The Northwest Coast’s main food source was salmon, thanks to the Pacific Ocean they had plentiful amounts of it. Fishing was usually done in the summer, and stored for the winter, but they were able to fish all year long. Although they did eat and catch other aquatic animals, including whales, salmon was the easiest to catch and the most convenient to store for long periods of time. The Pacific Ocean supplied the tribes with fish, crab, seaweed, whales, mussels, some sea mammals, and fish oil. The people had many methods of catching the fish, the most drastic one was by using harpoons. In order to do this, they had to stab the fish while in a canoe and put the fish in the storage section. This proved to be more useful when catching larger fish such as swordfish, or blue tuna. The most effective method of catching salmon was by using large nets shaped like a V to catch hundreds of fish at a time. This was very useful because one thousand fish could easily feed a family for a whole year. Another way fish were caught was by using traps, most commonly a weir was used. A weir is a structure built in the water typically out of either wooden poles or stone, and is used for catching the fish as they swim in the current. The fishers would use hooks made out of bone and wood to catch fish as well. This was very helpful because they were able to catch whatever size fish they would like. The bigger
Use the proper gear. Try to use a medium - medium/heavy pole. You want a pole with good backbone to pull the bass out of cover, but not so lightweight that you set the hook or land the bass once you have got the strike. Try to use a reel with at least 3 ball bearings. You do not have to spend a fortune for good tackle ,but remember if you go too cheap on your tackle, you will lose fish.
A closed face is about the easiest then it is an open face then a bait caster is the hardest. They a pole each one has a different purpose a closed face is really hard to get tangled and a open face you can get tangled easy and it is the same with a baitcaster. It is also good to know the laws about fishing and you do have to buy a licence every year to go unless it is on private property. When you are fishing in a boat you should wear a life jacket and don’t break the law if you are in a public
The Great Outdoors. A place where one can get many of life’s necessities. Some of life’s necessities are provided through hunting and fishing of different types, such as fly fishing and deer or bear hunting. That does not seem inhumane. Well, some think it is and these actions do not sit well with them. Some may choose to go to a grocery store and pay for the things that are processed, rather than going and getting the freshest, free version of the same thing, in their own backyard. In cases like these, those who choose this method are not keeping any animals alive by doing so. They have to be killed first to get to the grocery store anyways. Even with that being said, many would see killing an animal to use as food as the cruelest thing a
The prospect of what equipment to use can be quite intimidating to a new fisherman but the key is to slow down, take a deep breath and think about the equipment logically as it really is just a matter of common sense. It really is a case of attaching the right rod to the right reel, to the right lure and hey presto you are fishing. Bass fishing lures come in all shapes and sizes ranging from brightly colored plugs which are used attract bass, to spinners which are three hooks which spin to imitate a propeller motion. It moves quickly through the water so can impersonate a small fish darting through the water.
After telling you about bass habitat and prey, I will tell you about what gear you need to catch them. First I will talk about a rod and reel setup. I like to use a Pflueger special edition

The fish at Swartswood Lake are stocked by the Hackettstown Fish Hatchery. In the spring of 2007 Hackettstown Fish Hatchery set up nets at Neldon Brook which leads into Swartswood Lake. “The Hackettstown crew began their walleye broodstock collection season on April 2nd when they set one Pennsylvania and two South Dakota-style trap nets in Swartswood Lake near the mouth of Neldon Brook” (Lemon).

The nets at the mouth of the river collected a “record of 352 adult walleye were captured surpassing the old record of 320 captured in 2004” (Lemon). “According to the Division of Fish and Wildlife website,
Today I woke up pretty early for a summer day, around 7am. I walked downstairs and asked my dad if we could go fishing today. He said yes and suggested that we get ready to leave. I got my fishing pole, fishing net, and my extra fishing pole string. While I was getting my stuff my dad called his friend Jimmy and asked if he wanted to come as well. He said yes, but he will be coming later. I brought my fishing stuff to my dad’s car when I realized he brought his old fishing pole out. I asked him, “Why are you bringing that fishing pole?” I only asked this because it was over 15 years old. He said, “This fishing pole is really good for catching bigger fish.” I didn’t argue with him simply because it was his fishing pole. We left our house around

What are Totem Poles? Totem Poles are further than just carvings. They are stories that contain personal meanings and must be represented by symbols and animals. The Poles, were first made by the Northwest Coast Haida, Tlingit, and Tsimshian Indians in Southeast Alaska and British Columbia. You are going to read my totem pole, my story.
A totem pole is a colossal log carved mainly by the indigenous people of Alaska and British Columbia. These poles tell stories that have been passed down from generation to generation as legends and myths. However, that is not the only type of totem pole, there are totems that tell the carver’s history, their family’s history and a few are even used to honor the dead. Additionally, multiple totem poles were made to show respect to important tribal members. Totem poles feature animals and symbols, chosen by the carver to represent themselves, another person, or an event. I have chosen to construct a totem pole to represent my qualities and personality. My totem pole will feature a deer, a fox, a monkey, and a cat.
When local flies are living underwater, typically just after hatching and during the immature phase, fishermen should use a wet fly. Wet fishing flies are meant to go under the surface of the water. Most wet fly bait will sink on its own, quickly and effectively, but a sinker may be added to the line to increase weight if necessary.
