Cautions When Deep Sea Fishing
Cautions When Deep Sea Fishing by Cornel Tanady Deep sea is a sport that is not for everyone, but for those who take the time to take the experience, it can be quite rewarding. After all, this is like the snowboarding of the world - the 'extreme sport' - and the adrenaline rush you get as you pull that swordfish or marlin over the side of the boat is unmatched by anything else. Before you decide to go on a deep sea expedition, you should consider a few things about yourself to determine whether or not this type of activity is a good idea for you. For example, if you tend to get motion sickness easily, you may not be cut out for deep sea fishing. If you are unsure of how well you can handle the waves of the open water, perhaps you should first try an inexpensive, short excursion to test your sea legs. You can typically charter a one or two hour ride offshore that will take you out a mile or so to experience the feeling of the ocean so you can make your determination. Deep sea also requires that you are not afraid to be in a location where land is not in sight. Often, when you get out to sea by ten miles or more, it is easy to lose sight

of the shoreline. If this thought frightens you, you may want to consider a different type of activity. The deep sea where the biggest fish can be caught will only be in a location this far from the coastline. Another consideration for deep sea is the amount of time in the sun. You will be in direct sunlight that is also bouncing back at you off the glassy surface, putting you at risk for sunburn. There is also no cover from the heat that will be beating down on you all day. While most charter boats have cabins in which you can find shelter from the sun, you cant fish from inside and will spend precious little time there. If you are fair skinned or sunburn easily or are especially susceptible to dehydration or heat stroke, you may want to reconsider making the trip. If you do go, whether or not you expect to be affected by these ailments, carry with you strong SPF sunblock, a hat, and plenty of water. Charters will usually provide water for you as well. If you are prepared, deep sea can be the thrill of a lifetime, so dont be put off by the special considerations that must be taken into account. Simply be cautious, but go out and enjoy yourself!

Deep Sea Fishing

Stop the Madness!!
First, they shut down the red snapper, grouper, and black seabass fisheries for an undetermined length of time. Next, the president forms a task force to oversee and protect the oceanic waters - we have yet to see the outcome of this group's recommendations - some say this could even prevent you from fishing in a pond on your own property. Either of these could curtail recreational fishing as we know it. The fishery closures are already having a huge economic impact on the fishing industry. California anglers wrestle with all the areas closed to fishing every day.

Now I read today that NOAA, in all its wisdom, wants to put loggerhead turtles on the endangered species list. Now, that may not seem to be bad - in fact, protecting an endangered animal species is what we need top do. But - is this turtle really endangered? I see at least one loggerhead on every trip I make. In fact, we often purposely look for one, because they are generally diving over live bottom, and that means fish are down there.

During the recent cold weather in Florida, hundreds of turtles were rescued and saved from death to be released back into the ocean when the water warmed. I just don't see the problem in my experience.

The report talks about Japanese nesting areas for the northern Pacific loggerhead. Ok - go after the Japanese. I wonder why we always seem to have to be the saviors of the world. It's just like the whaling industry in Japan and the blue fin tuna fishery in Japan. World stocks are depleted, but they seem to not care. So - to cure the problem, we let them fish and shut down our own fisheries.

So why is the loggerhead an issue? Well just watch. Top protect these turtles, commercial fishermen will be shut down in certain areas. Beach fronts that are nesting areas will be closed to public access. Boat traffic will be eliminated in areas where loggerheads roam - it just goes on and on. And, if you think I am making this up, just look at the manatee restrictions put in place in Florida over the past several years.

I am sure to get emails blasting me for this - PETA, et al, always watch what I write and then blast me. But - someone has to make some rational sense out of all of this.

You must realize that you have not heard from PETA and the other environmental groups for quite a while. I said years ago that they were well funded and they were taking their fight to lobbyists to quietly change fishing regulations. They have latched onto and gotten the ear of the government now and things will be changing fast over the next few years. IT IS TIME TO STOP THIS MADNESS!

If you fish - and by reading this either you do or you are one of the many tree-huggers that are trying to stop fishing altogether - you need to get hold of your congressman's and senators' ears and tell them - ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!
