Abstract:
While camping in the rain may not be desired, rain often makes for better fishing in North Carolina. Insects knocked into the lakes and streams by wind and rain attract insect-eating fish, such as bluegills, luring them closer to the water’s surface. Raindrops also break up the surface water, making it harder for fish to see the fishermen.

Abstract:
What makes the fisherman go to the dock, time and again, despite seemingly endless amounts of time waiting, the rigors of the wind whipping and heat of the sun baking? The reason the author revealed, anyone dedicated to this sport would well understand.

Abstract:
In this article the author is discussing how the members of the Esox Genus or more importantly the redfin pickerel have y-shaped bones that can make it difficult to eat for predators and that includes us. In this article the authors discusses that Ray Atkinson has ways to properly prepare and cook the redfin pickerel so that it is safe to eat. Atkinson states that you should season and create small cuts on the flesh and then bread the fish. After cooking you just need to grab the spine of the cooked fish and pull through the open rib cage and the spine and ribs should come out smoothly. Atkinson states that the redfin pickerel is the best fish to eat in fresh water. They state that everyone they knew also loved to eat the fish but now they are one of the only ones that still enjoy the fish today.
