Here's yet another of the many daily attacks from Dan,"

Calling Dan's legitimate question an 'attack post' is another attack by
you, Harry!

Perfectly fine, but Harry is a pansy.

"oh - oh - the fishy is going to bite me..."

~~ sheesh ~~

ROTF!

I lost a quarter of an inch of my left thumb to a bluefish. I kid you
not. Had I not duct-taped it back on, I would have lost my thumb tip for
sure.

Ouch...

I had one latch onto the meaty part of my left hand one - right under
the thumb. Took me a while to get it off.

The other day, I forgot to wear my filet glove when I gilled the thing
and it cut two fingers.

And that's not something that I can afford to get infected what with
all the chemo and stuff.

But hey - life goes on - live a little. :)

Well, at least you're now admitting the reason you keep bringing up my
almost 93 yr old mother.
You should be ashamed of yourself.

My wife was horrified when I got home and she realized all the blood in
the boat belong to me. :}

Just a nice semi-overcast day on the Bay. Caught about 15 spot on
Berkley bloodworms and very small hooks, dumped them into the
livewell, and went in search of big fish via livelining. Caught a few
blues, one decent sized striper, but he escaped. Neighbor who
accompanied me caught a keeper striper. May try again tomorrow if the
forecasted wind doesn't materialize. Didn't see Herring out there.

I understand keeping live bait alive in a livewell. I also understand
keeping fish alive in one when tournament fishing.

With that understanding........what is the purpose of keeping fish
intended to be on the dinner table in one knowing you eventually have
to put them on ice during the trip from the boat to home (knowing they
will die along the way)? I have no problem keeping my catch fresh on
ice in the cooler throughout a day of fishing.

Lastly....how do you start up and then shut down a livewell after a day
of fishing?

I never had a livewell so excuse the questions.

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 vary.



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.

Naw. Usually I buy a block of frozen Herring and grind it up for chum.


Here, though, if you put out a tiny piece of bloodworm, the Herring will
bite on it 20 times a day, apparently. (My filter collects headers, not
contents.)
Trouble is...in here, the 'Herring' sh*ts all over the place and polutes the
entire newsgroup.

How's your mom today, Don?

I'm cutting you and several others a new deal. You are temporarily out
of my bozo bin.

Beginning today, if you and the others I have released behave
reasonably, I will treat you the same way.

But when you post one of your snide little insults, as you have above,
I'll simply call you out on it thusly:


Here's yet another of the many daily attacks from
______________________, and if you count them up, you will
see what he adds here in "boating" content.



The __________________, obviously, will be reserved for the name of the
insulter.


Here's yet another of the many daily attacks from Herring, and if you
count them up, you will see what he adds here in "boating" content.

Harry, if asking Don how is mom is doing is an 'attack', then how would you
classify this:

"Trouble is...in here, the __________ ****s all over the place and polutes
the entire newsgroup."


(Insert name of your choosing in the _________)

Your constant repetition of the "mom" question aimed at Don is nothing
more than an insult.

Here's yet another of the many daily attacks from John Herring, a
frequent rec.boats poster, and if you count them up, you will see how
little
he adds here in boating/fishing content or interesting reading.

You are quite wrong.

Here's yet another of the many daily attacks from Harry Krause, a
frequent rec.boats poster, and if you count them up, you will see how
little he adds here in boating/fishing content or interesting reading.

We all know why you play the mom card. You dont give a tinkers dam about
his mom.

So what we have here is yet another of the many daily attacks from John
Herring,
a frequent rec.boats poster, and if you count them up, you will see how
little he adds here in boating/fishing content or interesting reading.

As a matter of fact, I do. I went through the aging and dying mom bit a few
years ago. Plus, it diverts him from his attack posts, which you seem to
insist on.

You turn it on in either recycle, auto or constant circulation, prime
the circulator pump which on my boat means backing up a little to
force a little water into the line, then let it run.

When you are finished, put it in Empty or Drain position and it
empties.

Ask Scott how it works - works pretty good.

With respect to keeping a fish fresh, live wells will keep a fish
alive until you get time to bleed and gut it. Much better than ice.

Makes sense. Our live bait (minnows) die from lack of oxygen in the water
combined with rising water temps when kept in a bucket, even with a battery
powered air pump in the bucket. A dead minnow is easier for a perch to
steal off your hook than a live one as the dead ones deteriote in body flesh
integrity pretty fast and come off the hook easily.- Hide quoted text -

If you don't fish, can you use a live well for a cooler? that is if
you pack it with ice?

You can and you can, but...most livewells are not insulated like coolers
and therefore your ice won't last nearly as long.
