As an angler, I am very concerned with conservation to ensure that I and the generations that follow can go fishing. I was sent an article yesterday that I found really interesting. It dealt with why fish were skinny in a small private lake. Their conclusion after research was that the fish were eating soft plastics and could not digest them. In turn the soft plastic blocked the digestive track. The fish were trying to eat but couldn’t. This shows us just how important proper disposal of our soft plastics can be. There are occassions where we cannot help what has happened. An example of this is a fish pulls it off the hook. Please do your part to keep our fish healthy and dispose of your soft plastics properly so you or someone else can enjoy the benefits of fishing. For those interested in the article I am referring to click the link below.

Latest Fishing Technology And Fishing Gears

Imagine you’re sitting out there on your fishing boat, you whip out a cool gadget you just bought from the Internet and after a couple of beeps, the device tells you that there is a school of fish some 3 meters or so away from you. Now, how cool can that be? It’s almost like an ultrasound scan of the sea or the lake that tells you exactly where the fish are.
But of course, this is not news because many different companies have developed their own ultrasound-like fish finding gadgets a long time ago. But Maptech’s new i3 module is the first of its kind. It’s the first ever touch screen, hi-resolution 3D Fishfinger. Yes, you can literally see the kind of fish that’s swimming around under your boat, in super clear images and in real time.
The i3 Touch Screen command on the fishing gadget can help you navigate the floor of the lake or sea with a radar, combine it with satellite communication and a weather report too.
This is an absolutely MUST for those who seriously looking into easy-fishing.

I have often wondered about all the used plastic baits that get thrown overboard. I’m guilty of it in my past. Here is some used worms and spinnerbait information that could help the environment. Me and my fishing buddy throw all of our used worms and trailers off of our spinnerbaits into a bucket I keep in the boat and pour our own worms with them later. Beats buying them. http://www.spinnerbaits101.com
