Tips for Salt Water Fishing

Fish detect a meal in three ways — by scent, sound and movement. Fish use sound to communicate and find prey. Since sound travels faster through water than through air, fish can hear friends and food or saltwater lures that are a long way off. Scent is another powerful weapon for fish; they can pick up one particle of scent and use it to hone in on prey, communicate danger or navigate through the water.

Fish actually have a sixth sense that humans do not. The lateral line running down each side of a fish is filled with tiny hairs that can detect movement in the water. A fish can pick up a moving object, such as a fishing lure or bait, even in complete darkness. Just before it strikes, the fish will use sight to check out its victim. Even in clear water, fish can only see about 15 feet, but they can see colors and shapes. Finally, a fish will use its highly sensitive sense of taste to verify that what it has eaten is actually edible. To fool a fish, you must first fool all of its senses.

Live Saltwater Fishing Bait

When trying to trick a fish, nothing beats live fishing bait. Live bait may be hard to catch and hard to keep, but it's hard to beat when targeting finicky fish. Whether you catch live bait with a hook or a net, avoid touching the bait before putting it on the hook. The live well in which you store your bait should simulate current, oxygen content and temperature of the bait's natural environment. You can transport bait short distances in a bucket with a battery-operated aerator. When fishing with live bait, use the lightest hooks, leader and line possible to avoid further stressing the fish. Passing the hook through the bait fish's lips, eye sockets or nostrils will allow it to swim most naturally. Hooking the bait in front of the dorsal fin will encourage the bait to swim down. For delicate bait fish, tie a bridal out of rigging floss to hold the hook.

Hi my friends,

thank you all for your kind comments to my post a day ago. I had no time yesterday to post anything, it was a pretty busy day for me. But I'm back now and I hope you enjoy reading this one about salt water fishing. I'm not a fisher at all, I have just captured that guy at Cocoa Beach recently, while he was trying to catch some living baits. It took him long to get something out of the water - it's looks like that's something that people only with a big patience can do. I'm not one of them...*smile*...

Have all a wonderful day and Sunshine to you!

In case of...

A tsunami (津波^?) (English pronunciation: /(t)suːˈnɑːmi/)

is a series of water waves (called a tsunami wave train) that is caused by the displacement of a large volume of a body of water, such as an ocean. The original Japanese term literally translates as "harbor wave." Tsunamis are a frequent occurrence in Japan; approximately 195 events have been recorded. Due to the immense volumes of water and energy involved, tsunamis can devastate coastal regions. Casualties can be high because the waves move faster than humans can run.

Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other underwater explosions (detonations of nuclear devices at sea), landslides and other mass movements, bolide impacts, and other disturbances above or below water all have the potential to generate a tsunami.

The Greek historian Thucydides was the first to relate tsunami to submarine earthquakes, but understanding of tsunami's nature remained slim until the 20th century and is the subject of ongoing research. Many early geological, geographical, and oceanographic texts refer to tsunamis as "seismic sea waves."

Some meteorological conditions, such as deep depressions that cause tropical cyclones, can generate a storm surge, called a meteotsunami, which can raise tides several meters above normal levels. The displacement comes from low atmospheric pressure within the center of the depression. As these storm surges reach shore, they may resemble (though are not) tsunamis, inundating vast areas of land. Such a storm surge inundated Burma (Myanmar) in May 2008.

Hi my friends,

today we are learning something about Tsunamis. I have photographed the sign above at one of the pretty beaches here at the Space Coast in Florida. I've discovered recently that sign and for seconds I had all those sad pictures in my mind we got to see on TV, when that catastrophically big Tsunami hit Myanmar in 2008. And I realized in seconds, that it can happen here the same too, anytime. We hope and pray it will never happen!

Thank you my friends for all your wonderful comments to my "Wordless Sunday" yesterday, and for all comments ever. I'm happy you like my photos.

I wish you a wonderful day and as we say here in Florida:
Sunshine's to you! See you....

Susanne

Abstract Reality

Color is for me the purest form of expression, the purest abstract reality.

The Blues Brothers

are a Grammy Award-nominated American blues and soul revivalist band founded in 1978 by comedians Dan Aykroyd and John Belushi as part of a musical sketch on Saturday Night Live. Belushi and Aykroyd, respectively in character as lead vocalist "Joliet" Jake Blues and harpist/vocalist Elwood Blues, fronted the band, which was composed of well-known and respected musicians. The band made its debut as the musical guest on the April 22, 1978, episode of Saturday Night Live.

The band began to take on a life beyond the confines of the television screen, releasing an album, Briefcase Full of Blues, in 1978, and then having a Hollywood film, The Blues Brothers, created around its characters in 1980.

After the death of Belushi in 1982, the Blues Brothers have continued to perform with a rotation of guest singers and other band members. The original band reformed in 1988 for a world tour and again in 1998 for a sequel to the film, Blues Brothers 2000. They make regular appearances at musical festivals worldwide.

Hi my friends,

Thank you so much for your comments to my Shuttle post. The Shuttle did not went off also at the next day not, because of some valve problems. But I'm sure you all have read that online already or heard it in the news on TV. It's cold coffee already, right? :)

I met today the Blues Brothers, believe it or not - as a statue sitting, molded into chairs in a used furniture shop...yes! I had to make some portraits of them, I always liked them :)

Have a good time, stay with me - your comments are very much appreciated.
Susanne
