Now my day started out normal, regular, boring. Out like any other Saturday afternoon at the fishing hole, a pond that all the kids fished at. I happened to see a kid playing with a remote control boat, or should I say what I thought was an remote control boat! Everything looked normal until I noticed a fishing bobber (or lure) trailing behind the remote control boat, connected to a fishing line! That is when I realized this remote control boat was different, and boy was it fun! The boy told me it was a Remote Control Fishing Boat that could cast the line wherever I wanted! The Remote Control Fishing boat was so awesome and it worked so well, that I asked the boy where he got it from?
The boy smiled and smirked, as he told me the remote control fishing boat was from RCFISHINGWORLD.com. I guess these things are all the craze right now. The boy joked with me, you haven’t seen the videos on YouTube?
No sooner did I realize this wasn’t your average remote control fishing boat, I was shocked at the sight of a small Bass trailing on a piece of fishing line attached to it. I didn’t know what to think I was astonished and surprised! The boy caught 7 fish that afternoon with the remote control fishing boat in 3 hours that afternoon! The big fish would come in like clockwork, disconnecting from the line as he smiled driving the boat around the “hot spots” in the pond.
So Here’s the lowdown… the folks at www.RCfishingworld.com came up with the remote control fishing device and the craze is growing all over the world! “RC Fishing” as the kid called i,t was big I found out, after some research I discovered thousands of people were doing it all over the world! Remote control fishing boats were already famous and I never even knew it!
Although most of the clips in the video show remote control fishing boats pulling in fish with the remote control fishing boat, there is another important feature to the boats.
That VERY IMPORTANT FEATURE of remote control fishing boats, is that the fishing line releases. Your remote control boat can deliver your fishing line and bait and detach it from your fishing pole to wherever you want on the water. You can then drop your line after driving your boat to hot spots in the water, it’s just as simple as attaching your pole and driving the boat to the fish!
FEATURES:
A 34″ Remote Control Fishing Boat with a fishing gizmo called The “Radio Ranger” Remote Control Fishing Pole
You can attach your fishing line from your
fishing pole to a remote control fishing boat. This allows the fisherman to use the remote control fishing boat to drive your line as far as a football field out with the capability of than releasing the line.
You can also tie a remote control fishing line directly to it and pull in smaller fish with the remote control fishing boat.
Also if you buy “The Remote Control Fishing Pole” itself, it will attach to any remote control fishing boat that way if you already have an RC Boat, you can turn that boat into a Remote Control Fishing boat without having to buy a new boat!
Normally when you think fly fishing you think trout. Historically fly fishing is reserved for mountian streams and rivers. Fishing for bass is normally done the old way with conventional lures and baits. Here’s a twist, how about fly fishing for Bass?
So grab a fly fishing lure and head to your favorite fishing spot!
Bass Fly Fishing I left Los Angeles to go fly fishing at “the Canals” My flies: chartreuse/white and orange/white clousers (I found these two colors work the best), reddish crayfish, foam spiders (normally used for panfish, but the smallies attack it like crazy, EXPLOSION CITY! ), and a black pencil popper (no name for this fly I just tied what I think might work) I made. I lost count after 40 bass. All and all it was an awesome day of fishing. My next video will be of the Colorado River. All my fish were released unharmed. So GET LOST PETA!!! I had to remake this because my girlfriend thinks my videos are the most boring thing on earth. WOMEN }:| by Jerry Phan
3 Reasons To Love Recreational Ice Fishing: Ultra Light Fishing
Every November, around Thanksgiving, friends and family approach me saying the same old thing, “Why do you like fishing so much in the winter?” The answer is more complicated than the question might appear. Quite simply, Ice Fishing is a passion, it’s a chance to get closer to all the structures of mother nature and furthermore, reel in some monsters! The fruits of an anglers labor might be more bountiful in a more “plush” climate but the bounty of a true fisherman’s reward is in his soul. I tell people, If fishing was supposed to be easy, we would all buy fish tracking computer diagnostic systems, the reward is in the relationship with nature, for me anyway.
Ice fishing is like hunting any animal. So is a hunter more glorified in his skill if he slays his prey with a shotgun, or a bow and arrow? Since the first Inuit tribes of North America first inhabited this great landscape, Ice fishing has been a culture, not just a sport or hobby. Frugal fisherman, might balance the costs of the cold versus the rewards of a winter catch. However I personally encourage everyone I meet to take part in at least one “real” Ice fishing trip, before discounting the potential love for the craft. There are millions of reasons to encourage Ice fishing, as opposed to waiting through the winter or simply going on fishing trips in warmer climates. However due to time restraints (because I have a fishing appointment this afternoon in my friend John’s shanty) I have created this list of the true fundamental appeals of Ice Fishing. Specifically this list is for fisherman who still remain “non-believers,” in the belief that Ice fishing can be even MORE enjoyable than warm whether fishing.
First, Ice Fishing is about nature. As previously eluded, Ice fishing brings a fisherman face to face with the brutal realities of mother earth, not just it’s subtle comforts. Regardless of what your personal fishing inspirations are, whether recreational fishing or sport fishing, any TRUE fisherman knows that their craft is bigger than just catching fish. Ice Fishing is about respect for nature just as much as it is about fun and excitement. Fisherman develop a deep sense of kinship with mother earth, inherently because for years the creed of fisherman was about more than sport it was about survival.
Winter time is about majestic lakes, warm shanty’s and log fires. To adorn the beauty of the harsh climate is to grow a deeper connection with your fishing holes, lakes, streams and ponds. By creating a relationship, bound by memory, a fisherman creates a greater awareness of his craft and mother earth, simultaneously in the winter. For that reason alone, ice fishing is a very cerebral, intoxicating sport, which can bring the best spirits to real men of the wilderness.
Second is the camaraderie of ice fishing. Take out an ultra light rod, a pocket full of small ice jigs and a container of natural bait and crack a brew with your friends. Ice fisherman, like all fisherman, tend to have fishing buddy’s or groups with which they take part in the ice fishing “occasion.” Treasure the winter months, don’t be frayed by the cold, rejoice over your ice hole and pull out a dinner worth talking about for years! Nothing is funnier than the stories inside a shanty, stories from high school, about girlfriends, wives and children, are some of the most valuable treasures a fisherman can find on his path. Reconciling with friends and family, or voicing opinion is perfect in 20 degree weather, inside a warm shanty, sometimes with a television! I like to watch football in my shanty, making the occasion sort of a celebration of sorts. Whatever your passion, enjoy the moment and take in the times.
Third, ice fishing really let’s a man (or woman) get away. Venture out to the depths of the wilderness when your ice fishing. When I go, I just go and go and go and go, as I feel innately intended. Sometimes I will just Google Earth a lake I have never been too, grab my drill and truck and take off looking for it. Enjoying the “wilderness” is amongst the greatest draws for ice fishing enthusiasts who want to cut ties with their daily lives. Embark on an adventure, don’t just fish to fish, fish because you love it! Don’t focus all your attention on a catch, focus on your surroundings, take in the cold and spit it back out. Whatever mother nature dishes a true fisherman, a true fisherman can handle!
That is why I love ice fishing! So take time to think ice fishing over again before dismissing the topic next time it’s brought up. Maybe you might realize ice fishing is the perfect opportunity to find a passion you have been missing!
Ultra light fishing is essential, when going into the wilderness of a swampland. Perhaps no other environment poses a greater give and take, than swamp fishing. Monsters grow in the swamps! Desolate and isolated fish can truly reach there full potential in most Louisiana swamplands. Filled with giant collections of vegetation and ecological activity, all swamp life is vibrant, but how does that affect the fisherman? Whenever a fisherman heads into a swamp, he wants to be prepared. No other environment poses more risk, and harm than the swamp. While instantly mosquito’s come to mind, from my days in the New Orleans Bayous, there is also the danger of alligators and snakes. Nothing can be more cumbersome than catching the wrong critter, so always remember to bring a blade, to cut the line if nothing else, when the wrong fish is on the line.
The negativity aside, swamps still are home to some great fish. Some of my best fish have been pulled out of the dreariest, shallow water swamps. The fish can be full of protien and great to eat, as well, because the swamp provides them such natural nourishment, as opposed to more polluted lakes or rivers. Again though preparation is the main necessity whenever you are thinking about venturing into swampland. While swamp monsters do not exist, many dangerous insects do. A can of strong bug spray is always the first necessity. On top of that dressing can be an interesting topic. Swamps create damp, humid climates, so what does a fisherman wear? Every man is different, however choosing your personal balance between heavy garments, that will keep bugs off, and push away brush can have its advantages, usually the humidity can be overly cumbersome. I like to wear under armour, thin, athletic long sleeves. Like you see football players wearing under their pads. That way my skin is protected from bugs, but I find I do not over heat, because the gear is made to be worn underneath football pads. Also whenever I head into the swamp, I bring a lot of hooks. A lot of snags occur on vegetation of the swamp, and keeping a quality lure on hand is essential. Also whenever swamp fishing, I always, always, bring a partner. Going into the swamp is bordering dangerous, and with the threat of alligators, one is always smart to bring a drinking buddy. I also suggest that when swamp fishing, you bring some sort of weapon. I bring a knife. Just in case an alligator does get snagged on the line and things have to get sticky on the boat.
The downsides to swamp fishing are obvious, but as I said before it can easily yield fantastic results. Swamps are home to a huge variety of fish, that all have great protien. While I usually throw away all the little mouths, I am always gunning for the monster. No where else are there as prehistorically large, fish as in the bayou. New Orleans is one of my favorite fishing holes just for that reason. Getting set up down there can be extremely rewarding as well, right around Mardi Gras. So whenever planning a fishing trip, thinking about New Orleans is always a good idea, especially with your buddies. I love swamp fishing and highly suggest it to friends. Most people are scared of it’s cumbersome nature, in comparison to lakes and streams, but like I said, no where else will you find a better mantle fish, than in the swamp!
So grab a fly fishing lure and head to your favorite fishing spot!
