|
|
| 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? |

|
| The Sea Anemone looks like a flower, but it’s actually a carnivorous animal that eats small fish and shrimp. |
|
|
|
| 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. |
|
|
| In three decades, the world's oceans will contain more discarded plastic than fish when measured by weight, researchers say. |

|
| As of 2020, there were 34,000 known fish species around world. That’s more than the number of species in all other vertebrates: birds, reptiles, mammals, and amphibians combined. |

| Even Catfish are finicky |
| Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

|
| 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. |

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

Author Name: @TheWarKitchen

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

Cabo Fish Report
August 22-28, 2011
WEATHER: Wow, almost a repeat of last weeks weather, who would have thought that? Strangely enough, it is because of clouds and a bit of rain instead of bright and sunny. Once again we were in mostly cloudy conditions and had a bit of rain at the end of the week. A series of small storms moved over us, coming from the mainland and brought rain to the mountains and a bit of a sprinkle to us. Even without the sun shining brightly it was easy to get sunburned as many people found out! Our nighttime low were in the mid 80's while the daytime highs were approaching 100 degrees.
WATER: One of those small storms that blew in from the mainland brought Tuesday noon misery to some anglers who decided to come in and hunker down. The storm passed in two hours but blew hard, bringing in 5 foot wind swells with gusts to 40 mph. Here and then gone! The rest of the week was fine with swells slowly increasing in size over the week and coming from the south. They were spaced far enough apart that they were comfortable, Water on the Cortez side averaged 88 degrees inshore and 87 degrees offshore. On the Pacific side the inshore water was 83-84 degrees while the water offshore was averaging 82 degrees.
BAIT: Caballito and Mullet were the baits of the week with no Mackerel being found due to the warm waters. Everything was the normal $3 per bait. There were also some decent Sardinas to the north around Palmilla at $25 a scoop.
FISHING:
BILLFISH: Striped Marlin were found on the Pacific side this week, but not in any great numbers as would be expected with our water temperatures. Scattered around, some boats were able to release two fish, a lot of boats released one and many, many others had no luck. Small Blue Marlin were scattered in the area of the 1150 and they did not get a lot of pressure since most boats fished the Pacific side of the Cape. I heard of at least one Black Marlin being released this week, caught on down-rigged live Bonita at the Gorda Bank it was estimated at 300 pounds.
YELLOWFIN TUNA: This has been an on and off fishery for the past week. Based on some other reports I went to the Imam Banks twice this week hoping to get into some of the reported 60-100 pound Tuna that were said to be there. Chum hard with Sardines, use 40 pound flouro-carbon leader and they were supposed to bite. Not a working proposition for me, but I did see a few Tuna that averaged 25 pounds caught, as well as a few Dorado and a couple of Marlin. On Friday I was off to the south side of the San Jaime Bank and watched a purse seiner from Mazatlan named the “Aztec 10” brail 40-100 pound tuns from their net after making a set. We did not get any Tuna that day. Saturday things turned around and the Tuna bite took off from the shore to 15 miles out between the arch and the Golden Gate Bank. Many boats managed to limit out on fish that averaged 25 pounds. Of course, I went to the Imam banks instead, oops.
DORADO: Later in the week anglers were getting as many Dorado as they wanted if they worked the the pacific shoreline north of the Golden Gate. Most of them were small but there were quite a few that were in the 15 pound class. Shark buoys to the south of the Golden Gate held some nice fish as well. There were scattered Dorado reported from the area of the 1150 during the middle of the week.
WAHOO: Once again a few fish were reported, and the probable reason was the number of boats fishing inshore on the Pacific side for Dorado. Have enough boats hit the area and chances are one or two of them are going to find a Wahoo.
INSHORE: Just like last week, inshore action this week consisted of Bonita, Skipjack, some nice schools of Roosterfish that averaged 15 pounds with scattered Dorado and Yellowfin. Most of the action early in the week took place on the Pacific side from the lighthouse up to Los Arcos.
FISH RECIPE: My recipe has been taking too much space so if you want to see it, check out my wordpress blog a little later in the week, or subscribe to the blog and you will receive an email as soon as I post it. Sorry about this last weeks no show, but we did not get any fish to cook, everyone took it home!
NOTES: It was nice to see the Dorado and Yellowfin Tuna show themselves again. After a sparse couple of weeks where you could get some nice fish, but no numbers, anglers were having a lot of fun with numbers of fish. Just a quick reminder, most boats carry some ice, but if you are going after Tuna, make sure there is plenty on board, you may have to purchase more just in case!
Until next week, tight lines!
I will be posting more to my blog now, please go to http://captgeo.wordpress.com/ and subscribe, you will be sent a notice every time I post a new article. Please feel free to send suggestions or if you have any ideas for articles. Thanks George
