钓鱼小记

趁着和煦的阳光,早上起来去st. Georgia Island 去钓鱼。但其实是一无所获,都是些小黄花,尽管是只有这些,估计还被别人给的鲨鱼咬的死伤大半。

总结下来,这次初试经验就是:
1. 要带拖车,如果东西多,在断桥上走走可不是容易事
2. 大的水桶,其实用cooler + 冰 更好,但是福州人的想法就是用水更保鲜。。。
3. 多几套渔具,这样就不会在一套渔具上多花心思,免得鱼有些风吹草动就慌忙的提杆
4. 带把刀,钓大鱼或者鲨鱼,别人的经验就是用小块鲜鱼做饵料,而有刀的话就可以现场取材了。
5. 防晒霜,如果不怕大太阳,那就尽情地暴晒吧。
6. 当然钓鱼可能也有时间和地点问题,这样的选择就相当技术化了。

我们这种垂钓(这个词太恬静了),应该被称为recreational fishing(or sport fishing),与commercial fishing 相对应。而至于是淡水(fresh water)还是咸水(salt water),又有相应的细分。在Florida 还有本专门的Florida Sport Fishing的双月刊杂志,看来真是门学问。

关于钓鱼的时间,take me fishing 站点有个比较general 的讨论,基本上是认为晚上(afternoon to evening)比较适合钓鱼,因为经过白天的日晒,水面的温度升高,鱼比较愿意到水面觅食。还有就是潮汐时间是最适合钓鱼的。
In general, the best fishing is almost always on a rising or falling tide—not dead low or dead high tide when there is little or no water movement.
同样,那个站点也给出了salt water的一些有用的FAQ
What causes fish to bite?
Five factors contribute to fish behavior: water temperature, current, weather, structure and bait. Determining what combinations of these factors will trigger a bite is the central challenge in fishing.
What hooks should I choose?
Choose a hook that matches the size of the lure or bait that you will be using. Also consider the size and feeding technique of the fish you will be targeting.
Should I use artificial or natural bait?
While natural bait is tough for any fish to turn down, there are many situations where an artificial lure works better. In some cases, a lure will imitate the target fish's natural prey. Also, natural bait can be difficult to obtain and maintain. Many anglers choose to use artificial lures because they present a greater challenge to catching fish.
