Fishing is a very under rated family time activity.  This article will help show a couple of reasons why fishing can be very inexpensive, and very enjoyable for the whole family.

1.  The economy.  Well we all know that the economy is bad right now and many families can’t afford the usual expensive family trips that we are all use too, so a lot of us have to cut back on some luxuries, like expensive trips.  More and more of us are taking day trips or long weekend trips to make up for the loss.  Well not all is lost, there are lots of options out there.  You can go on a fishing and camping trip, or deep sea fishing trip, and they are all very reasonable in price, and very enjoyable for the family. So it’s not a five star hotel in Florida, but sometimes we have to ruff it.

2.  Family Time.  Spending time with your family is one of the most important things to do in your life.  These days we spend so much time working to put a roof over are heads, that we are sometimes too tired to spend time with our children.  The day of one parent staying home with the kids is a thing of the past.  Our kids come home from School to an empty house for a couple of hours until we get out of work.  Fishing is a great way to spend some quality time with your kids, it’s relaxing, and you can find rivers or lakes not far from ware you live.  Even if it’s only for a few hours your kids will love you for it.

3.  Teaching your children how to fish.  When you teach a kid to fish you teach them to survive, they will always know how to catch a meal, it may not seem important now, but later in their lives it will be very important.  Have you ever seen a kid when they catch their first fish, the look on their faces is unforgettable, they are so happy and proud, that’s when you know they are hooked (no pun intended) and they will want to go fishing every chance they can, which will help you when you decide to take the whole family on a fishing trip.

I was an Electronics Engineer for about 20 years, until the economy hit the tank. I love the outdoors, fishing, hiking, biking, camping, and traveling, I also love all kinds of music, and concerts.

By fish out large cannibal pikes can provide cleaner water and fewer environmental toxins in both small pikes, roach(Rutilus rutilus)og perch. That shows results of a doctoral thesis at the University of Life Sciences. Large pikes = trouble. By fishing out large pikes can change the dynamics completely in a fish community, and both contribute to cleaner water and fewer environmental toxins in fish. Chhatra Mani Sharma has in the past four years been studying the significance of top predators in fish communities, by manipulating stocks in the lake Aarungen,Norway. Large pikes in the lake was the victim of hard pike fishing, and the effects of the water ecosystem did not take long to see.

Changed population structure -Small pikes had a much higher survival when the cannibal pikes was removed” said Chhatra. -We set nets throughout the year, and fishing out the pikes over 26 inches. The number of small pikes increased significantly. -This suggests that the population recruitment in the lake is strongly controlled by the cannibalism, says the Nepali student. At the same time, with he increased catch of small pikes the number of roach went down, while the frequency of large perch went up in the nets catch.

Diet determines the visibility Aarungen is a lake with large supply of nutrients, which creates good growing conditions for the algae. Algae contributes to low visible depths in the water, and poor water quality.

-Fish affects both directly and indirectly the amount of algae-eating plankton in the water, said Chhatra. The results showed that the diet of roach and perch changed in step with the out fishing of cannibal pike. Roach and perch had significantly increased consumption of zoo plankton in the diet. Large perch eat roach, and roach are often regarded as a slightly problematic fish. Roachs eat zoo plankton, and zoo plankton eats phytoplankton -Roach also freeing phosphate by eating the organic bottom sediment. A reduction in the amount of roach will help provide better water quality, underlines the doctoral student.

Environment toxic content of the fish were lower. The content of hazardous substances in large fish-eating fish are often high,because hazardous substances pile up at the top of the food chain. The results of Chhatra showed that mercury levels in both pike,roach and perch decreased significantly after removing the cannibal pikes. -Increased individual growth rates among the three investigated fish species have probably led to a “bio dilute” of mercury content,”said Chhatra. The level of chlorine organic hazardous substances in the fish went down sharply. -In 2006 we made pike-cakes of our catch,and it taste really good. We need not to worry about hazardous substances in the pike that year, smiles the student.

Long term work is crucial. -The top predator has a significant effect on the entire ecosystem in Aarungen, with both cleaner water, better water quality and lower environmental toxins in the fish as consequence of good governance,concludes Chhatra. But fishing in Aarungen has not continued after the Ph.D. programme, so the big cannibal pikes are on the way back.He mentioned several places in both Sweden and Denmark where the successful management has led to the restoration of contaminated lakes.
