Archaeologists study records from all time periods of human history, and most of us in the US consider anything 50 years or older as at least having potential significance under federal and other regulations. She's studying excavated collections from the turn of the century, late 1800s to early...

I have a friend and fellow archaeologist located in Portland (affiliated with PSU) who is studying some historic food remains in the northwest, and she's finding some fish bones in the archaeological record that she can't identify. She wants a shad specimen to de-flesh and study its bones to see...

Since the one in the video might be the only one, or if not, there can't be many...why not just leave them the $%^& alone?? :)

Holy cow...you should start a new thread for this..

I've caught channel cats just downstream from the Gilbert boat ramp, which is still open. Simple carolina rig with a small hook & 1/3 of nightcrawler, great odds of catching one if you fish there on an early AM outgoing tide. All my cats/bullheads on Sauvie Is have been ~1.5 lb or under, but...

Well you said "carp catfish or sunfish" which to me sounds like you'd be throwing a bait rig with worms or something, not corn for carp or a spinner. My bad. And maybe you've never seen or heard of a sturgeon breaking or pulling in someone's rig, but I've personally seen it happen out there on...

Rules aside for a second, in my experience fishing the area I think you're fishing, I would personally never want to use two rods in that way. Sturgeon bite readily there on pretty much any bait you'd be throwing for catfish, carp etc, and so a large sturgeon could (and probably eventually would...

Man this sounds fun, thanks for the tips

I'll chime back in here. I believe that it's immature to think legal issues like this are black and white (not accusing anyone here of doing so by the way, that only happens on IFish ha ha!). Especially without a biologist who knows way more about this stuff than any of us explaining the...

Are you from Europe or just watching too much Youtube haha? Chumming: Putting any substance, not attached to the hook, in the water to attract fish. I apologize for the snark, but I'm just not sure what's not clear to you about this extremely clear reg. If it's not attached to the hook it's...

Nice scutes yo

You can catch them in the states, just a bit of a hike (to Miami)

Oh man that's kinda cool, kinda sad at the same time

The Hagg otters are a treat to watch if you're lucky enough to see them. Most of my experiences with them have been at first light on the dam when no one else is around. They get quite close and seem to be inquisitive and vocal towards humans (at least in that context). I saw one come up with a...
