smelly baits. Dough baits that are used for trout often have
You're planning a vacation to Hawaii and want to do some fishing while here. If you're planning to hop on a charter sport fishing boat or some other commercial offshore excursion, you don't have anything to worry about except for showing up at the dock on time.
Over the years, as the world has evolved, fishing methods were improved as well, and, especially from the 20th century, several changes had forced the way the fishery was done in North Atlantic. As world population was increasing quickly, the cod demand has grown tremendously. New technologies were introduced and thus catch rates of northern cod began to exceed the hazardous limits of the stock’s ability to rebuild. This fact summed with another that will be shown below led to the cod collapse in the Atlantic Canada by the 90’s.
Any unnatural scents on your hands will transfer to your bait or lure and cost you bites. You always want to make sure that your hands are free of any unnatural odors. There are a couple of remedies to this bass fishing mistake. The first is to always use odor neutralizing soap the day before fishing and the second is to simply grab a handful of dirt and rub it into your hands before baiting up ( or leaving the dock).
Fish protein has been a mainstay for the human diet for centuries. However, aquaculture, which is the practice of raising fish such as salmon in controlled conditions, as opposed to the commercial fishing industry, which is procurement of wild fish from their natural environment, made its debut in the United States as a commercial enterprise in the late 1970’s according to the Eco - Justice Marketplace Project.(n.d.). This mode of salmon procurement began to develop in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century, as a response to the declining populations of native wild fish such as salmon and trout.
It is believed that these darkly colored baits encourage a bass to make a clean strike that helps to easily set your hook in the fish. So the next time you are out fishing in a clear lake or stream, consider using a dark bait or lure if you are seeking to catch bass.
Since the start of time, humans have been catching fish. The sport has, in many ways, evolved hugely, and yet in many aspects has stayed exactly the same. To me fishing is unique and I find it can be anything from relaxing to a very intense experience.
2. Fish in moving water. Fish face into the current, so cast in front of them so that they see your bait.
One of the most commonly used fishing lures is the classic "wounded minnow" lure. Its design allows it to resemble a minnow, or other small fish, that has been recently wounded and can barely swim. The effectiveness of this lure is evident in its length of past use and the continued production of the lure today.
Just as in any other sport, understanding gives rise to advantage and success. As serious fishermen, we had dedicated much thought to understanding the fish, hypothesizing their behavior. One understanding we had already gained through previous experiences was that fish readily eat the prey that is normally available. This, we concluded, was a sort of defense against fishermen and their foreign lures and was acquired through the fishes’ own previous experience of eating a lure. In applying this understanding to our fishing, we performed a routine food chain analysis to find out what our lures needed to imitate. The results were that the part of the food chain just beneath our quarry consisted mostly of small fish such as anchovies and young yellowtail, smaller than those shad and bluegill normally eaten in freshwater ponds. To compensate for this difference we would have to use lures smaller than those we were used to using. Luckily we had some.
Fishing contains a wide variety of physics. when you cast you are using projectile motion and rotational motion. when you hook a fish it will often use the drag from the current agenst you. Immagine draging a fish through a swift current. You deal with the tention of your line, and the friction of the line through the guides. you also deal with friction when you use a drag.
