Sorry wasn't clear, I mean the scales from the minnows I am using as bait. They are very thin and small and I keep finding them stuck to me after multiple scrubbings. I don't have a problem with the scales from the fish I catch.

I've not used minnows since I was a kid. Are the ones you use still alive?

History of the Condom
In 1272, the Muslim Arabs invented the condom, using a goat's lower intestine.
In 1873, the British somewhat refined the idea, by taking the intestine out of the goat first.

Finally got a hitch installed on my car. We used to have one family truck for taking the boat out, but then I moved.

I view fishing as a way to get out on the water with some friends and some beer and recline in the sun for the afternoon. If I catch something, great, if not who cares.

If I go north a bit I mostly fly fish for bass far and perch or bottom fish for cats. South and I go for redfish. Can also beach cast for channel cats or go for sand sharks if I feel like it.

Salt and fresh license runs about 15 for the year.

Also nice to do some crabbing and cast net for shrimp if you get the right spot.

Cleaning birds, mammals and fish are all quite similar.

Cripes, I wish. Here in California, it's now $44.85 for a freshwater license, plus $5.14 to do ocean fishing south of Santa Barbara, plus another $13.78 for a second rod.

Tell me about it! Over $50 just to go fishing and that doesn't include the bait, beer, food (I need to eat every few hours :/) but damn I need to go fishing!!

Considering the fine for getting caught fishing without a license ($500ish) most folks go ahead and pay for the license.

Amusingly, the fines are one of the main sources of funds to pay the rangers.

I still cannot get the hang of fishing in the Lake. I think I need to take a more scientific approach to water temperature/conditions/time of day.

"The" Lake - as in Lake Erie? Big bodies of water a challenge, yeah. But I find rivers just hard, really. Other than catfish, I don't think I've ever really caught much in rivers.

Have you ever read the In-Fisherman? Back in the days of print, it was a great, "scientific" fishing magazine which helped me catch a lot of fish. Looks like the website maintains that, but I didn't spend a lot of time there.

Yeah Lake Erie. I haven't even looked at fishing in a river. The ones around here are so shallow that they have hard seasons for lack of a better term. Once summer rolls around they are too hot and shallow to support a thriving population so if you don't catch them during the melt then they are fish ghost towns.
