Frequently Asked Questions

1. QUESTION:
   Where can I go creel fishing in Scotland?
   I want to go creel fishing (with the cages for lobsters and crabs and such) but I don't know where I can and if I can hire everything, does anyone know anything about this. Also do I need a license to go on the boats?

   • ANSWER:
     No you do not need a licence unless you plan to sell them, if it just for personal use then you can creel fish to your hearts content. As long as it is not for fish but for crab and lobster, it comes under the fisheries act 1984.
     you will not find anywhere to hire them but each pot(creel) costs a couple of pound and you will find them for sale second hand in the likes of the press and journal, oban times etc.
     depending where you are I would recommend the west coast from oban down to southend on either side. there are plenty of places to get a mooring, just get in touch with one of the many marinas, there will also be private ones just get in touch with the estates.

2. QUESTION:
   sea fishing, what and how am i allowed to catch with Line, net, creels ?
   is there a set of regulations i can read ?
   in scottish water
   north east scotland.

   • ANSWER:
     Yes, and aside from national controls, they are further complex on the State level. Goto DNR pr more specifically department of game and wildlife website and check the specific state guidelines.

3. QUESTION:
   diy fly fishing creel?
   Looking for instructions to make an old fashion fishing creel from willow, birch, etc...
   jest looking to do something for hobby work.

   • ANSWER:
     I just use an old fashioned bucket made of plastic.

4. QUESTION:
   How long can you leave fish in a creel before they go bad?

   • ANSWER:
     It depends on things like the kind of fish and the outside temperature. If it's 100 degrees, you'd better get the fish on ice in a matter of minutes, but if it's 35 degrees, you can keep the fish fresh all day as long as they don't dry out. Trout seem to lose quality in a hurry, though if it isn't too hot out they'll be good for 2-3 hours, while panfish will last longer.

5. QUESTION:
   How's fishing on Devil's Lake in March?
   We're planning a BIG fishing trip the first weekend in March this year for 12-14 people (8-9 fishermen) and are wondering a) will the fishing be okay, b) will the ice be okay, and c) are there any spots on the lake that we can hit without paying a professional guide through the nose to bring us to? We are coming from central Minnesota (5-hour drive), and want to make this a fun outing for our group of friends but still manage to catch a few decent fish. We are planning on staying at Woodland Resort on Creel's Bay, so with pop-ups and snowmobiles would like to stay pretty close.....though we're willing to drive around the lake and hop on a different access if it's worth it. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. QUESTION:
   Wooden Floor For inflatable Fishing Raft?
   How Could i Make a Wooden Floor to put on the bottom of a Sevylor Fish Hunter 280? Could i just buy one?

   • ANSWER:
     http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_37053____SearchResults

     The sevlor fish hunter has such a thin wall on its vinyl that putting a wood floor in it would risk rupturing it don't do it.

     If you want a hard bottom boat and still some what inflatable upgrade to the built in hull models. Like Zodiac

     http://www.inflatableboats.com/

2. QUESTION:
   anchor for my inflatable fishing raft?
   How heavy should it be, im thinking about using a rope+brick

   • ANSWER:
     How big is the raft?

     A ten footer needs just between two and five pounds maybe.

3. QUESTION:
   Inflatable raft/kayak/canoe for fishing. What is the best choice?
   I am looking for an inflatable kayak/canoe/raft to use for fishing local rivers and lakes. I don't have enough space for a hardshell, so I've been looking for inflatable dinghy type boats, but one that is elongated so I can paddle alone or with someone. Also, I want hard seats to sit on. I found a Saturn prototype on ebay, but have been unable to find a similar model. Price limit = 0. Help.

   • ANSWER:
     i have almost the exact same problem right now. Im leaning toward a canoe that i found on the sports authority website that is for 0. They also have many inflatable rafts but im afraid that they will pop. check out that site and maybe Dicks for some cheaper boats. Hope we can find what we're looking for.

4. QUESTION:
   Is there any inflatable rafts that are dependable?
   I have this little lake me and my brother fish at and we catch great fish but there's this spot in it you can't reach with a cast so we need a inflatable raft one time we went on 1 and caught the biggest fish we ever caught and were looking forward to doing that again so any good blow up rafts you know

   • ANSWER:
     Andee I cannot give you the exact name of an inflatable, but I can tell you what to look for. You don't want one of those shiny plastic toy type, you can drown in it! You want a raft that is covered with sturdy fabric to protect it from fish hooks, your shoes, etc. And you want one that has multiple air chambers--the more the better. That way if one gets punctured, the others will keep you afloat.

     There are also personal fishing float tubes. It's like a big inner tube with a mesh harness. You wear it around your waist with a pair of waders on and bob around upright so you can fish. You wear special kick fins and propel yourself by kicking with your legs. It has pockets and straps to keep your gear in. You can get one at BassPro with a pair of kickers for about 0. Check it out at http://www.basspro.com/White-River-Fly-Shop-Lost-Lake-Open-Front-Float-Tube-Combo/product/10200385/-1570905

     Make sure you check your state boating regulations to be sure you can use said crafts on said water. And wear your PFD if you get a raft. Even if you don't drown you don't want to get busted!

5. QUESTION:
   Am I allowed to launch an inflatable raft is NYS Park waters?
   I know that in NYC only canoes and kayaks are allowed but I was wondering if I can use my Sevylor Fish Hunter raft in NYS Park waters such as Jones Beach State Park, Captree State Park and Bear Mountain State Park. The NYS DEC doesn't outright say they aren't allowed but doesn't seem to mention anything about inflatable rafts either. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. .

   • ANSWER:
     Hello,

     NYS Parks and Recreation does address dinghies, kayaks, and canoes. You're boat will be classified as a non-mechanically propelled vessel according to the regulation.

     I cut and pasted a portion of the regulation here;
     "The following vessels are exempt from state registration requirements:
     vessels operating commercially with either a U.S. or foreign
     document; vessels legally registered in another state (up to 90
     consecutive days maximum); lifeboats (not including tenders
     and dinghies); competition race boats; and non mechanically
     propelled vessels."

     You can get the whole booklet here; http://nysparks.state.ny.us/recreation/boating/documents/NYSBoatersGuide.pdf

2. QUESTION:
   building my own BLS maybe ALS medical kit. Maybe for first responding or whatever I want. Need Suggestions?
   I'm building, well actually adding on to, my medical kit. Currently it is a fishing tackle box (haha pretty organized though) but im goign to buy a medical bag preferrably a backpack (any suggestions for the backback?, ). i've been using galls.com and remotemedical.com searching for things. i plan on becoming a paramedic, and maybe a citizen first responder, I know nothing now but I'm goign to start training soon. i wan't to be ready to save lives or just help small injuries. I want something to keep in my car (so im not sure what would go bad in the heat, maybe pills?) that way it is always a few steps away from where I am. I plan on goign all out eventually slowly adding things, I want to get an AED eventually, but for now I want things liek hemostat, bloodstoppers, I have the basic first aid items in mind but feel free to add simple things liek triple antibiotic ointment in your list. thats what I want a hug elist of things to include in my bag. BVM, hemostat, anything you cna think of. also I want it in a backpack because I want to join a SAR team and be able to have all of my stuff with me. I wan't a pack that can carry thing sliek IV access kits 9even though Im not certified to use thes eI want a bag that has enough room for it fo rwhen I do get certified. Include things that I would need training for as well...I wont buy or use them until I am trained to do so but Id liek to have them in mind. Thanks for everything. please people who know wha tthey are talking about
   to the guy who said I was a nut job; I take now offense to that but I didn't mean I was getting an IV Kit without training I meant If I get a nice backpack i want room so that way in the future It will fit that in it when I am trained in that field. And as far as AED i'll get trained in that at red cross or something I want one of them for family, friends etc. or whoever it may be. i will not use anything I am not qualified to use UNTIL i am qualified to use it.
   i take NO* offense.

   • ANSWER:
     Short answer- DON'T buy anything until you've been trained & authorized to use it. Having a fully stocked jump kit with an AED will be looked at as whackerish by those working & teaching in the EMS field.
     Long answer- When you join an agency you will be issued or told what equipment you'll need. Unless you are an experienced provider, showing up with your own gear will get you teased mercilessly, if they let you in at all. After you've been around for a while you'll figure out what you should carry. There are a few things you shouldn't carry-
     - AED: Unless you have someone in your home that is at risk for a cardiac arrest, you won't need one. They are also a prescription item and cost 00-00, not including items such as replacement batteries, pads, etc that expire in as little as 2yrs.
     - ALS Equipment (IV's, meds, etc): They require prescriptions and a physician's authorization to use. They have a limited shelf life and specific storage requirements. I know of very few agencies that allow their providers to use ALS skills off-duty. Getting caught with this equipment without authorization can result in criminal penalties and/or forfeiture of any professional certifications.

     What you will need to carry will depend on where you live. I personaly carry a fairly well stocked personal jump-kit, but I live in a rural area with 10-15min response times and may need to do more than someone in an urban area where help is only a few minutes away. Also when off-duty EMS providers are limited to BLS skills, this includes ALS providers.

     Once you've been around a while and have decided to get a kit there are several catagories to consider-
     - Airway/Breathing: CPR mask or BVM, oral airways, basic suction-> turkey baster
     - Bleeding Control: assorted bandages (4x4, 5x9), roller gauze (3"), triangular bandages, 1 multi-trauma dressing (optional), occlusive dressings (optional), burn sheet (optional)
     - Orthopedic (optional): board or SAM splint, cold packs
     - Misc: good flashlight, pen/paper, folding knife, kleenex, blanket, stethoscope, BP cuff (optional)
     - Infection Control: gloves, glasses, face mask, hand wash, biohazzard bag

     See also-
     http://www.policeposers.com/

     Edit: rita_alabama, I forgot to include this-
     "Basically, if I'm off duty and I see a car accident, I can provide BLS care, but I can't perform ALS skills such as IV access and intubation."
     You may want to check with your medical director about the following. In NYS there is a specific, limited set of conditions in which an off-duty ALS provider can perform ALS skills up to their training level while ASSISTING responding units. To do so BOTH of the following MUST be met-
     #1- The off-duty provider must be using ALS equipment from a unit (i.e. flycar, ambulance, fire apparatus, etc) that has responded to the scene in an offical capacity.
     #2- The off-duty provider must be either-
     - 2A: At the discretion of, and under the direction & supervision of an on-duty ALS provider authorized to perform the skill (OLMC permission may also be needed)
     -or-
     - 2B: At the discretion of both the medic in charge AND OLMC, and under direct comunication with OLMC if no on-duty ALS provider is available or they are not authorized to perform the required skill
     For example-
     You come across a motorcyclist down and begin care. When the responding ALS flycar arrives you ID yourself and the medic says "I'll get the tube, you get the line." you can then do the IV under his direction.

     Also under FAA regs you can also practice ALS onboard a commercial aircraft using their equipment, at the discretion of & under the direction of their ground based medical control doctor.

   • ANSWER:
     If you are planning on keeping fish you might want to bring a stringer and a plastic bag to put the fish in on the way back. They also sell soft sided coolers (small ones) that would keep your fish( or food and drinks ) cold. Might want to bring a cell phone in case of emergency.

3. QUESTION:
   Need title of Twilight Zone-ish movie or TV show from 80's based on scene...?
   I remember the beginnning of a movie or TV show in the 80's (1st of 3 parts i believe) where a man is fishing on the shore of a lake. All the sudden, a shiny apple appears next to him. He looks around but does not see anyone that it could belong to. He takes a bite and begins to chew. A fishing hook becomes embedded in his mouth and a line leading out to the lake begins pulling him toward the water. The man struggles to get free, but ultimately is pulled underwater. After a brief pause, a brand new apple is thrown from the lake and lands on the shore for the next unsuspecting fisherman.

   Does anyone know the name of this show/movie? I thought that it might be the Twilight Zone or Amazing Stories, but I couldn't find anything.

   Thanks!

     I think that was Amazing Stories. I vaguely remember it but, dont recall any details.

   what do yout hink?
   lol thanks but this is not an advertisement.. DO NOT feel like you have to go see the site.. I just want feedback on the statement
   So maybe I should summerize it and put the whole thing on the about us section? This way gets them interested but wanting more...

   • ANSWER:
     Much too long. Cut it to a single paragraph, 3-4 sentences, maybe with some 3-5 word bullet points beneath. Save the details ( media coverage, big names, sponsorship) for those sections of the website.

     Most people who surf the web who don't have the patience to be "jumping from site to site looking for the information" also don't have the patience to read a 600-word "mission statement".

3. QUESTION:
   What are the best flies to tie for fishing the south branch of the Ausable in Michigan.?
   We will be fishing around Memorial day. We will be fishing the south branch to avoid the fishing pressure of the "Holy Waters". This will be my first time going and am interested to see what the best flies to tie are.

   PS. I was looking more for dry flies but would love to hear any outstanding wet ones (want to catch fish). Fish on and thanks.

   • ANSWER:
     During spring, many of the hatching insects you'll encounter will be slightly larger in size than what you'd find during the fall through early spring.

     Late May is prime time for Gray Drakes, Brown Drakes, and March Browns. These are usually in the #10-12 range. Trout also feed on Red Quills and Hendricksons during May, and those run in the #12-14 range. Sulphurs (#16-18) should get going about this time as conditions start to warm up. And don't forget caddis; they're a staple through the whole season.

     To keep life less comlicated and the fishing productive and fun, I'd avoid worrying about matching the hatch. I'd take a few chunky patterns such as Humpys, Wulffs or Irresistibles to adequately represent the Drakes. A #14 parachute Adams should do fine for the Hendricksons/Red Quills. Light Cahills can do double duty for Sulphurs. I'd probably take a #16 in a parachute version for simplicity's sake.

     Be sure to take some caddis patterns. Since the trout will be well accustomed to seeing caddis by Memorial Day, this represents your best opportunity to take trout on dries during any time of day except when trout are briefly keyed in on a particular mayfly hatch in progress. There are many great patterns to choose from. I like Goddard Caddis for their ability to fish well in fast and slow currents. A palmered pattern such as a Henryville or EHC can skate nicely, too.

     You might find some terrestrial fishing opportunities. I'd take an ant pattern, probably a #14 or #16 black winged ant. This would fish well in the surface film or awash in the current. I wouldn't bother with beetles, since a Humpy will do double duty here. In fact, any of your Wulffs, Irresistibles or Humpys that you've brought for fishing as Drakes will get interest from terrestrial feeding trout. No hopper opportunities to worry about here at this time.

4. QUESTION:
   what knot to use to tie the fishing hook the the fishing line?

Frequently Asked Questions

1. QUESTION:
   fishing onshore ?
   can anyone tell me how many floats per yard should be used for drag net fishing on shore ?

   • ANSWER:
     it depends on how big your net is. but a personal net the floats should be about 1 every yard

2. QUESTION:
   Why did sailors of the old die from starvation when there was food all around them?
   couldn't they have just fished? dragged nets behind their ship? lowered small boats into the water for fishing? and don't tell me it's because they ran out of limes or other vitamins, there must be another reason. i'll appreciate it (translation: best answer) if you'll add a website to show me your info.

   • ANSWER:
     Fine, you ask a question and then say "and don't tell me any of those crazy facts, either, I know better." They didn't generally die of starvation, they died of malnutrition and disease, but of course you're too smart to fall for that.

   • ANSWER:
     This poem has had the opposite effect on me. After reading that I am going to find a rainforest and cut it down. I can't wait to be a lumberjack. I look great in suspenders!

4. QUESTION:
   Wasn't it just pure laziness for white settlers to own slaves instead of doing the work with their own hands?
   Doesn't this mind frame still exist today in things like factory farms and drag net fishing? Doing anything to increase short term profits instead of doing things for the long term benefits.
   End_ why don't you try answering the actual question.
   George forget you man. You actually defend slavery?
   Hardly anybody even answered the question asked. I said was it lazy for the white settlers to bring slaves instead of do their own work. That is the question.
   Hae Jung, I don't know about the whole bigger and stronger thing, there are big strong people of all races.

   • ANSWER:
     Do you people REALLY think that Slavery STARTED with the founding of the United States and Canada?

     Do you REALLY want to forget THOUSANDS UPON THOUSANDS of years of slavery because of the fact that in the last 300 years, the area which eventually became the United States and Canada had slaves?

     Doesn't it matter at all that Slavery is still taking place today? 2009... As you fu*king read this?

     Do you want to b*tch about what Black Americans have gone through?

     Why not put that energy towards topping the MODERN SLAVERY that is taking place in Africa right now?

     YOU, whatever you are, and Black Americans have not been slaves for many generations yet your relatives in Africa are still buying and selling slaves, both male and female, right this second.

     Until ALL African Slaves are free, you have NO RIGHT to b*tch about the supposed racism and slavery you have personally experienced.

     Both you and I can go to Africa RIGHT THIS SECOND and buy an Africa Child, male or female, for .00 in the boondocks and 0.00 in the more metro sections...

     Slavery is STILL LEGAL in a number of Middle Eastern Theocracies.

     There are an estimated THIRTY MILLION slaves on earth RIGHT THIS SECOND!

     How dare you b*tch about ANYTHING when you are free...

     THIRTY
     MILLION
     HUMAN
     SLAVES
     IN
     2009

     AS YOU READ THIS.

     ANYONE that B*TCHES and MOANS about past slavery while the human slave trade still exists should be ASHAMED of themselves.

     That number, THIRTY MILLION SLAVES?

     THAT DOESN'T EVEN INCLUDE CHILD WARRIORS...

     Children that are forced to take drugs and are beaten and brainwashed in to fighting wars in the names of their evil warlords.

     Africa...
     South America...
     Asia...
     The Middle East...

     CHILDREN across the globe are being mind-raped, drugged, and abused in all meanings of the word and forced to fight in a cause they have nothing to do with.

     The MALES are lucky... They are only fed drugs and mentally-raped... The GIRLS are drugged, mentally-raped, sent out to kill in the day time, then used as living sex toys at night back at camp...

     Those killed in the filed are the LUCKY ones...

     ANY American that thinks they have ANY IDEA what suffering is is delusional and should try being raped and drugged then sent out to kill and then see how fu*king great their lives in the US were.

     ANY American that thinks they have ANY IDEA what suffering is should go live in the Middle East for a few months... BE GANG RAPED if they walk down an alley by themselves then are arrested and sentenced to PRISON TIME AND BEATINGS by the state for putting themselves in the position TO BE RAPED by violating Islamic Virtue Laws.

     ANY American that thinks they have ANY IDEA what suffering is should go work in an Asian "Massage Parlor" on the east or west coast where women are held against their will and forced to have sex with men to pay off their passage to the US.

     ANY American that thinks they have ANY IDEA what suffering is should go try to be a kidnapped teen ANYWHERE IN THE UNITED STATES that is forced to prostitute him/herself by her pimp as they make "The Circuit" across the country... Being forced to suck off guys in rest stops or in motel rooms with 'dates' set up through Craig's List.

     If YOU, personally, have never been a slave, you have NOTHING to complain about...

     Truly... Please... Quit your b*tching and learn to accept your life as it is.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. QUESTION:
   I lost the biggest fish of my life (carp) ripped the hook off. How to tie 50lb line on hooks for carp?
   How do you tie a 50lb line on hooks for carp?
   The carp was bigger than 40 inches.
   I was pulling it out of the weeds (slowly). It swam everywhere and far. But, once it got to land my dad was pulling the line and the hook ripped off. Maybe we should bring a net next time? But how do you put hooks on carp.

   • ANSWER:
     Google the (Palomar Knot). This is easy to tie and very strong. The real benefit is that there are two thickness of line in the eye of the hook.

2. QUESTION:
   what are the best type of hooks for carp fishing?
   just wondering if you guys can give me any tips for the best type of hooks to be using when carp fishing?i had 5 carp yesterday all around the 2lb mark,but i lost a 12lber right on the bank!!!i am convinced it was because of the hook.i have only started coarse fishing this week,so far after three 5 hour sessions i have caught 7 and lost 4.

   • ANSWER:
     Gamakatsu G Carp Method hooks are the best (in my opinion), if you can lay your hands on them. This time of year, like Paul R says, use small hooks and thinner lines, like, size 6,8,10 hooks, 8-10 lb lines. You should remember though that you should always match the size of the hook to the size of the bait. Too small a hook may prevent a solid hook up if your bait is disproportionately large. I agree with Paul that hair rigs are usually safer in terms of hooking a fish.
     Good fishing.

3. QUESTION:
   why do yanks use trebbel hooks to catch carp??? are they that dumb and think they might hook 3 carp in one go?

   • ANSWER:
     I am not a yank, a colonist or a damn rebel either, but when the carp swallows th treble hook he tends to regurgitate the hook so that it is caught in his mouth and not buried in his stomach the result kills fewer fish and allows catch and release to be practiced if one wishes.

4. QUESTION:
   Best hooks to use for catfish/carp?
   What is the best size hook for catfish and carp?
   What type of hook? treble, live-bait hooks......?

   • ANSWER:
     I've always used Gamakatsu "Octopus" hooks in size 2/0 for Cats. I don't waste my time on Carp.

5. QUESTION:
   What is the best 'type' of hook to use for carp?
   Instead of people saying what size hooks only, could someone please tell me what type of hook is the best to catch carp? (octopus, treble, ....) and a link would be awesome!!!!!

   And also what size in that type of hook please

   • ANSWER:
     The most important thing is to match the hook pattern and size to the bait and method you are fishing. No good using a size 10 hook with a 30mm boilie, as it would seriously impair the hooking ability of your rig.

     For general carp fishing, I use a size 8 or 6 hook with an offset point. I rarely use barbless, unless the rules say I have to.

     I'll add a link below to an answer my colleague gave to a question on this subject a few years ago. All I would add is that make sure you get a good quality hook. As a youngster, I remember buying cheap hooks and having them completely straightened by carp. It's not a nice feeling, knowing that the fish of a lifetime just escaped because you didn't pay that little bit extra.

     Good luck!

     i've never lost a fish.

     there is a way to get the golden fishing rod (you have to catch all 40 typse of fish), but there is no such thing as bait.

3. QUESTION:
   Where, on line, can I buy an easy to understand, fishing knot tying book?
   I need some insrucktions, on how to tie a line to line blood knot!

   • ANSWER:
     I'm sure there are any number of knot-tying books, but knots are notoriously difficult to illustrate on the page. Unless you have a chance to look at the book to find out if you can easily understand the illustrations, buying a knot book is gonna be a crapshoot.

     I would go to your local fly shop (if you've got one) and ask one of the people there to demonstrate a blood knot for you. I don't mean go to the Wal*Mart fishing aisle, I mean go to a fly fishing shop or a tackle shop where the workers are anglers and are eager to help even if they don't sell you something. Watch someone tie the knot and and then try it yourself. Practice a few times there in the store. Look around the store and see if they have a little knot booklet -- I found some little plastic cards that I keep in my vest that have been helpful over the years, though lately I carry it around in order to let others borrow it rather than my own reference:

     http://www.knotcards.com/html/fishing_knot_cards.html

     The second part to this answer is that there is a vast amount of online resources to help you learn to tie fishing knots. As long as you're online looking for knot books, just bring your line to the computer and take a look:

     http://www.animatedknots.com/indexfishing.php

     http://www.troutlet.com/Fishing-Knots-W21.aspx

     http://www.orvis.com/orvis_assets/files/index.html

     There are others, too, and each one will show you the knot in a slightly different way. Once you tie a blood knot maybe five or six times, you'll have it down. After that, you just get better and faster at tying it.
