Which fishing technique do you prefer?

Fly Fishing

Ancient Macedonian pottery paintings indicate that fly fishing, that is, fishing with

a lure constructed of feathers to imitate an insect, was the first form of angling

with a rod. Fly fishing differs from most other disciplines of fishing today because

the fly must be cast on a fly rod, a very whippy, limber pole which is bent or

"loaded" by a fly line. Whereas a bait fisherman uses the weight of his lure or bait

to pull line out behind it when thrown, a fly fisher uses the weight of the line

itself to bend and unbend his rod.

Hand fishing

It is possible to fish with minimal equipment by using only the hands. In the USA

catching catfish in this way is known as noodling. In the British Isles, the practice

of catching trout by hand is known as trout tickling.

Spear and bow fishing

Spear fishing is an ancient method of fishing and may be conducted with an ordinary

spear or a specialised variant such as an eel spear or the trident. A small

trident type spear with a long handle is used in the American South and Midwest for

"gigging" bullfrogs with a bright light at night, or for gigging carp and other trash

fish in the shallows.

Fishing nets

All fishing nets are meshes usually formed by knotting a relatively thin thread.

Modern nets are usually made of artificial polyamides like nylon, although nets of

organic polyamides such as wool or silk thread were common until recently and are

still used in certain areas.

Fishing lines

Fish are caught with a fishing line by encouraging a fish to bite upon a fish hook or

a gorge. A fishing hook will pierce the mouthparts of a fish and may be barbed to

make escape less likely. A gorge is buried in the bait such that it would be

swallowed end first. The tightening of the line would fix it cross-wise in the

quarry's stomach or gullet and so the capture would be assured.

Ice fishing

Ice fishing is the practice of catching fish with lines and hooks through an opening

in the ice on a frozen body of water. It is practised by hunter-gatherers such as the

Inuit and by sportsmen in many cold climates.

What ever technique is you favorit, one thing is for certain; fishing is a

fantastic recreational hobby or sport. A growing number of people around the world is

joining the fellowship of fishermen. More and more people are finding out about the

relaxing effect fishing has. One could wonder why it is so. Maybee because the world

surrounding us all is going faster and faster, and we need a breathing hole ones and

a while to catch our breath. Fishing provides that hole! A lot of us has known it for

years, some has just discovered it, and others will join in the future.
Happy fishing - see you out there.

Fast and Able: Life Stories of Great Gloucester Fishing Vessels

Fast and Able: Life Stories of Great Gloucester Fishing Vessels
As a boy, Gordon W. Thomas climbed the rigging of schooners tied up at Gloucester wharves and gazed over the masts out to sea, where he yearned to go. But his father, Capt. Jeffrey Thomas, skipper of the Adventure, would not let him go to sea. The sea was too dangerous, he said. There were enough Thomases at sea.

So Gordon Thomas stayed onshore and became a walking encyclopedia of Gloucester schooners. In 1952, he published the first edition of Fast and Able under the title Builders of Gloucester's Prosperity. This fiftieth-anniversary edition includes histories of schooners not collected in previous editions. It was made possible by the author's son, Jeff Thomas II, and by Nelson B. "Buck" Robinson, owner of the Toad Hall Bookstore in Rockport and publisher of the previous edition.
