| Fishing is an ancient practice that dates back to at least the beginning of the Upper Paleolithic period about 40,000 years ago. Isotopic analysis of the remains of Tianyuan man, a 40,000-year-old modern human from eastern Asia, has shown that he regularly consumed freshwater fish. |

Tip&Trick Description 1:
MEAT STOCK CUBE CHEMICAL LURE
This started off by being an applied science project in school linked to fishing for predatory species. I am happy for anyone to try it out. It takes some preparation but is worth the experiment. You can use it for river, lake or sea fishing from a bank, beach, pier or boat. Use the strongest line you have for dragging. Have a camera to get evidence of your catch.
First get your meat stock cubes the red varieties are the best imitation of the fluids that leak from wounded prey. They are much cheaper if bought in the large boxes and cost even less if you can get them put on someone elses shopping list.
You also need a pair of tights or stockings so ask nicely particularly if someone is wearing them at the time!
Cut the tights/stockings up into 10cm (4in) squares and put them onto a flat surface.
Take the foil wrapping off of each stock cube being careful not to crumble it and place one centrally onto each square of the tights/stockings.
Tie the four corners of the material together into a firm knot a test of your dexterity you may need to use bigger squares at first and trim them up afterwards.
Then tie a length of line inside the knot of each lure bag leaving plenty of spare to attach to the eye on your lure. Store your bags in a waterproof and crushproof container.
When you are ready to fish attach a bag to the eye of your lure making sure that you tie the knot so that a used bag can be easily removed from the eye but cannot slip off during movement underwater. A pair of fine scissors will useful to do the cutting during bag changing. Dispose of used bags and line responsibly please not into the water or onto the site.
Keep safe wear a lifejacket if you are fishing on or by deep water. Keep yourself warm and waterproof. Do not fish on your own it is safer with others. Let someone know where you are going and have a means of contacting him or her.

WEEKLY FISH COUNT

WAHOO: ONE FISH KEPT (#35)
FLY HOOKER FISH REPORT FOR MAY 23, 2004
This was the second day of fishing for Jason Thompson and his buddies Rory and Bill. Again, we had to fish another boat as the Fly Hooker was still down (will be ready by tomorrow). Today we headed to the 95 spot where the surface temperature was 72 degrees and the water was reported as nice and blue. It was! There were about 6 boats working the area and we did see fish, in fact, I almost ran over two Marlin during the trip! We had a couple of strikes that did not hook up and tried to slow troll live bait in the area, but the bait pump had stopped working for a while and the baits were in pretty sad shape. It was almost a the end of the trip, after working the area very hard, that we had a good hit. It was a Wahoo of about 35 pounds and there was fish for dinner once again! Thanks again guys, I am sorry we could not get you hooked up to a Marlin, but perhaps next time.
FLY HOOKER FISH REPORT FOR 27 MAY, 2004
Bo Whitehead and friends Ryan and Adam are fishing with us today and tomorrow. Bo is a fly fisherman and wants to get a shot at a Roosterfish on the fly. My fingers are crossed since the wind has been blowing so hard, but they also want a day of regular offshore fishing. We decided this morning that today would be the offshore day in the hope that the wind lays down for tomorrow. Juan and Manuel ran inside up the Sea of Cortez to the Red Hill area then worked out to the Outer Gorda, the 1150 then to the 95 spot. The wind was howling almost the whole time but they did hook up to a Sailfish for a short while, and had a few shots at Marlin, none of which really wanted to eat. Rough water, one guy sick; lets keep our fingers crossed for tomorrow!
FLY HOOKER FISH REPORT FOR 28 MAY, 2004
Today it was just Bo and Adam on the boat, as Ryan was still recovering from yesterday. The wind had not died down this morning, but they still gave the Roosterfish a shot for about 20 minutes. Bo decided that there was no way he was going to be able to cast a fly in the wind so they went ahead and headed off shore. I am not sure they actually got there, but the intention was to go to the San Jaime. I think that the water was rough enough that the idea was cancelled and they just headed south. Anyway, they ended up getting a nice Dorado of about 25 pounds, Adams first. Fish for dinner! Bo, when the time is right, it will happen, just keep trying.
