What effect does the moon have on ocean fishing? I live in southern California, and have been out on alot of half day to 2 day trips. I'm planning on going out on a 3/4 day trip out to Catalina Island for calico bass, and yellowtail, as the bite is starting to heat up with the weather. I follow the fish reports, and it's been hit or miss lately(it's a little early in the season). The weather is pretty constant now, so thats not an issue. I was wondering if I could improve my odds of having a good trip by going out on a certain day of the moon cycle.

I need to write a two page report on the smallmouth bass and I can't find enough info.? Even using Wikipedia, I haven't even written a half of a page. What are some good sites that have a lot of info on the fish. I'm looking for info about the fish, not about how to catch them.

Is Yahoo Answers smothering Free Speech? I got kicked for random words... Iwas "reported" for writing "DUMB BASS". Why would Yahoo kick me for not liking a fish? Was some fish out there offended? I mean I could start reporting violations indiscriminately for all pro Republican posters, but where is the discussion in that?

I read that deep sea fish are now unsafe to eat... now what? The local papers reported recently that due to higher levels of pollution in the oceans, fish like barracuda, grouper, sea bass, etc are now unsafe to eat. This might also explain why when I was younger I was able to eat shellfish and all sorts of seafood without any problem, but now I can't - shellfish like limpets, abalone, oysters, etc trigger a severe immune response in me. Also I have read that farmed salmon are fed chemicals that might be carcinogenic to humans, and that tuna and other fish now contain high levels of toxins in them. So my question is, with more and more things being deemed unsafe due to pollution or being fed unsafe chemicals, where do we go from here? I don't have any land to grow my own organic food on! And even then, who is to say the soil isn't polluted? Sigh!

Ever since the discovery of gender-bending fish? Ever since the discovery of gender-bending fish in the Potomac River, scientists have wondered what could be changing the sex of large numbers of fish in the waterway outside Washington, D.C. They may not have to wonder much longer. A recent U.S. government study has found large quantities of chemicals in the river and its tributaries—pollutants that are known to cause sex change in animals. These chemicals, from both residential and industrial sources, may be linked to the unnatural fish, says the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) report, which was released late last month. Males With Eggs The discovery of the abnormal fish "was largely accidental," said Douglas Chambers, a USGS scientist who led the study. "In 2002 we were looking at stream-water chemistry to understand the large fish die-offs at these sites. It was then that we found smallmouth bass with intersex, a condition where male fish develop premature egg cells."

do you agree ..this is a bit long but you dont need to read it all just my thoughts? Stupid people should have to wear signs that just say, "I'm Stupid". That way you wouldn't rely on them, would you? You wouldn't ask them anything. It would be like, "Excuse me...oops, never mind. I didn't see your sign." It's like before my wife and I moved. Our house was full of boxes and there was a U-Haul truck in our driveway. My friend comes over and says "Hey, you moving?" "Nope. We just pack our stuff up once or twice a week to see how many boxes it takes. Here's your sign." A couple of months ago I went fishing with a buddy of mine, we pulled his boat into the dock, I lifted up this big 'ol stringer of bass and this idiot on the dock goes, "Hey, y'all catch all them fish?" "Nope -Talked 'em into giving up. Here's your sign." I was watching one of those animal shows on the Discovery Channel. There was a guy inventing a shark bite suit. And there's only one way to test it. "Alright Jimmy, you got that shark suit on, it looks good... They want you to jump into this pool of sharks, and you tell us if it hurts when they bite you." "Well, all right, but hold my sign. I don't wanna lose it." Last time I had a flat tire, I pulled my truck into one of those side-of-the-road gas stations. The attendant walks out, looks at my truck, looks at me, and I SWEAR he said, "Tire go flat?" I couldn't resist. said, "Nope. I was driving around and those other three just swelled right up on me. Here's your sign." We were trying to sell our car about a year ago. A guy came over to the house and drove the car around for about 45 minutes. We get back to the house, he gets out of the car, reaches down and grabs the exhaust pipe, then says, "Darn that's hot!" See? If he'd been wearing his sign, I could have stopped him. I learned to drive an 18 wheeler in my days of adventure. Wouldn't ya know I misjudged the height of a bridge. The truck got stuck and I couldn't get it out no matter how I tried. I radioed in for help and eventually a local cop shows up to take the report. He went through his basic questioning..ok..no problem. I thought sure he was clear of needing a sign...until he asked "So..is your truck stuck?" I couldn't help myself! I looked at him, looked back at the rig and then back to him and said "no I'm delivering' a bridge...here's your sign." take a sign michelle it is mine

Here's your sign!! .lol. These never get old!? Stupid people should have to wear signs that just say, "I'm Stupid" That way you wouldn't rely on them, would you? You wouldn't ask them anything.

I looked at him, looked back at the rig and then back to him and said, "No, I'm delivering a bridge... here's your sign." I stayed late at work one night and a co-worker looked at me and said, "Are you still here?" I replied, "No. I left about 10 minutes ago. Here's your sign." Know anybody who needs a sign? LOL LMFAO @ Max........ damn right, here's your sign!! LMAO @ Aussie Mommy....... the only thing that was missing was the wonderful saying, here's your sign!! I could imagine the look on that guys face when you said that to him.
