In this research paper I will be discussing the difference between summer and winter fishing. I will compare the two seasons with each other, and also try to establish if there are more factors that influence the fish than just hot and cold water. Richardson (Richardson, 2014) wrote “Water temperature affects survival because it is directly related to the physiological limits of fish, and also influencing predator risk and food availability.”
Introduction
In my family there is always a discussion going on whether it’s better to fish in the summer or in the winter. I went and did some research and I want to share a few points with you. I need to know if there is more to the weather (hot and cold) that we don’t know about that’s influencing

Fish are cold blooded animals. Their body temperature is regulated by the water temperature. As the water temperature cools down, from outside factors like pressure systems, the fish go through a biochemical change. Their metabolism will slow down and it affects their feeding behavior. With their metabolism slowing down, they will metabolize food more slowly, lessening their need to feed all the time. It will seem that the fish will bite a lot slower in the winter, compared to the summer, but if you don’t mind the cold, the fish is there to catch. According to Brett (Hartis, 2015) “5 Reasons why winter fishing is better than you think” Harris gave his reasons as followed: 1- The pressure is virtually gone. (most people stay away from the water) 2- You keep cool. (dress in layers, strip down as it gets hotter) 3- Bait, Bait, Bait. (birds can be an indication of fish) 4- Diversify your catch. (try to catch different species) 5- This is the time to scout. (walk around the fishing ground, get the best
In the past, because the glaciers disappeared slowly can make people have a low temperature, clean water during the summer, but at the same time the salmon begin and end their lives. With temperature getting warmer and our glaciers melting, every stage of salmon’s life cycle is getting hurt.
Distribution – The fathead minnow is a stream fish, able to tolerate a wide range of environmental conditions including high temperatures, low oxygen levels, and high turbidities. The species seems to be most abundant in small streams where competition wi...
There are two things that should be considered in bass fishing, which are, the bass location on the lake or river and bass catching using different techniques, presentations and baits.
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
Fishing has been around for centuries, it has been a tool for survival as well as a competitive sport that people love. In the present day, fishing is still loved and practiced as a favorite activity and a pastime across the globe. Unfortunately, fish species are being threatened by the amount of illegal, unreported, and
Water salinity up to about 5‰ is tolerable by common carp. However, based on the occurrence of common carp in in brackish-water estuaries, backwaters, and bays, there are some reports on the common carp living in brackish-water marshes with salinities up to 14 ppt in southern France and on capturing common carp in waters with salinities as high as 17.6 ppt. in USA. Even the best growth of common carp is obtained when water temperature ranges between 23 °C and 30 °C, fish can withstand higher water temperatures and can survive cold winter periods.
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.
As explained by Rosenzwig, “We are already seeing major impacts of climate change on agriculture: droughts leading to crop loss and salinization of soils, flooding causing waterlogged soils, longer growing seasons leading to new and more pest pressures, and erratic weather shifting harvesting seasons” (854). We know agriculture and fisheries are highly dependent on specific climatic condition. Increases in temperature and carbon dioxide can be beneficial for some crops in some places. But to realize these benefits, nutrient levels, soil moisture, water availability, and other conditions must also be met. Changes in the frequency and severity of droughts and floods have posed challenges for farmers and ranchers. Meanwhile, warmer water temperatures are likely to cause the habitat ranges of many fish and shellfish species to shift, which could disrupt ecosystems. Overall, this climate change has made it more difficult to grow crops, raise animals, and catch fish in the same ways and same places as we have done in the
Crappie Fishing Tips : Trolling for Crappie While there is certainly more than one method that can be used to catch crappie, one of the most effective techniques is trolling. There are several variations of trolling, but it basically involves a baited line being drawn through the water while the fisher sits in a moving boat. If trolling isn’t done properly, the day can turn into nothing more than a boat ride. Take note of the crappie fishing tips here that will make your crappie trolling as successful as possible.
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.
Every wondered what makes a fish tick, or what makes them want what you're throwing. Well don`t wonder any longer because the topic I have chosen to cover is about this very thing. Anglers around the world have always wanted to catch the biggest fish but never knew why they was able to catch the big ones. The topic I have chose to write about is a topic that not alot of people care about because it has something to do with the science behind catching fish and most people just want to catch the fish, not learn why they can catch them. So this paper will be focusing on why you catch fish specifically focusing on bass.
Many people see hunting and fishing as the slaughtering of innocent animals for no reason other than sport and fun. However, the truth is, hunting and fishing are beneficial to people, environments, and the economy. Hunting and fishing are beneficial to the economy because they cause a major economic impact. Hunting and fishing are beneficial to environments and people because they reduce damages done by wildlife overcrowding. Hunting and fishing are also beneficial to people because they provide a healthy, affordable source of food.
Conclusively and strongly stressed to the naive freshwater fisherman, freshwater fishing can shockingly differ from saltwater fishing. Successful freshwater fishing is allowed by simpler and more practical means, including a wider range of lure selections, limp and simple line, and the lightest of gear. It has minimal demands on fishermen and equipment. Saltwater fishing, on the other hand, surely does not.
Somer organisms are better adapted to live in certain temperatures so the water temperature must be monitored. Also, rapid changes in the water temperature can cause problems for the organisms in the tank so the water should be kept at a steady temperature to keep the fish in a stable environment with plenty of oxygen. Lower temperatures are able to retain more oxygen. Our fish can live comfortably from 68-82 degrees fahrenheit.
