Cheney District Fisheries Volume 9, Issue 2 Fall, 2018 District News: Cheney, Hutchinson and Wichita Fishing Hello everyone, I hope you all had a safe and fun summer fishing season! If you’re like me, you are probably looking forward to cooler temperatures, college football and hunting seasons ahead. Don’t forget that fall offers some of the best fishing opportunities of the year. Fish feeding activity increases when temperatures begin to Inside This Issue drop from their summer peak. The best part is that you may have the lake to yourself! Good luck out there! District News Cheney Reservoir Fishing Q&A New Brushpiles Paying Off Hook, Line & Sinker The Cedar trees that were placed in February 2018 are holding some big fish. KDWPT fisheries division staff sampled both sites with electrofishing for catfish in August. Numerous Blue Catfish up to 19 pounds and Flathead Catfish up to 40 pounds were sampled in each location. If you want to go after these fish, you may need to adjust you tactics somewhat. The blues are likely suspended in the upper half of the trees, and the flatheads are probably hanging out on the bottom under the trunks during the day. To target the blues, I At Right: KDWPT fisheries would suggest drifting cut shad biologists Craig Johnson and Lowell Aberson with a just over the tops of the trees, 32-inch Blue Catfish perhaps using a float to control electrofished from a the depth. For flatheads, try jigging live bait around the base of the trees; good boat brushpile site.

Fishing Gear Gear Types
Fishery Basics – Fishing Gear Gear Types All types of fishing gear, regardless of how it might be used, are designed to lure and capture fish. Fishing gears are defined as tools used to capture marine/aquatic resources, whereas how the gear is used is the fishing method. Additionally, a single type of gear may also be used in multiple ways. Different target species require different fishing gear to effectively catch the target species. Fishing gears fall under two general categories, active gear and passive gear. Active gears are designed to chase and capture target species, while passive gears generally sit in one place allowing the target species to approach the capture device. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) further classifies fishing gear into 11 categories primarily based on how the gear are fished, we have provided detailed information about each category See Fishing Gear. To browse a partial list of fishing methods and marine zones where they might be used click here. Hook & Line Hook and line gear consist of a minimum of two parts, a hook that is attached to a monofilament line. Artificial or natural baits are used to lure fish to the hook and once the fish has bitten the hook it is hauled in. It has been suggested that the first fishing line was actually Eskimo walrus- hide line used with a harpoon (See Fishing Gear – Grappling & Wounding Gear). Hook and line gear are used to catch benthic, demersal, and pelagic fishes. Modern fishhooks come in a variety of sizes, shapes, and materials. There are two main types of hooks: J-hooks and circle hooks.

INSHORE FISH AGGREGATION DEVICES Their Deployment and Use
SPC/Fishenes 24/WP 10 Page 1 ORIGINAL: ENGLISH SOUTH PACIFIC COMMISSION TWENTY-FOUR REGIONAL TECHNICAL MEETING ON FISHERIES (Noumea, New Caledonia, 3-7 August 1992) INSHORE FISH AGGREGATION DEVICES Their deployment and use. (Paper prepared by the Secretariat) INTRODUCTION 1 Growing regional interest in the development of domestic tuna fisheries has inspired a parallel interest in fish aggregation device (FAD) programme development. The 22nd RTMF reflected this interest in its focus on FADs. At the direction of that meeting the DSFDP has increased its efforts to provide both practical FAD assistance and development work in offshore FAD technology and exploitation. In addition, as directed by the 22nd RTMF, the Project has widened the scope of its activities to include, among other things, an ongoing effort to develop effective technology and exploitation techniques for FADs set in shallow inshore waters, most often for the particular purpose of aggregating baitfish species. 2. Apart from appropriate gear, the single most important ingredient for successful mid- water tuna fishing techniques, such as vertical and horizontal longlining and mid-water handlining, is the availability of suitable bait. It is widely recognised among Pacific island fisherman that small pelagic species such as big-eye scad (Seiar crumenophthalmus) and round scad (Decapterus spp.). which are widely known in the region by variations of the common Polynesian names of atule and opeta respectively, being a natural prey of tuna, make for superior bait. 3 These and some other small pelagic species also provide a seasonal source of food fish in some areas and fisherman have learned a good deal on a localised basis about the seasonal occurrence and behaviour of these, fishes.

FISHING TERMINOLOGY There Is Lots of Great Tackle Available Here Are Some Terms of Basic Tackle Items and Techniques to Help You Get Started
NAMES YOU NEED TO KNOW – FISHING TERMINOLOGY There is lots of great tackle available Here are some terms of basic tackle items and techniques to help you get started. • ROD – A long lever, usually made of fiberglass, graphite or composite materials and used to catch fish. Different types are available, such as rods for spinning, fly fishing, spincast, bait casting, boat fishing, offshore trolling, surf fishing, jetty/pier fishing, etc. Most rods have a reel-holding clamp and guides through which the line runs. • REEL – A mechanical device for holding and spooling fishing line. Reels have a line spool, brake to slow running fish, handle to retrieve line and foot for clamping to a rod. Reel styles include CASTING (revolving spool), SPINNING (line coiling off stationary spool); SPINCAST, (like spinning but with a nose cone), and FLY (storing thick fly line/backing and to fight big fish). Open-Face Spinning Reel Closed-Face Spinning Reel Bait Casting Reel Fly Reel • LINE – Specialized "string" used for fishing. Nylon monofilament line is the most popular. Other lines are made of different materials, including braided fibers and wire. FLY LINE is a specialized line made of a plastic coating on a core, and often made tapered (changing diameter) to make fly casting easier. (To preserve good fishing, take any discarded line with you when you leave. Discarded line can snag and harm wildlife, and kill fish, turtles, frogs, birds and small mammals.) • LEADER – A length of monofilament, wire or other stranded material tied between the end of the line and the lure or hook.
