Fishing Trips A Very Wholesome Experience

Have you ever heard the old saying, Give the man a fish and feed him for the day or teach the man to fish and feed him for a life time? Sure you have, and you know what, it is very true. But, where do you suspect that they learned to fish? Probably as a youngster setting out with a fishing adventure with they’re parents or grandparents. Fishing is a great sport and a way that many have Sunday lunch. The kids absolutely love it. Not only is a fishing trip for the kids educational it also spends that desperately needed quality time with them.


Some dads do not suggest a fishing trip because they think mom would balk at the idea. Men do not hold your tongue, women are not as fragile as they would like everyone to believe! Many women truly enjoy the outdoors and can learn sometime from catching a fish. Also moms like to see their children sharing an educational and loving experience with their family! Families that play together stay together, remember that!


Fishing trips can be relatively inexpensive. Pitch a tent in a state park and enjoy the rest of the weekend. If you do not want to purchase fishing equipment there are many outfitters that will allow you to rent equipment. You may not have the need for fishing rods, reels and bait at home so go ahead and rent them. For safety sake don’t forge the life jackets for everyone. Never scrimp when it comes to safety.


Children of all ages can learn to bait the hook and wait patiently until they feel that little tug! You may want to help them reel it in because some of those fish can be quite the handful even for us adults. Fishing can be found in just about every state around the world, but some places are much better than others are. Here are a few tips for choosing the perfect location for your next fishing trip.


The lone star state of Texas offers many activities and some of the best fishing ever. They have catfish stocked ponds that can leave you with the best meal of your life. Bass fish, trout, redfish and carp are all fish commonly found in the Texas freshwater areas. There are also saltwater fishing experiences in Texas as well. Look for the Flounder, Macrerel, Shark, Snapper and many more.


Colorado is another popular fishing trip spot. The serene lands with snowy mountaintops are a picture perfect vacation. The different species of trout is one of the leading fish that anglers are looking for in the area. From the brown trout to the cutthroat trout they are all delicious. Salmon is another popular fish in the Colorado area.

African Carp Care – How To Manage An Aquarium With African Carp

The Genus Aphyosemion African Tooth Carp which is not only a hot favorite among fish breeders but also the prettiest one to be found in the market is one species which can be bred in communities. This species has a short life span and it is advisable to keep them in separate tanks. The fish will start contracting their fins and hide themselves in the aquarium corners. The aggressive males of this species fight amongst themselves and therefore have a male put with only other females.
For those fish lovers who want to breed these carps in a tank would do well to have them bred under shade and among plants which float. Fill the tank bottom with overcooked peat and fill with water which is slightly hard or acidic. For one gallon of water, add a tea spoon of salt(table salt mind you!) to make the water alkaline in which certain fish love to breed in. Some fish are short lived have them placed in aquariums separately. They can be categorized as which breed at the surface, mid level and bottom. The eggs of the first spawn will attach themselves to the leaves of the floating plants. For the second spawn provide fine leaf plants for the eggs to stick to. The third should be allowed to stick to the peat at the bottom of the aquarium.

Bottom and surface spawners love to live in glass tanks. Since carps eat their own eggs, have them removed to another tank. Maintain the temperature at 25 degrees Fahrenheit. If the peat dries up the eggs won’t survive so maintain the temperature at 65 degrees. Keep shaking the peat while refreshing with soft water and have the temperature kept at 75 degrees Fahrenheit.
Fish that breed at the bottom love to move around floating plants and can be bred in smaller tanks. After the female carps have delivered have them separated and clear the water. Carefully remove the water using a small tube to keep the eggs and peat safe. Keep the temperature at a constant of 70 degrees Fahrenheit for the required period. Finally, have the peat broken up but maintain the temperature at 65 degrees Fahrenheit. While you transfer the eggs keep adjusting the temp. to 60 degrees Fahrenheit.

This species is for people with lots of experience at fish breeding so it is advisable that first timers avoid this species. There are other simpler carps like the Brachydanio Rerio or Zebra Danio found in the eastern waters of India, which first timers can have in their aquariums. This variety which is small can grow up to a length of 1 ¾ inches and comes not only in attractive colors like silver, gold, blue and black but it also has a cylindrical body shape. The Reiro species are the best type for people new to keeping fish as these are undemanding as the eat everything provided and can adjust in all types of water conditions.

Making Instant Carp Baits Easy!

When you need some essential inspiration to liven-up your catch rate (or literally stop those blank sessions in their tracks,) really manipulate fish feeding behaviour by exploiting different aspects of your baits; read on to discover how…

For both winter and summer conditions why not try combining high-attract tiger nut pellets, hemp pellets, bloodworm pellets, spicy shrimp pellets, spirulina and betaine pellets and CSL pellets all together. This provides a very wide range of hugely well proven carp feeding nutritional stimuli and attraction…

You might try adding to this combination a mixture of Minamino, salmon protein, L030 fish protein and betaine HCL, to dampen your pellets and seriously boost their performance and speed their effects. Of course adding this and similar mixtures to expander pellets and shelf-life readymade baits for example is awesome too!

When using readymade shelf-life and freezer baits, why not exploit their matching base mixes offered and make ground baits to your own personal taste. You could boost those attractors and liquids etc that are recommended for your base mixes, and use the mixture as ground baits that will release soluble substances far better and far quicker than conventional boilies and many pellets. Upon introduction this will instantly provide excellent levels of carp attraction into your swim.

Try boosting bait attraction with hydrolysed salmon extract from Carpfishingpellets (online,) green lipped mussel extract, liver powder, blood powder, Robin Red, meat meal, CSL meal, ground crushed hemp, brewers yeast, poultry protein meal, carp pellet powder, betaine and lecithins for instance. Or simply add Ccmoore Red Venom or Feedstim XP, dried shrimps, crushed hemp, lecithins and betaine, to your own homemade boilie base mixes. (Perhaps try these and others to produce your own very unique pastes and ground baits too!)

For those who really like to do their own thing, then perhaps use a mixture of carp pellet powder from Carpfishingpellets as an highly nutritious base, with CSL meal, crushed hemp, predigested fish meal, brewers yeast and betaine, and liquid liver for example; this will really work. The real beauty of making homemade bait is you can control the cost and also the levels of the additives and ingredients that have really significant impacts on fishes systems and responses. Add Talin protein sweetener and liquid intense sweeteners (in a combination,) plus butyric acid, and it will do wonders in boilie, paste, and ground baits etc.

The course texture of tiger nut meal is great for both cold water and warmer water conditions allowing carp attraction substances to disperse outwards very effectively. Using poultry protein meal in baits will hit both carp and big catfish in just the right spots!

If you are worried about binding – why use what everyone seems to use,(i.e. Vitalin,) when carp and cats and all too well aware of its potential dangers now; so use something unique like carp pellet powder in boilies, pastes, method and ground bait mixes. Carp pellets are after all formulated for carp (not dogs,) so which product do you think is more effective and more suitably digestible and usable to carp in getting that all important edge!?

In terms of soluble attraction, if you use a cheap 50 percent soya and 50 percent semolina boilie base mix for instance, do yourself a massive favour. When your chosen liquid flavours have leached out there will be far less to initiate carp feeding response. So add some serious extra incentives for your fish to feed, such as bulking it out with a reliable base mix to make it cheaper such as Meteor or Odyssey XXX from Ccmoore. Or simply add liver powder, green lipped mussel extract, brewers yeast and dried blood powders for instance; more goodies please says Mr Carp!
