Question by tibi325: which skillcape should i get trimmed and other one regular out of firemaking and fishing skillcapes?
I plan to get the fishing and firemaking skillcapes. I can get only one of them trimmed but I don’t know which one should i get trimmed and which one should I get regular.

Answer by iaga
If I were you, I would get the Fishing cape trimmed – it’s got the gold edge with the light blue center – this makes it a very recognizable cape. From what I remember (I haven’t seen one in a while) the trimmed Fire cape has a very similar trim to it, meaning that you aren’t able to tell it apart from untrimmed easy.

Chances are you’ll wear the Fishing cape most anyway, since it’s one of the hardest skills to get 99 in (just based on the fact it takes forever). You’ll also gain most instant respect for having 99 Fishing moreso than you would for 99 Firemaking, because people can just “buy” the latter skill – Fishing takes a certain degree of skill.

Bloom in the Ross Sea

NASA image acquired January 22, 2011

Every southern spring and summer, after the Sun has risen into its 24-hour circuit around the skies of Antarctica, the Ross Sea bursts with life. Floating, microscopic plants, known as phytoplankton, soak up the sunlight and the nutrients stirring in the Southern Ocean and grow into prodigious blooms. Those blooms become a great banquet for krill, fish, penguins, whales, and other marine species who carve out a living in the cool waters of the far south.

This true-color image captures such a bloom in the Ross Sea on January 22, 2011, as viewed by the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA’s Aqua satellite. Bright greens of plant-life have replaced the deep blues of open ocean water.

The Ross Sea is a relatively shallow bay in the Antarctic coastline and due south from New Zealand. As the spring weather thaws the sea ice around Antarctica, areas of open water surrounded by ice—polynyas—open up on the continental shelf. In this open water, sunlight provides the fuel and various current systems provide nutrients from deeper waters to form blooms that can stretch 100 to 200 kilometers (60 to 120 miles). These blooms are among the largest in extent and abundance in the world.

Scientists have hypothesized that the Modified Circumpolar Deep Water is the engine behind the blooms, stirring up just the right mix of trace metals and minerals from the deep to sustain plankton growth. This month, researchers aboard the U.S. icebreaking ship Nathaniel B. Palmer are cruising in the Ross Sea in search of the signatures of this current system.

Question by iamthewalrus268: How to decide between a light and ultra-light ice fishing rod and reel combo?
We are just getting started, wanting to do some general ice fishing in north-west Michigan?

Best answer:

Answer by Rob
If you’re fishing mainly for pan fish, ultra light is definitely the way to go. If you’re going to be fishing for walleye or some other larger game fish, you might want to get the light combo. If you can get an extra spool for the light combo, put 2lb. test on it, and just change to the light line when you’re after pan fish.

Fishing


Image by Hambo
In color, from Lake Geneva, Switzerland. Funny story actually. I was lucky to catch this image of what I thought was a skilled local fisherman catching some fish on a beautiful lake. The reality is he and his wife had just pulled off the road so he could cast a few before the light faded.

Just off frame, his wife was sitting in their car yelling at him to hurry up. Attempting his first cast, just after this photo was snapped, our fisherman caught his lure between the boards in the dock. He struggled for about 5 minutes to free the hook from the wood, tangling his line in the process. He finally gave up, cut the line, and drove off with his angry wife still yelling. I got the shot I needed though!

Many of you saw me crash this Blue Ray Helicopter a few months ago doing a roll too low. Now repaired, I test fly it, then take it to the Sibley Pond to try my hand at Helicopter Fishing again. The (Perch, Sunfish, rock cod Blue Gill) here bite on just about anything at any time, so I hoped to catch something on the first battery. Here you will see what happens in this un-cut attempt to catch another fish just like last year. Bait: Grubs. The Blue Ray helicopter is available from xheli.com and here is the link www.dpbolvw.net For the HELMET comments you all make, I respond. My bike is a ’95 Honda Goldwing. It weights 800 lbs and 1000 with me on it. There are NO helmet laws in IOWA and I chose to not wear it for this 1/2 mile ride. I usually wear a helmet, cause Im a goldwing guy with intercom and like the comfort when it is cold. But for a few blocks with no trucks or traffic, I chose not to were it to make this video, because I dont have to in Iowa. I am a member of the 1 million mile MOTORCYCLE club. This is my 3rd Goldwing and my 22nd motorcycle. Not to worry about crashing, as I am very cautious AND there is no real traffic here, like California (where I put all those miles on mostly) I don’t crash my helicopters much either, unless I do something stupid, and I have learned not to do those stupid things on bikes or Helcopters over the years too. I have been riding for over 50 years now, with no crashes and even have a trike kit for this 6 cylinder Honda. Thanks for …

This is where you get the fish of the day on Santa Cruz, The Galapagos, Ecuador. The local fishermen come back here with their catch, cut and slice the the fish and sell it. They have a pet sea lion. The pelicans hover all about hoping for some extras which there often are, especially the fish heads.

World’s cheapest fish trap. Made from a plastic soda bottle, a bit of fishing line, and a few push pins. Cat fish chow used as bait, but dog food or cat food would likely work just as well.
