| Not all fishes lay eggs. |
| Fishes like split fins, surf-perches, and some sharks instead carry and give birth to live young. Scientists have also discovered that the embryos of some of these fishes actually consume each other in the womb. How’s that for creepy fish facts? |

| Fishes hear with both their ears and their skeletons, sensing the vibrations of sound in the water. |
| Scientists even suspect that sharks can clearly hear sounds from over 3 km away. |

| Fish have built in radar? |
| Built-in Radar Many species of fish have a powerful sense organ called the lateral line running across their body. It can detect motion in the water, allowing them to hunt prey, avoid predators, and navigate in the dark. |

Looking for the Excalibur (Bill Dance signature series) Fat Free Fry in Crawfish. The lure is 2' long and the body is practicly see thru (with the exception for where the crawfish design and color has been airbrushed) I would like to purchase as many as you have. I will take old, new, it doesn't matter. This is all my boyfriend fishes with and he is almost out of these.
Thanks

Aug 1, 2023; 07:26AM - They Don't Teach You This About Honey Bees in Schools

Tip&Trick Description 1:
1. Honey is the only food that has every single substance to sustain life.
2. Honey doesn't ever turn bad. You can actually eat honey that was found in Egyptian tombs
thousands of years ago. (if you dare) ‼️
3. A single bee produces just HALF a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime. Hard work.
4. The darker the honey, the more powerful its medicinal properties and the less sweet it is.
The inverse also holds true.
5. Honey is the original antibiotic. It's been used as an antibacterial and antifungal for
generations.
6. Honey is a natural sleeping pill. Consuming honey aids with the production of melatonin.
Drink a warm cup of chamomile and take a shot of honey to the dome. Game changer.
7. You don't need to wash your honey dipper if you leave it in the jar of honey itself. Honey
is a natural preservative, so bacteria will not grow.
8. To make one pound of honey, bees need to visit 2 million flowers. 2 MILLION.

Tip&Trick Description 2:
9. Honey is the only food made by an insect that's actually eaten by BOTH the insect and us.
We're literally best friends.
10. Honey is one of the original remedies for an everyday cough & allergies. Local honey is
said to be useful in curing seasonal allergies.
11. Bees don't sleep. Work hard. Play hard.
12. Honey is excellent on burns. Cool the burn in running water. Pat it dry. Apply raw, organic
honey. It will speed up healing and even reduce any eventual scarring.
13. Babies under 12 months of age shouldn't ingest honey (their immune system isn't yet strong
enough to handle a certain strain of bacteria that's quite prevalent in honey)
14. Honey, like a lot of 'animal-based' products have a myriad of topical and oral applications
that make it incredibly versatile. Nature's all purpose drug.
15. The only honey that exists in my world is raw, organic unfiltered honey. To pasteurize
honey is to ruin the work of thousands of bees. You are literally a war criminal.
16. Everyone raves about Manuka honey, but the real ones have tried Jarrah. If you know, you
know.
17. Honey is one of the best hydration sources in the world. Honey > Pre Workout.
18. Honey is nature's moisturizer. |

18. Honey is nature's moisturizer.
19. Royal jelly is a special compound that worker bees secret; so potent it can transform an
ordinary bee into a queen bee. It's like a concentrated, supercharged version of honey.
20. The honey bee is a crucial part of our ecosystem. Without their help, over a third of all
food eaten in America wouldn't exist.
21. Honey should be a key ingredient in shampoos. Cleopatra did it. Why shouldn't we?
22. Bees communicate with other bees by dancing. That's how they signal where the best flowers
are. Seems familiar...
23. Honey is a source of flavanoids and phenolic acids — antioxidants which have been studied
to have incredible anti-inflammatory and even anti-cancer properties.
24. The hexagonal shape of honeycomb cells is a MARVEL. How did they know to use hexagons?
Hexagons are the most efficient shape to store the maximum amount of honey with the least
amount of wax needed to build. Geniuses.
To the anti-honey community:
When we eat honey we are NOT stealing from bees. It's a symbiotic relationship. We protect them
from the harsh conditions of nature, giving them a safe space to have their fun and make their
vomit.
They are so happy that they usually produce more honey than they could ever physically consume.
By consuming their excess honey, we are actually helping them restore balance in the hive.
So yes people, eat more honey. Buy all the varieties. Gift it to everyone around you. And
always remember to give thanks to our wonderful striped yellow friends

Anglers –
August 18, 2019
The word travels quickly these days, as
more number of anglers were
arriving after hearing about reports of
yellowfin tuna finally biting, as
well as wide open dorado and some blue
marlin action. So we saw the
sportfishing fishing were busier this
past week, weather cooperated, light
winds, moderate ocean swells, no
tropical storms to deal with. There is
a
new system just developing off Southern
Mexico, late next week we will know
what happens with this, could finally
get some measurable rainfall. This
week the humidity increased, a couple
of mornings we felt very light
drizzle, did not amount to much at all.
Ocean temperature ranged from 78 to
84 degrees.
Bait suppliers were still able to find
the schooling sardinas just north of
the marina jetty, also there were some
caballito, slabs of squid and
ballyhoo. Most charters were now
working the fishing grounds from the
Gordo
Banks’ and north to Vinorama.
The best chance at the yellowfin tuna
was inside of Iman Bank, near La
Fortuna and the Twenty-five spot,
anglers were have chances at one, two
of
three tuna up to 65 lb. Sometimes hard
to keep away from schooling dorado
which were on these same grounds, most
were small sized and being released,
though a few nicer fish mixed in.
Outside of Cabo San Lucas we heard of a
few cow sized yellowfin tuna and there
were reports of some larger tuna
seen on the Outer Gordo Banks, this
time of year things can change rapidly.
Early morning there were a few snapper,
cabrilla and amberjack accounted
for on yo-yo jigs over the high pots,
though with the calm, hot and humid
conditions most anglers were wishing to
move around some to cool off.
Blue marlin were hitting throughout the
region, striking on trolled lures,
a few striped marlin as well, we also
heard of at least one 300 lb. black
marlin that was landed from a small
panga. Most of the blue marlin we have
seen were in the 120 to 250 lb. range.
Not much inshore action being done
now, time of year that this action
fades out. We did see a few dogtooth
snapper this week, though these were
found over same high spots where
charters were drift fishing. A handful
of
pompano, bonito and yellow snapper were
found off shallow rock piles.
The combined sportfishing fleet
launching out of the panga area from
Puerto Los Cabos Marina sent out an
estimated 84 charters for the week and
anglers reported an approximate fish
count of: 1 black marlin, 13 striped
marlin, 10 blue marlin, 420 dorado, 3
wahoo, 105 yellowfin tuna, 11 leopard
grouper, 18 Mexican bonito, 16 yellow
snapper, 3 barred pargo, 4 pompano,
11 amberjack, 3 dogtooth snapper, 5
roosterfish, 9 jack crevalle and 24
triggerfish.
Good Fishing, Eric
