Fishing Vs. Hunting

Hunting is a common activity all around the world, and if performed properly, can have many benefits to us and the rest of the planet. The art of hunting has been around since the beginning of time. Living off of the land used to be a necessity across the world, until the mass production of food came along. In America, people do not usually need to hunt to survive. However, the population of animal species needs to be controlled. Too many of one type of animal can cause a drastic change to any ecosystem. Food supplies decline quickly, leaving many animals without food. Hunting can help keep the population of a group of animals at a good number, making the lives of the other

Hunting is something we've done since we've been on this planet. We used to do it out of necessity, but in the modern world we do it for many other reasons. As technology has increased, we have developed different methods of hunting. These methods have carried over to today, but two have prevailed: bowhunting and rifle hunting. These methods are both hunting--obviously--but they're different in almost every other sense. Bowhunting and rifle hunting are different based on the weapon used, the way you hunt, and your connection with the animal and the land around it; however, the same in the way the respective methods bring people together.

Hunting allows a person to reconnect with nature. For many, hunting isn’t just about the chase and the thrill of catching their game. For many, hunting

Hunting nowadays is becoming more popular around the world. There are many different types of animals that you can

Although you may spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on all the gear and clothing and what not you use to hunt with, hunting can be a great way to put food on the table on a very tight budget. It is cheaper to buy a tag and hunting license for the animal you are going to be hunting than it is to go to the store and buy the meat and you don't get near as much from the store with your money as you would if you were to go hunting and get the animal yourself. One deer or elk or whatever big game animal you go after could feed your family for several months, maybe even a year as to where if you were to buy food from the store it might only last you and your family a couple weeks. So hunting is a cheap and easy way to feed your family if you are on a very tight

Many people have misconceptions about hunting. One such misconception is that hunting is easy and any person can go sit in the woods and wait for an animal to cross the hunter’s path. However, people who believe this are sorely mistaken. Hunting is not just sitting in the woods with a rifle; there are many other aspects that must be considered. An individual must have all preparations complete, purchase or gather the equipment needed, and know what to listen for while in the woods.

I personally agree that hunting is extremely necessary. I think that whether it's for food or for a sport it doesn't make a difference. I hunt so I can personally say that it is important and I can see why some people enjoy it. It takes a variety of skills and a lot of patients. It also does keep animal populations down which lowers the amount of road killed deer. This is extremely beneficial for drivers because when you hit a deer it can do a lot of damage to the vehicle and endanger the occupants of the

There are many different types of tournaments that one can fish in. It all depends on the type of tournament that the angler enters. There are local tournaments, just-for-fun tournaments, and professional tournaments that include Bassmaster and Fishing League Worldwide (FLW).

Fishing can bring you a sense of peace and keep you physically fit. You don't have to be rich to participate in the sport, but you do need certain gear. From a fishing rod to extra bait, here is a list of the things you'll need if you want to start participating in this fun sport, or if you want to get your children into fishing. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/09/06/benefits-of-fishing_n_5754408.html

Hunting has been around for as long as people have been on this earth and if that were taken away completely some people would lose that sense of nature to hunt. Hunting is people who kill animals for food, clothing, or sport. In 2011 13.7 million people, 6% of the U.S. population 16 years old and older, hunted. Big game like elk, deer and wild

The first difference between gun hunting and bowhunting are the hunting seasons themselves. The gun hunting season in Michigan goes from November 15 to November 30. This only allows gun hunters a short two week time period to go hunting. Because of how popular gun hunting is and how short the season is hunters flock to the woods during this two week period. Many people enjoy hunting for the piece and quiet they get to enjoy away from the noises and hustle and bustle of everyday life. Gun hunters do not get to enjoy this peace and quiet however. With orange clad hunters roaming through the woods and the boom of gun shots ringing out across the landscape the woods are anything but peaceful. Oftentimes gun

WMA’s usually require a Big Game WMA Permit in order to hunt big game, in addition to the regular hunting and big game licenses. Big game typically requires a tag for each animal harvested. Tags must be purchased in addition to the hunting license, and the number of tags issued to an individual is typically limited. In order to hunt or trap small game on WMAs individuals are required to have one of the following permits in addition to the regular hunting or trapping license: Annual Senior Citizen Permit; Annual Small Game only; 1-Day Small Game and Waterfowl ; or Annual Small Game and Waterfowl. Youths, ages 6-16, must be accompanied by a permitted adult, 21 years of age or older, who must remain in a position to take immediate control of the hunting device except as otherwise noted. WMAs with a "WF" after the name require either an Annual Small Game and Waterfowl permit; or a 1-Day Small Game and Waterfowl permit in addition to a regular hunting license and Waterfowl license. However, Lifetime Sportsman License and Sportsman License holders, and youths age 6-16 who are accompanied by an adult with a valid permit, do not need a permit. Annual resident hunting licences can cost anywhere between $5 to $160 depending on how old you are and what game you want to hunt.

Some would say hunting is simply a sport, while others would say it provides assistance in

Going along the idea about animal involvement this brings me to another sport on the list I questioned, noodling. This particular activity would in a sense be considered hunting but however, the means at which the animal is captured is vastly different. This type of hunting is focused on capturing catfish in a very peculiar fashion. The athlete essentially coats his arm in chum then sticks it underwater waiting for a nibble. The catfish generally come and engulf the person’s entire arm thus successfully capturing a catfish. One of the main reasons why I would not classify this as a sport is because it is a very unskilled form

The many great things about hunting is not only the calmness of the wilderness and the rush of being so close to many wild animals. There are many different ways to hunt. I am going to classify the four types of hunting: shotgun, rifle, muzzleloader, and bow and arrow. The reason I am classifying this is because most people just think of hunting as a verb and don’t know that there are so many different ways to go about hunting.
