I don't know of any reason to keep those fish you intend to eat at
the
end of a day's trip in the livewell.

Because 1/2 a day equals 12 hours. If you're out fishing that long
and
bluefish are the reward, you keep them half a day fresher. Ice is
fine,
but live is better. Your mileage may vary. Matter of fact, it WILL

1/2 day does not equal 12 hours when fishing. 1/2 day boats in San
Diego
do about 6 hours and the 3/4 day boats that go to the Coronados in
MX
leave at 6am and return at about 6 pm.

When I say 1/2 day, it means 12 hours. I don't care what a bunch of
California pansies use as the definition.

When you go for a day fishing, do you spend 24 hours out in the lake?

Oddly enough, I have done it.

If someone tells you they'll stop by in "about 1/2 hour" and they arrive
in 20 minutes, do you have convulsions?


No, but wife's do.


I'm heading out for 5/24ths of a day of fishing. There's a particular spot
on Lake Ontario where unconscious smallmouth have been seen. The NY DEC has
determined that overcrowding is the problem. They recorded a series of odd
coconut sounds underwater. It was the fish's heads colliding. I have to do
something about their numbers.
