<b>Does anyone know the best technique to get through on the phone when line is super busy?</b>
<i><p>I am trying to win tickets to a talk show and they give you 6 hours to call but all I get is a busy signal.  Is there any trick I can do to get through?
</p></i>
<p>Sure.  But if I told you here, everyone would know, everyone would use it, and the lines would just be busy again.

Sorry!</p>

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

<b>I got a rusty fish hook stuck in my gum. what should i do?</b>
<i><p>I was trying to solder rusty fish hooks the big octopus ones to my radio so if anyone broke into my jeep and stole it they would get stuck. Well i had coated them all in paint stripper and i was installing it and one broke off and i was like, i guess ill use my mouth to hole it, like you would nails when ur nailing something. well i was chewing gum and i some how bit onto the hook and i shoved the hook quite far into my bottom gum. It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.

<p>This has GOT to be a joke.</p>

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.

<p>It's actually called a 'Trailer Dolly Jack' - either with or without a wheel

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Jerkshad- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_75761____SearchResults

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<i><p>I am trying to win tickets to a talk show and they give you 6 hours to call but all I get is a busy signal.  Is there any trick I can do to get through?
</p></i>
<p>Sure.  But if I told you here, everyone would know, everyone would use it, and the lines would just be busy again.

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

[phpzon]Octopus Hooks, 30, SportingGoods[/phpzon]

		
<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

<b>I got a rusty fish hook stuck in my gum. what should i do?</b>
<i><p>I was trying to solder rusty fish hooks the big octopus ones to my radio so if anyone broke into my jeep and stole it they would get stuck. Well i had coated them all in paint stripper and i was installing it and one broke off and i was like, i guess ill use my mouth to hole it, like you would nails when ur nailing something. well i was chewing gum and i some how bit onto the hook and i shoved the hook quite far into my bottom gum. It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.

<p>This has GOT to be a joke.</p>

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<i><p>I am trying to win tickets to a talk show and they give you 6 hours to call but all I get is a busy signal.  Is there any trick I can do to get through?

<p>Sure.  But if I told you here, everyone would know, everyone would use it, and the lines would just be busy again.

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

<b>I got a rusty fish hook stuck in my gum. what should i do?</b>
<i><p>I was trying to solder rusty fish hooks the big octopus ones to my radio so if anyone broke into my jeep and stole it they would get stuck. Well i had coated them all in paint stripper and i was installing it and one broke off and i was like, i guess ill use my mouth to hole it, like you would nails when ur nailing something. well i was chewing gum and i some how bit onto the hook and i shoved the hook quite far into my bottom gum. It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.

<p>This has GOT to be a joke.</p>

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Jerkshad- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_75761____SearchResults

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon.

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

<b>I got a rusty fish hook stuck in my gum. what should i do?</b>
<i><p>I was trying to solder rusty fish hooks the big octopus ones to my radio so if anyone broke into my jeep and stole it they would get stuck. Well i had coated them all in paint stripper and i was installing it and one broke off and i was like, i guess ill use my mouth to hole it, like you would nails when ur nailing something. well i was chewing gum and i some how bit onto the hook and i shoved the hook quite far into my bottom gum. It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.

<p>This has GOT to be a joke.</p>

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.
</p></i>
<p>It's actually called a 'Trailer Dolly Jack' - either with or without a wheel

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.

<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Jerkshad- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_75761____SearchResults

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<p>Sure.  But if I told you here, everyone would know, everyone would use it, and the lines would just be busy again.

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

Well i had coated them all in paint stripper and i was installing it and one broke off and i was like, i guess ill use my mouth to hole it, like you would nails when ur nailing something. well i was chewing gum and i some how bit onto the hook and i shoved the hook quite far into my bottom gum. It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.
</p></i>
<p>It's actually called a 'Trailer Dolly Jack' - either with or without a wheel

See example:

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Jerkshad- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_75761____SearchResults

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>Does anyone know the best technique to get through on the phone when line is super busy?</b>
<i><p>I am trying to win tickets to a talk show and they give you 6 hours to call but all I get is a busy signal.  Is there any trick I can do to get through?
</p></i>
<p>Sure.  But if I told you here, everyone would know, everyone would use it, and the lines would just be busy again.

Sorry!</p>

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

[phpzon]Octopus Hooks, 30, SportingGoods[/phpzon]

		
<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

<b>I got a rusty fish hook stuck in my gum. what should i do?</b>
<i><p>I was trying to solder rusty fish hooks the big octopus ones to my radio so if anyone broke into my jeep and stole it they would get stuck. Well i had coated them all in paint stripper and i was installing it and one broke off and i was like, i guess ill use my mouth to hole it, like you would nails when ur nailing something. well i was chewing gum and i some how bit onto the hook and i shoved the hook quite far into my bottom gum. It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.

<p>This has GOT to be a joke.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[[phpzon]Sharp Salmon, 30, SportingGoods[/phpzon]

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.
</p></i>
<p>It's actually called a 'Trailer Dolly Jack' - either with or without a wheel

See example:

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Jerkshad- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_75761____SearchResults

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

<b>Does anyone know the best technique to get through on the phone when line is super busy?</b>
<i><p>I am trying to win tickets to a talk show and they give you 6 hours to call but all I get is a busy signal.  Is there any trick I can do to get through?
</p></i>
<p>Sure.  But if I told you here, everyone would know, everyone would use it, and the lines would just be busy again.

Sorry!</p>

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.
</p></i>
<p>It's actually called a 'Trailer Dolly Jack' - either with or without a wheel

See example:

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Jerkshad- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_75761____SearchResults

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

<b>I got a rusty fish hook stuck in my gum. what should i do?</b>
<i><p>I was trying to solder rusty fish hooks the big octopus ones to my radio so if anyone broke into my jeep and stole it they would get stuck. Well i had coated them all in paint stripper and i was installing it and one broke off and i was like, i guess ill use my mouth to hole it, like you would nails when ur nailing something. well i was chewing gum and i some how bit onto the hook and i shoved the hook quite far into my bottom gum. It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.
</p></i>
<p>This has GOT to be a joke.</p>

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.
</p></i>
<p>It's actually called a 'Trailer Dolly Jack' - either with or without a wheel

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Jerkshad- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_75761____SearchResults

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<i><p>I am trying to win tickets to a talk show and they give you 6 hours to call but all I get is a busy signal.  Is there any trick I can do to get through?

<p>Sure.  But if I told you here, everyone would know, everyone would use it, and the lines would just be busy again.

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

<b>I got a rusty fish hook stuck in my gum. what should i do?</b>
<i><p>I was trying to solder rusty fish hooks the big octopus ones to my radio so if anyone broke into my jeep and stole it they would get stuck. Well i had coated them all in paint stripper and i was installing it and one broke off and i was like, i guess ill use my mouth to hole it, like you would nails when ur nailing something. well i was chewing gum and i some how bit onto the hook and i shoved the hook quite far into my bottom gum. It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.
</p></i>
<p>This has GOT to be a joke.</p>

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Jerkshad- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_75761____SearchResults

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<i><p>I am trying to win tickets to a talk show and they give you 6 hours to call but all I get is a busy signal.  Is there any trick I can do to get through?

<p>Sure.  But if I told you here, everyone would know, everyone would use it, and the lines would just be busy again.

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

<b>I got a rusty fish hook stuck in my gum. what should i do?</b>
<i><p>I was trying to solder rusty fish hooks the big octopus ones to my radio so if anyone broke into my jeep and stole it they would get stuck. Well i had coated them all in paint stripper and i was installing it and one broke off and i was like, i guess ill use my mouth to hole it, like you would nails when ur nailing something. well i was chewing gum and i some how bit onto the hook and i shoved the hook quite far into my bottom gum. It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.

<p>This has GOT to be a joke.</p>

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.

<p>It's actually called a 'Trailer Dolly Jack' - either with or without a wheel

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Jerkshad- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_75761____SearchResults

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<i><p>I am trying to win tickets to a talk show and they give you 6 hours to call but all I get is a busy signal.  Is there any trick I can do to get through?
</p></i>
<p>Sure.  But if I told you here, everyone would know, everyone would use it, and the lines would just be busy again.

Sorry!</p>

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

<b>I got a rusty fish hook stuck in my gum. what should i do?</b>
<i><p>I was trying to solder rusty fish hooks the big octopus ones to my radio so if anyone broke into my jeep and stole it they would get stuck. Well i had coated them all in paint stripper and i was installing it and one broke off and i was like, i guess ill use my mouth to hole it, like you would nails when ur nailing something. well i was chewing gum and i some how bit onto the hook and i shoved the hook quite far into my bottom gum. It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.

<p>This has GOT to be a joke.</p>

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon. 

Spoon-http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_89224____SearchResults

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<b>Does anyone know the best technique to get through on the phone when line is super busy?</b>
<i><p>I am trying to win tickets to a talk show and they give you 6 hours to call but all I get is a busy signal.  Is there any trick I can do to get through?
</p></i>
<p>Sure.  But if I told you here, everyone would know, everyone would use it, and the lines would just be busy again.

Sorry!</p>

<b>Will my rig work for stocked trout?</b>
<i><p>I'm fishing on spinning gear and rigged my pole last night for later today.  I've got a sliding bobber, a small octopus hook (a gamakatsu, I'm pretty sure it's like a #4), and below that a  marabou jig, so I can swim the worms around like on a dropshot rig.  The biggest reason I put the jig on is to add weight. I'll be fishing a small pond and with that little bit of weight I'll be able to cover pretty much the entire pond.
</p></i>
<p>Your good with the rig however if their planted/stocked trout, 9 times outta' 10 your planted trout will attack just bout' anything one offers them. Good luck and "Trout on" <);-3</p>

<b>I want to try weed...?</b>
<i><p>I really want to, I think about it alot. Where can i get some. I want a nickle bag, I am in High School. I do not want to get hooked. I just want a weekend of peace. How do I get it. I have 20 bucks is that enough? Is it safe, It is illegal I know. But I am going to be home alone next weekend. Nothing to do. I want to play video games. And get a little high
</p></i>
<p>I have a lot of friends who sell it but don't trust anyone they might sell you some that's not any good! You can tell by color and smell. If its (really) brown don't buy it, the stronger the smell the better. 20 would get you a little bit,. Temporary symptoms: causes red eyes, might speed up your heart rate temporarily, memory loss, you'll forget a lot stuff eventually, may be paraniod, tired/ sleepy, dry mouth, reduced ability to focus on things, some people say it causes depression but i don't know how true that is.. and for some people its addictive, it wasn't for me.. You will definitely zone out though.. Hope this was somewhat helpful. (You won't hallucinate or anything like that.)</p>

<b>How do I put my speed bag on the Everlast Professional Swivel?</b>
<i><p>I recently bought a speed bag set but it came with the S hook swivel, so I went and bought a Professional Swivel by Everlast but I can't figure out how to put my speed bag on now. So if you could write step by step how to put it on the swivel I would appreciate it. But please only answer if you have or had one of these Speed bag swivels and you really know how to do it. Thanks.
</p></i>
<p>Scroll down and check out the section "Chain Link Swivel" on this website:

http://www.speedbagcentral.com/ssp/speedbag_swivels

I followed that advice and was able to change speed bags fairly easily on that swivel.

But if you don't have the retaining ring pliers, then you are just going to have to spread one end of the locking pin with a small screw driver and then use you hands to remove it, once you get the hang of it it is pretty easy.</p>

[phpzon]Octopus Hooks, 30, SportingGoods[/phpzon]

		
<p>If you really want to catch a big catfish, and I mean really big, you will want to know what the best bait for catfish is. Something that works better than anything else for Flathead catfish. Yes, Flathead, those monsters can weigh as much as 123 lbs, the record and are regularly hauled in weighing 40-80 lbs.</p>
<p>No matter what you have used before there is one bait that consistently works better than any other bait for Flathead catfish in most situations. But you will have to check because in some states it is illegal to use. But if it is legal in your area you had better have the heavy tackle ready. You will need it.</p>
<p>The best bait for catfish, flatheads that is, is bullhead catfish. Catfish are the "sharks of fresh water" and are extremely territorial. Bullheads cause a territorial reaction in all species of catfish. Catfish do not have a problem eating their own. Putting a bullhead in their territory will make a big catfish very aggressive.</p>
<p>You will want a 4-6 inch bullhead. Hook him through the mouth with a number 4 octopus hook. Toss him out there and hang on tight because he is going to get nailed. I hope you brought the heavy tackle because if you didn't you will never get that monster in.</p>
<p>I have to warn you, check your local rules and regulations. Bullhead are considered game fish in some states so you have to check and make sure they are legal to use as bait.</p>

It stung really bad and i managed to get it out, but it was rusty and covered in paint stripper. It still hurts quite a lot and stings more than anything. Im assking what should i do, do u think it will just heal ok, or should i get it looked at. The bleeding hasnt stoped and its been an hour and a half and it is sore as shit.

<b>Restaurant cooking of Pacific Coast Salmon - question only for Professional Chefs and Fish Cooks.!?</b>
<i><p>Sometimes a piece of cooked Salmon has a delicious smooth flavor and sometimes it has that sharp tangy unpleasant taste - what is the reason?
Sometimes a single piece can be partly smooth and delicious and partly sharp and tangy?
</p></i>
<p>I have found in my studies that the taste you describe is often associated with overcooking.  In most cases, salmon from the pacific coast (including freshwater cokanee and steelhead salmon) don't really need to be cooked at all to taste good- but salmon that has been cooked too much can gain an uncharacteristic acidic odour.  This seems also to be connected to the freshness of the product (as is basically true of all fish and game).  If one part of the fish seems to be of high quality and another part not, it may be due to higher concentrations of toxic chemicals in one part of the fish... but more likely it has to do with the overcooking and dehydration of a thinner cut- one cooked at too low a temperature for too long will be only slightly miserable throughout.</p>

<b>What is that Weel called that's hooked up to the front of every trailer that is used for leveling?</b>
<i><p>I need one for my small trailer.
They are usually hooked up with two U joints.
They have a Crank to turn, causing the trialer to point up or downwards.
</p></i>
<p>It's actually called a 'Trailer Dolly Jack' - either with or without a wheel

See example:

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<b>What is the best combination of hook/line for FL Gulf fishing? Casting from a dock. Snook Redfish Snapper?</b>
<i><p>Been studying on my spare time.  Looks like maybe a size 1/0 or 2/0 hooks.  What type?  Kahle...or O'shaugnessy?  What brand?  Looks like Eagle Claw is a good brand.  I notice red-colored hooks.  I might get red ones.

I have no idea what size of line.  

What size/type of rod & reel do you recommend?  I'm on a budget.  

By the way, I have fished a hand-full of times on other people's gear lately.  So I know the basics about fishing.  We have been using live shrimp and sliced squid.  

Thanks a lot.
</p></i>
<p>Here's some options for catching bigger & better fish while fishing from a dock in Fla:

1. Instead of "bottom fishing", rig-up a 1/4-1/2 OZ "Chartreuse-colored" Jig with a live Mud-minnow or Live Shrimp. 

Slowly, bump it along the bottom. This will "weed-out" the dinks and "trash fish" associated when using a bottom-rig. A Jig/Mud-minnow combo is deadly on Reds, Flounder & Spec Trout!

Variation: Instead of a Jig, rig-up a "Carolina Rig" with a 1/2 OZ barrel-weight and 18-20" Flurocarbon leader.  Use a live Finger Mullet or Mud-minnow as bait. A 1/0-2/0 Gamakatsu Circle Hook works well with this rig. 12-14LB "Main Line" is FINE for most situations.

If I were you, I would have 2-3 rods fishing at once! 

One with a popping cork with either a Live Shrimp or Live Finger Mullet and one rigged with either a Carolina set-up or a Jig.

Creek fishing 101: Cast out the floating-rig rod (with live shrimp, or Finger Mullet) and leave it in a rod-holder.And while you wait,  be Jigging or Carolina rigging! If you get bored with Carolina or Jig, have a rod rigged for lures.

Lures: Lures work exceptionally well in fast tidal current because they can mimic natural bait fleeing through the tide. Colors?- Greens, Chartreuse, Redhead/White, Pink, White, natural Mullet, Pogey, are all good colors to use.

Berkley Saltwater Powerbait & Gulp works AS GOOD AS live bait in most cases, (These are soft plastic lures designed to be threaded on a 1/4-1/2 OZ Jighead or Offset Hook. My fav Gulp is a Jerkshad and an offset hook-

Gamakatsu Offset Hook- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_53661____SearchResults

Jerkshads work esp well for Snook, Reds & Trout. Even Mangrove Snapper like these...

Copper and Gold colored spoons can be very productive around oyster bars & structures! Make sure to use a 4" Curly-tailed Grub as a trailer on your spoon.

Strike King and Booyah "saltwater" Spinnerbaits in 3/8-1/2 OZ work well too- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_59508____SearchResults

Make sure to "sweeten" all lures with some Pogey or Shrimp aerosal spray attractant- http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_72020____SearchResults 

Throw all lures UP-current and retrieve WITH the tide!

A tip: BUY some CHUM! When you are stuck on a dock waiting for the fish to come to you, a nice CHUM-Slick will attract fish to your area and save you time. Either buy some already-made chum and "bait it up" OR buy some fish flavored "dry" Catfood / crush it up/ mix with some creek mud/ and create a barrier of "chum/mud balls" around your property & dock!

Do this at LOW Tide and by the time mid-tide arrives your dock will be the #1 "Hotspot" on your creek/canal.


Another tip- Most "Gamefish", (Snook, Redfish, Spec Trout, Flounder, Etc), PREFER live bait. You might occasionally catch a "good" fish using dead Shrimp or cut Squid on a bottom-rig but you will have 80% more luck floating some LIVE Shrimp, Mud-minnow, Mullet or using a lure.  

Hope this helps ya?</p>

<p>For more than two decades I have been using live worms to catch fish and in that time have learned a few tips and tricks that will help any live worm angler catch more fish. If you want to know how to catch fish with live worms, this article is for you. These simple tips and tricks will make you a much more effective live worm angler.</p>
<p>Almost all of my worm fishing experience has taken place in rivers and streams, mostly because of the fact that I love fishing in flowing water. I'm not sure if it's the sound of the water, the smell in the air, or the feel of the water against my legs, but fishing in rivers and streams (usually while wading) is my personal favorite way to go fishing. Many of these tips and tricks relate to this type of fishing, although the tips can also easily be modified for other manners of fishing as well</p>
<p>The first thing to keep in mind when learning how to catch fish with live worms is the pound test of the fishing line that's being employed. You always want the focus of the fish's attention to be the worm and not the line, which means using light fishing line. As a general rule you want to use a pound test of fishing line that matches the largest size fish you intend to catch in the water that you are fishing. In other words if a four pound trout is as big a fish as you can imagine catching where you are fishing, use four pound test fishing line. The bottom line is to not use fishing line that's too heavy when attempting to catch fish in this manner.</p>
<p>Next is the size of the fishing hooks that you use. A mistake that many fishermen make (especially people new to fishing) is using hooks that are too large and attempting to "thread" a worm onto that hook. This results in a completely unrealistic presentation and costs many live worm anglers bites. The way to present live worms when fishing is a set of gang hooks, which is a pair of small fishing hooks tied in tandem. A live worm (or half of a live worm if they are large) rigged on a set of gang hooks and allowed to flow with the current of a river is a great <a target="_new" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.jrwfishing.com/how_to_use_gang_hooks.asp">fishing tactic</a> and should be employed by the live worm angler.</p>
<p>When learning how to catch fish with live worms it is also important that you pay attention to when you are fishing. By 'when' I'm referring specifically to the time of day and/or month that you are on the water fishing. The easiest way to determine the best times to go fishing is by paying attention to the weather &amp; moon. These two forces of Mother Nature have quite an affect on the feeding behavior of fish and using this information to your advantage can be a big help when fishing.</p>
<p>Add these simple tips to your fishing arsenal sooner rather than later and you will never again have to ask how to catch fish with live worms. Oh, and don't forget to spend as much time on the water as you can, there is simply no substitute for spending time practicing your craft.</p>
