SOME FLIES FOR BASS FISHING What Can Sportsmen Do About It? By Thomas G.

By Edward Klein If the more than one thousand sportsmens' organizations in Pennsyl­ vania were to conduct intensive campaigns carefully designed to curtail and stop these practices, the results would be tremendous, I assure you.

Fac. Fish., Kagoshima Univ. Vol.29 pp. 81-121 (1980) Fishing Methods and Gears in Panay Island, Philippines*1 Gunzo Kawamura*2 and Teodora Bagarinao*3 Abstract The authors surveyed the fishing methods and gears in Panay and smaller neighboring islands in the Philippines in September-December 1979 and in March-May 1980. This paper is a report on the fishing methods and gears used in these islands, with special focus on the traditional and primitive ones. The term "fishing" is commonly used to mean the capture of many aquatic animals — fishes, crustaceans, mollusks, coelenterates, echinoderms, sponges, and even birds and mammals. Moreover, the harvesting of algae underwater or from the intertidal zone is often an important job for the fishermen. Fishing method is the manner by which the aquatic organisms are captured or collected; fishing gear is the implement developed for the purpose. Oftentimes, the gear alone is not sufficient and auxiliary instruments have to be used to realize a method. A fishing method can be applied by means of various gears, just as a fishing gear can sometimes be used in the appli cation of several methods. Commonly, only commercial fishing is covered in fisheries reports. Although traditional and primitive fishing is done on a small scale, it is still very important from the viewpoint of supply of animal protein.

Day, Director United States Department of the Interior, Oscar L. Chapman, Secretary UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT PRINTING OFFICE : 1950 For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, United States Government Printing Office Washington 25, D. C. - Price 40 cents ABSTRACT One of the serious handicaps in the administration and manage­ ment of the fisheries of the Philippines has been the lack of standardized nomenclature for fishing gear. This publication attempts to solve the problem. It is divided into five parts: The first presents a basic clas­ sification of fishing gear; the second is a key by means of which fishing gear can be identified and new terms for fishing gear can be properly classified; the third defines and illustrates various types of fishing gear; the fourth is a tabular classification of local Filipino di­ alect names; and the fifth is a glossary including definitions of more than a thousand terms.

  • A Look First Web Weavers
    A Look at the First Web Weavers The Last Fishing Gear Masters How Handcrafts Were Replaced By Machine A Demonstration of Early Net Making Timothy C. Visel, Aquaculture Center Coordinator Text by Susan Weber and Alex Disla Diagrams by Alicia Cook May 2007, Adult Education Program The Sound School Regional Vocational Aquaculture School 17 Sea Street New Haven CT 06519 A look at the first web weavers It's an old argument - which came first, baskets or cloth. We will most likely never know for certain. The answer is probably lost for all time. What we do know is that fishing baskets were used thousands of years B.C., so baskets and the process of making twine from natural fibers also enabled the first basket sacks, (which today we call burlap). They also involved the basic techniques for cloth making with looms and the making of mesh or a pliable collapsible basket. The early fishing baskets constructed from shaped wood or split wood had the first concepts of rows, and openings. This was necessary to let some of the water pass through them so as to reduce resistance and of course, let some fish enter also. This is opposite most of the early baskets that were designed to hold all contents and sought to reduce spaces between the weaves. The materials were also different, baskets had finer materials, split fibers or reeds/grasses while those used to catch fish used larger, and more stable materials. Over time, the fishing basket evolved into fishing mesh or a combination of both. It is better to think of the first fishing mesh as a type of basket, with rows and spaces, the space now being defined by a pliable twine that lacked a definite shape, which today is called a “mesh”.
