Catching My First Fish Have you ever caught a salmon? If you have then you know then they put up a fight. This is how I caught my first salmon. It was a cool afternoon and I was about 9 years old, I was casting an orange spinner, under the bridge at Black River. I was getting tired of fishing because I haven’t caught anything all day. I was slowly reeling in the lure back up to the bank of the river. I had a hit! I tried to set the hook, but I didn’t set the hook in time. I sighed and then…
The Monster Fish One day my dad and I woke up and hit the road. We woke up at five thirty in the morning. We drove for about forty five minutes with nothing but corn fields and houses. When we started on the the road we stopped by the gas station and got us some donuts and the hit the water. We got on the water and then suddenly I realized that we forgot water and we were going to be on the water all day long. At this point in time my dad and I made our first cast. We were fishing with a drop…
Braithwaite claims that fish feel pain. I absolutely agree with Braithwaite. Some people might think of fish as dumb animals,because they don't show much emotion when a hook is in their mouth or a spear is thru their heads. But this doesn't mean that fish cannot feel pain. I have gone fishing very many times and know the empty looking face that most fish make after you reel them in, and the flapping gasping for water look while lying on the deck. However Even though fish may not seem to express…
When humans fish they bait a hook and throw it in the water the blue heron dose the same thing In the text it says that a herron throws a small piece of bait and stand next to the shore and waits for a small fish to approach it. Then the heron strikes with amazing speed before the fish can react an it then has its dinner. The heron is smarter than you think it use the same tactics as humans but probably even more efficient because it doesn't have to worry about the fish seeing the hook or the…
him, so I said yes. My friend Jackson, his dad called him and asked him if we wanted to go to a fishing competition for the Police Department. When we got there, I told Jackson i've never fished before. “Heres how you throw it in and put bait on the hook,” Jackson said. I tried to mimic what he told me, and once I tried to cast the rod out, Jackson told…
empathize with fish, because although it may not be obvious, fish are indeed affected by pain. While I do agree that most people do not put time and effort into trying to understand the emotions of fish, I do not believe that we should have to because there are more important issues to worry about in the world. In the article Braithwaite mentions in the first paragraph that fish are be dragged onto shores by hooks, which ultimately causes them pain. She says the reason why people treat fish…
for me, but I got it. I put the hook through the top so it could still swim it had a bit of blood coming out of it not a whole lot though. I threw it out in the water on the hook I set the pole in the rod holder. I grabbed my other fishing pole and started walking down the river to fish for walleye. I started fishing for walleye and I felt something hit the lure, I waited a couple minutes and something hit the lure again, I set the hook and the rod bent and the fish fought back. I was reeling…
