| Not all fishes lay eggs. |
| Fishes like split fins, surf-perches, and some sharks instead carry and give birth to live young. Scientists have also discovered that the embryos of some of these fishes actually consume each other in the womb. How’s that for creepy fish facts? |

| Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

| Fish have built in radar? |
| Built-in Radar Many species of fish have a powerful sense organ called the lateral line running across their body. It can detect motion in the water, allowing them to hunt prey, avoid predators, and navigate in the dark. |

Tip&Trick Description 1:
We have been using a Power Drop Shot technique that you may have heard of, and it works great in Heavy Cover, and around docks and wood in rivers and lakes. We just rig a heavy weight of 3/8 to 3/4 of an ounce, and then tie on the bait, such as a Yamamoto 'IKA' tube about 10 inches up the line on a 3/0 Gamakatsu hook, and flip and pitch it right in the same way as a jig or other bait. It stays there longer and has more action. Deadly on in-active fish.

WEEKLY FISH COUNT
STRIPED MARLIN: ONE FISH TAGGED AND RELEASED (110 POUNDS)
YELLOWFIN TUNA: 11 FISH KEPT (#10-#25)
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 5 FEBRUARY, 2004
Harold and his wife Mary are here for two months this time and Harold has some
friends coming in next week as well. He would like to get more time on the water this
vacation so today is the first day out. Well, it has been windy and choppy, today was
no exception. It was not bad early in the day but around 10 the wind started to pick up
and it really blew. Harold managed to get 10 Yellowfin Tuna, most of them footballs in
the 10-12 pound class, but there were three that were between 20 and 25 pounds, and
Juan said that they hooked up several others that were larger. The also go a few
Bonito as well. They were in about an hour early and Harold said that he was not going
out again until the wind and water settled down! I sure hope it does that soon!
“FLY HOOKER” FISH REPORT FOR 6 FEBRUARY, 2004
John, Joe, Pete and Skip went fishing on the “Fly Hooker” today after fishing a few
smaller boats earlier in the week. The fishing was not red hot for them by any means
with the only fish of the day looking like it was going to be the 15 pound Yellowfin
caught early in the trip. Shortly after catching that fish (in the blind) they received a
report over the radio of a good bite going on about three miles away. In came the lines
and off they roared. When they got there four boats were already working the fish,
with a couple of them hooked up. As sometimes happens, the first boats get the fish,
the late comers get to watch. No fish for the “Fly Hooker” but on the way back they did
get a Striped Marlin to come into the lures and strike at one of them. Juan dropped
back a live bait and Pete got the honors of fighting the fish. About 30 minutes later he
was successful in tagging and releasing his first Marlin! Way to go! Getting back to
the dock they found that there had only been a couple of other Marlin caught that day.
A few boats on our dock were loaded down with Dorado and Yellowfin flags however,
and we found that there had been a dead whale found, but everyone there had
maintained radio silence so they would not get too crowded. Manuel said he will never
call any of them on to a good bite anymore! Any way, not a bad day, and the wind
seems to be laying down, they guys said there were big swells but no chop today! Until
next week, tight lines!
