    face the hunting process. In contrast, the opposition argues harming fish through the hunting process is simply unavoidable and fish are oblivious to any harm (Metcalfe 2009). The strongest argument in favor of humane-hunting methods is that the fishing process leads to the death of many fish considered “by-catch”. These “non-target” fish have low chance of survival because of the harmful effects of hauling operations (Metcalfe 2009). In addition, many targeted fish are damaged in the process of

    Do You Need That to Survive: Fishing Tackle and Pole A more relevant question might be is do you need to carry fishing tackle and pole in your survival kit.

Fishing tackle doesn’t take up much room and you can

    she did and she always answered with “A good fisher never reveals their secret.” People from all over would come to see her fish but she knew the publicity would never change who she was. That night as she fell asleep she remembered she was going fishing tomorrow and could not wait. She even had dreams of what it would be like. About 5:00 that next morning she was awoken by a man banging on her door. He said really fast “Scarlett your lake has been drained” and he walked away. She knew she had to
