Fishy Pictures

[Andy]

One for Carpmad 







Fishermen on the wharf in Noto peninsula Japan. They use the blue plastic thing loaded with shrimp-based bait to lure lots of fish towards the hooks on the line. Then, in the confusion some fish get hooked. The one being held is the unwanted variety that doesn't taste good apparently. Most of the fish were quite small but there is a few big'uns out there that they are all after.

similar method of fishing is used here as well, actually although from what I know it's illegal to have more than one hook on the line.

cheers andy
i dont know what kind of fish they are but i bet its fiddly eating them 
were only allowed to use one hook per rod over here for freshwater fishing but im allowed to use three rods at a time

when we go deep sea fishing we use mackeral feathers theres normaly around 6 hooks on each line and the mackeral just go for them thinking there fish you can even catch one on every hook and they are great to eat but we use them for bait and take home any thats left at the end of the day its a great day out

ive not been able to get out fishing much this year but il try and dig out some recent pix
im gutted as i went into town today and remembered the thread on pictures of the place you live but didnt think to take my camera i could of got some quite nice pictures of constable style scenery as its where he done most of his work as far as i know,
i even walked past the mill where he painted his most famouse picture , but next time i wont forget
