fish stories

Monday, August 20th, 2007

IS the typical fishing scene still composed of a line with a worm on one end and a fool on the other? Probably not, since fihsermen now use sophisitcated takle, special lures, and all kinds of high tech equip.

Of course, fish still manage to get away, but some that have been caught are record setters.

From Nova Scotia, where in 1979 a bluefin tuna weighing 1496 pounds was snared ( usually they are 30 to 40 pounds )

To Gerogia, where 1932 record for a freshwater largemouth bass still stands at 22 punds 4 ounces ( the usual is 1 to 2 pounds ) the records are truly amazing!.

Here are some examples of all time monster catches, the average weights are provided in parantheses.

Striped bass ( 3-8 lb ) . . . . . . 78 lb. 8 oz., New Jersey, 1982

World Record Striped Bass

Bluefish ( 2-5 lb ) . . . . . . . 31 lb, 12 oz., North Carolina, 1972

Atlantic cod ( 5-10 lb ) . . . . . . . 98 lb, 12 oz., New HAmsphisre, 1969

Hammerhead shark ( 75-100 lb ) . . . . . . . 991 lb., Florida. 1982

happy fishing!.

Between overfishing and the shark fin industry, we will probably never see fish like this again in our lifetimes.

Ci-dessous, en cliquant au bon endroit et accompagne d’une pression correcte sur le bouton de la souris, vous pourrez savourer un titre complet de son album BLUEGRASS LONG DISTANCE : “Jonathan Cartland”. Ce titre est issu d’un 33 tours que j’avais enregistre et mixe a Paris en 1977, au mythique studio HAUTEFEUILLE situe au 12 boulevard St Michel a Paris. Ce creuset a talents se trouvait dans une cave a l’acoustique aussi etonnante exceptionnelle, mais malheureusement disparu un dimanche matin sous les eaux de la Seine durant une crue plus severe qu’a l’ordinaire, nul n’est parfait… J’etais d’ailleurs assiste par Christophe Bertoux, helas lui aussi parti trop tot. Ce morceau extrait du vinyle en question, a ete remasterise par mes soins.
