Raising Awareness

     There is a big problem in preserving freshwater fish populations. I think a problem with preserving natural freshwater fish populations is the lack of awareness. I do not see a lot of marketing for programs that help with freshwater fishing. I have to go out on my own to see anything about this problem. Most people will not do this unless it is put in their face.      Saltwater fishing has made a huge awareness for population and promoting the growth of fish populations. There is even a documentary on Netflix called Seaspiracy. This is great for highlight problems in our oceans. However, there are more freshwater fish then saltwater fish. Even though there may be more freshwater fish, these species are dying out at an alarming rate. The bigger species, like catfish and others, are experiencing declining rates very rapidly. There needs to be more money going into these freshwater programs.      These freshwater fish are a source of food f...

Stu Hott Interview

 I interviewed my friend, Stu Hott, about his trip to Percy Preist Lake outside of Nashville, Tennessee. He did a variety of techniques to catch different types of fish throughout the lake. Q: How long was your trip to Percy Preist Lake? A: I was on a five-day fishing expedition to Percy Preist. This allowed me to fish different techniques and try for an abundant of species. Alos, it gave me the opportunity to have more chances to get more fish even if a day or two was not as good. Q: What types of fishing did you do? A: I did three types of fishing while I was in Tennessee. I participated in open water, jugging, and bank fishing. Q: Which type of fishing did you have the most success with? A: Open water fishing was the technique I got the most action with. I caught a lot of largemouth bass and crappies in the open water. Q: What bait did you use that was so successful? A: For bass, the best one I used was a purple chatter bait. This really popped with the fish and was very popular...

Freshwater Fish Extinct

      Freshwater fish becoming completely extinct soon is completely hypothetical, but it would destroy communities and people's livelihood. Even though they are not in danger of completely disappearing in the near future , species numbers are declining at a sig nificant rate in recent years. This has caused bigger species to be cut in half. By these bigger fishing declining at such a rapid rate, there will only be smaller fish growing in species population size.        Freshwater fish is vital to ecosystems, economies, and the way people live their lives. People would no longer have a valid food source from freshwater with species dying out and fungi overtaking ecosystems. Communities would not survive without certain exports of freshwater fish for not only food, but for business as well. Some areas depend on freshwater fish for commercialization for tourism. Losing this tourism would destroy small towns and their communities forever.     ...
