Wind Reel

One end of a wire wound on a reel is fastened to the top of a pole 35 feet high; two men holding the reel on a?

rod on their shoulders five feet above the level ground walk away from the pole at the rate of five miles and hour keeping the wire straight. How far are they from the pole when the wire is unwinding at the rate of one mile an hour?
Any help on this will be much appreciated, I have tried similar triangles but obviously my calculus needs more work. Thank You.

The difference in height between the top of the shoulder and the top of the pole is 35 - 5 = 30'

Let x be the distance that the men are from the pole when the wire is unreeling at 1 mile an hour.

Thus the hypotenuse has to be 5x long to obtain the ratio of speeds, so now you have Pythagoras theorem (5x)^2 = x^2 +30^2.

Solve in the usual way.

Boston Terrier Questions?

This is going to be a little long, but I would appreciate any help on these topics anyone can offer. So, thank you in advance.
A little background: I've had my Boston for 5 days now. She was flown to me by a breeder in the Midwest. I took her to the Vet and she's perfectly healthy except a little parasite in her tummy which they prescribed Flagyl for. She's doing well on it.
I do have a few concerns though in general, and not sure if they should even be concerns or if they are just genetic traits of the dog.
She has this cough that almost sounds like gagging. She starts to cough a bit and then opens her mouth in a gagging way and then stops. She never pukes or anything though. She obviously snorts and makes cute little noises, but it's the coughing thing that I think may be odd. But I may be wrong. She also has very dry skin and dander, and I think it makes her uncomfortable. I've given her a bath, and used conditioner.
Any advice would be great!

Ive grown up with Boston Terriers and have been around the breed for over 20 years. Ive never had any of mine (Ive had around 5) do this coughing gagging thing. Heavy breathing and snorting yes. But couging and gaging no. I recomend getting it checked by the vet, it could be a lung infection or a cold. How old is the dog? What do you feed her? Dog food has a lot to do with the conditin of a dogs skin. Check the ingredients on the bag of your dog food. If it doesn't start with meat byproducts, consider switching to something such as Candiae, California Natural, or one of the other top dog food brands. These really help improve a dogs coat, and can also help with things such as ear infections, and how often your dog deficates daily. I personally recomend Canidae, its done wonders for us.

A SCENE FROM "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire," where Professor Sprout, the herbology professor, asks the students to collect "bubutober pus" during a lesson to give to Madam Pomfrey, the school nurse:

"This'll keep Madam Pomfrey happy," said Professor Sprout, stoppering the last bottle with a cork. "An excellent remedy for the more stubborn forms of acne, bubutober pus. Should stop students resorting to desperate measures to rid themselves of pimples."

"Like poor Eloise Midgen," said Hannah Abbott, a Hufflepuff, in a hushed voice. "She tried to curse hers off."

"Silly girl," said Professor Sprout, shaking her head. "But Madam Pomfrey fixed her nose back in the end."

Admit it—haven't we all tried to pull off an Eloise Midgen and resorted to drastic measures to drive acne away? While we may not have the capabilities to curse pimples off our faces, there's certainly a long list of worse ways to remove acne.

What exactly causes acne? While it is true that stress, cosmetics and detergents (such as harsh shampoos and toothpaste) aggravate acne, they are not the direct sources of your pimples. They will only make worse an already existing condition. And do not blame your diet—chocolate and French fries will not cause acne—or your crush for the huge blemish on your nose. They have nothing to do with it at all.

Hormonal imbalance

The usual culprit behind acne is an imbalance of hormones, which causes the production of extra sebum and therefore, pimples. This could be because of your genes (if your parents were pimply in their childhood, you know who to blame) or other circumstances that could lead to this imbalance—puberty, menopause, pregnancy and monthly periods among them. So if you have a friend who has effortlessly clear skin, curse the genetic lottery and take better care of your skin instead of trying to imitate his/her (lack of) routine.

While others go directly to the source and have hormone treatments in order to lessen their acne, this can be costly and impractical in minor acne cases—sort of like swatting a fly with a nuclear bomb. Some treatments, like birthcontrol pills, have undesirable side effects such as weight gain and headaches. The more dangerous side effects include clots in blood vessels and an increased risk of breast cancer. Males who take birth-control pills suddenly find themselves saddled with a pair of breasts (while some do this intentionally, that's an entirely different story.)

A good skincare regimen will not only prevent more pimples from popping up, but will delay the onset of wrinkles and freckles. Simply washing your face just doesn't do anymore. In our more polluted environment, you will have to learn how to cleanse, tone and moisturize your skin at least once a day. Applying sunscreen even when you're not going out in the sun is also important because indoor lights also contain skin-harming rays. So if you're planning to spend extended hours in front of the computer for a term paper, make sure you've slathered on some SPF.

Old staple

If you're really going for a direct treatment of the pimple, you might want to check out an old staple: Benzoyl Peroxide.

However, Benzoyl Peroxide apparently isn't just a spot treatment. According to Dr. Bernadette Arcilla of the Philippine Dermatological Society, when faced with acne, you should treat the entire affected area with Benzoyl Peroxide, but don't overdo it! Too much of it (say, a huge dollop on top of the blemish) will dry out not just the pimple, but the surrounding skin as well, causing more damage. "The best way to apply it is to spread it evenly over the affected area, so that not only will the pimple dry out, but future breakouts will be prevented as well," Dr. Arcilla said.

Before buying a tube of treatment, said Dr. Arcilla, take note of the concentration of Benzoyl Peroxide before applying it—PanOxyl, for example, has three variants: 2.5 percent for mild acne, 5 percent for moderate acne and 10 percent for severe cases. The latter is best left for body acne, such as pimples on your back and chest, while facial acne is adequately treated by the less concentrated variants. Again, overdoing anything will cause more harm than good so always start with a smaller concentration.

Dr. Arcilla also advised patients to use medication daily—not just on a pimple, but on the entire affected area. "You should treat the skin, not the pimples. Pimples are just a symptom of something bigger," Dr. Arcilla said. "And if you treat it early, you can prevent scarring due to more blemishes."

Instead of treating just the surface, go for an acne management program. In the long-term process (which combines a good skincare regimen and acne treatment), pimples won't be gone in a week, but there is a significant 30- to 40-percent reduction of acne in one to two months. The process can be expedited with the help of your dermatologist, who can help you create an acne management program for yourself. This does take a lot more time than quick fix-acne treatments, but the results are permanent, at least.

Now, isn't that better than cursing pimples off your face?

Collecting old fishing tackle and lures is an interesting and natural extension to the sport of fishing. It has been one of the most unexploited areas of collecting in America. And, luckily there have been millions upon millions of pieces of tackle lures handcrafted and made since the early fishing days so there is still plentiful supply of nice examples to go around. To get started, try some old "general stores", drugstores (used to carry bass plugs), bait shops and hardware stores in your area, especially their storerooms, attics, basements and storage area. There has been many a treasured fishing lure turn up by feeling around a dusty top shelf storage rooms.

Many fisherman still use a vintage reel and some use them for reasons besides performance. Vintage reels are solid reels but the fact is that parts are hard to come by. Add to the fact the low gear ratio compared to the ones now, vintage reels just end up on a shelf collecting dust. There's nothing wrong with using a vintage reel for everyday fishing, these reels are what made the reels we use today. If you can find the parts for these vintage reels, by all means fish on. If not, it's best to keep it in working order.

Many collectors specialize in one type of rod, reel or lure. If you are looking for info on Bamboo Fly rods, a good book I recommend is by Michael Sinclair, The Bamboo Rod Restoration Handbook. Lots of information and drawings to help identify rod manufacturers and when the rod was built. I have also been able to identify cane rods that were not for fly fishing using the information in this book. If you want information on other types of rods I don't know of any good source other than doing internet searches. Try looking at Heddon, Shakespeare, and Wright McGill. I have found info doing research around these names.

Depth Finder

Posted by admin on January 13, 2009 under Discount Fishfinders | Be the First to Comment

Depth Finder

I have both a Garmin and Humminbird GPS/Depth finder on my boat,?

the fish arches show some in red and the others are in blue, what does thet mean?

Based on the strength of the return signal this could indicate a large fish or a group of smaller fish. Interpretation of echo returns takes a bit of experience, and you really need to read the manual. The "cone" tells you that something (fish or object) is below. but exactly where and what takes a lot of experience.

In the case of a Hummingbird 950c series is has a dual frequency DF/fish finder. The orange returns (fish) are from the 200kHz "narrow beam cone' and the Blue fish are from the 83kHz beam.

In general the more dense a return the redder the icon. But you really need to read this whole section of your manual.....

You can go to the link below, to download Hummingbird manuals.
Once I remember looking at a piling laying on the bottom for some time before I figured out what it was. I've also spotted a school of small fish, that looked like a really bad return of scattered noise. You just have to work at it. Good luck!

An ice fishing fish finder or flasher will determine water depth, show structure such as brush piles and weed beds, and most importantly identify any fish below your hole. Modern day fishing electronics will clearly mark crappies, bluegills, walleye, and perch. Actually knowing if fish are below you is a huge asset when determining the best locations. Once you have used one I guarantee you will never fish without it.

Years ago a good friend of mine informed me of a large sand pit that was giving up really nice slab crappies. Needles to say another buddy of mine and myself headed out in pursuit of these fine fish. While my buddy was anxious to start drilling holes and get started fishing I was more interested in looking down the holes with my fish finder first. After several holes were drilled I still wasn't marking any fish. Having a power auger I kept on drilling holes through the ice. Meanwhile my buddy had no faith in my flasher and started fishing. After drilling and checking a dozen or so more holes I noticed the bottom being marked by my flasher was moving. Since the bottom of a lake doesn't move up and down, I realized that I finally found them! After lowering my bait down 23 feet I caught the first slab crappie in just a few minutes, while my buddy fishing a dead hole still hadn't caught anything. After I caught few more slab crappies my buddy was next to me and didn't think I was quite so nuts anymore. The point of this story is simple, why spend time fishing when there's no fish? Using modern day ice fishing electronics you will know for sure whether there's fish in the area or not.

After fishing this sand pit for several weeks and watching these crappies with my ice fishing fish finder I soon realized that in the twilight hours when these crappies were the most active they could be anywhere in the water column from the bottom at 23 feet all the up to 10 feet below the ice. By seeing these fish on my flasher along with my jig I would raise or lower my bait to the fish and presto, another slab crappie. Needless to say after these weeks of catching crappies I was firm believer in my flasher, along with my fishing buddy.

By using an ice fishing flasher or fish finder you can also determine what type of jigging action will trigger the fish into biting. Since a flasher or fish finder will show both the fish below you and your jig simple raise your jig just above a marked the fish and start varying your jigging motion. Maybe the fish want a slow seductive jigging motion or a quicker aggressive jigging motion. The key here is that your electronics will tell you this.

If your like me and enjoy catching as many fish as possible when ice fishing you will certainly want to invest in an ice fishing fish finder or flasher this season.

I need help. What should I use for lake trout and lake bass?

If my dad's shoulder doesn't hurt him, we might go lake fishing Sunday.

What kind of bait, hooks, sinkers, leaders, line test, etc. should I use for lake-based trout and bass as well as catfish?

Catfish love cut bait fished on or near the bottom and channel cats will chase down spinnerbaits. But if dad's shoulder is hurting, you may want to stay with bait fishing until he's reeled in a few and forgot about his shoulder. You can use a 3/0 circle hook and enough weight to hold your bait in the same location so the scent has a chance to draw in the fish. When the fish eats the bait and swims away all you have to do is pick up the rod and start reeling. Check with a local bait shop to find out what baits work best for your area. You can use small minnows or shad for bait.
We are entering the best part of the fishing season when the fish are most active. Best of luck to both of you!

Fly fishing is most often done for the various species of trout that exist in the waters and streams of the Western United States. For example, a fly fishing trip to Colorado will find you catching mostly rainbow trout, but if you are fishing the Great Lakes region, you will be looking at more bass fishing than trout.

The best places for trout fishing, besides in Colorado, include North Carolina, Ontario, Northern California, and Washington. Trout prefer smooth, clear running streams and rivers that can be found in the mountains, so you’ll get some great scenery while you are fishing.

Rainbow trout can be wild and explosive fish to hook. Expect it to take some work when you land your rainbow when trying to reel it in. These fish have very colorful markings, and are a favorite food fish for many people.

Rainbows thrive in cool, clear streams and rivers. They prefer a water temperature ranging from 55 to 60 degrees. The best time to catch rainbows is in the spring and fall before spawning. They respond well to a variety of flies including spinners, streamers, and nymphs.

Brown trout don’t fight as hard as rainbows, but they are much more cunning than their cousins. They can be a challenge to hook in the first place, so use some patience if catching brown trout is your goal. They are timid fish who are very aware of their surroundings as well as any predators including you!

The ideal home for brown trout is a slow flowing stream containing lots of minnows. They like warmer water in the 60 – 70 degree range. For the larger fish, you will want to fish during darker light. They can be caught with dry flies, streamers, and stonefly nymphs

The brook trout has brilliant coloring and are smaller than their other trout relatives. They can be quite wild when hooked, so expect a bit of a fight with brook trout. They are not as plentiful as rainbows or browns, but they can be found. They prefer colder water from 40 to 50 degrees.

If you are lucky enough to hook a brook trout, you will be rewarded. The fish travel in schools, and once action begins, it can be overwhelming. In the summer, use a spinner and cast into shallow bottoms. You can also use bucktail on a sinking line to try and land one of these beauties.

Fly fishing for trout is an exciting experience for any fly fisherman. When you have a rainbow hooked and have to fight for your own leverage, the challenge can be enormous, but when you pull that baby out of the water, you will be satisfied with your performance. Seek them out and enjoy the experience of fly fishing for trout.

A certain amount of physical conditioning is needed to do any kind of serious wading. You will need do those 45-minute morning walks three or four times a week to get in shape. Wading in rivers is not the same as walking down to the corner store for the morning paper. For your own safety and enjoyment it pays to be fit.

For most fly-fishing situations, stocking foot type waders are the best because they are lightweight, easy to get on and off, and give better flexibility and comfort. The breathable type wader is the best for most wading situations. They are cool in the warmer months of the year and warm in colder water conditions when used with the proper wading underwear. However, I prefer neoprene type waders during the winter and late fall months given the cold weather and water conditions here in Oregon. Neoprene also gives the user the added benefit of flotation should you happen to fall in that icy cold water. It is also a very good idea to wear a float coat or some type life jacket just to be on the safe side during the colder months of the year.

Why are waders better than hip boots? Simply put, waders keep your back side dry when it rains, and there are those special times when fly fishing that the waders will allow you to get out farther from shore line. Many times waders will allow you to move to a better position so you can cast to that special place that holds fish.

Good quality wading shoes with felt soles are a very good investment. Better yet, felt soles wading shoes with studs or cleats are even better and a must when wading bedrock rivers, or rivers with large round rocks. Felts with studs or cleats will also help you avoid lower back pain caused by slipping and sliding around those smooth slimy rocks during a long day of fishing. Take my word for it; you do not want to spoil a destination fishing trip by being stove-up with lower back pain. So spend the extra bucks and invest in a good pair of wading shoes with felt soles and studs. If you now have wading shoes with only felt soles, you can purchase studded sandals or have a shoe shop replace your present felts with studded felts.

Did you know that most people fall down wading when they first enter the water? I learned this when I was a kid and my uncle did just that every time he took me fishing. He only had hip boots, and he always fell in just as soon as he entered the water. I couldn't understand why he even wore boots; they were always half full of water.

Here are a few wading tips my uncle could have used:

When starting out, take your time and get the feel for the conditions of the river bottom, the flow of the current and water clarity.

After several minutes in the water you may need to adjust your wading boot strings or sandal bindings. You don't want your feet slipping back and forth inside your wading boots; you need a solid firm footing while wading.

When you first enter the water, your steps should be about half the distance they would be if you were walking on dry solid ground. Keeping your feet apart about the width of your shoulders will also help you to maintain balance while in the water.

When you need to move down stream, side-step and keep your body parallel to the flow of the current.

Do not try to back out of the river, you must turn around and walk out just like you walked into the river. For example, if you are in the river and the current is flowing from your left to right, make your turn on your right foot, using it as a pivot point and let the current help make the turn with the left foot. Just do the opposite if the current is flowing from your right to left. Never try to turn into the current flow to make a turn.

Always take your time and be careful, if you are uncertain about your wading abilities be sure to wear a flotation device.

If you feel uneasy about wading for any reason, consider using a wading staff. They are inexpensive and will give you that needed third leg when you need it. You might even try making one out of that old golf club or ski pole you have gathering dust in the corner of the garage. Remember to wrap the wading staff tip with duct tape to prevent that clanging noise on the river bottom.

Please remember to be careful while you are on the river, do not harm our wonderful land, donÂ’t litter, and please practice catch and release for the next generation.

There are many ways to lure in fish to your boat. Words like rigging, chumming, and luring come to mind. However, there are many varieties when it comes to lures and trying to decipher between all of them can be a confusing process. In addition, knowing when to "chum" as oppose to "lure" can be equally challenging when you are ready to catch the most fish that you can.

When deciding whether you should lure or chum, you should be aware of what type of fish you are trying to catch. Chum is a mess to make, distribute and to store so be sure that you are using it for the right reasons. Lures are used the majority of the time, but if you are dealing with fish who heavily use their sense of smell, lures may be a waste of time. As a general rule of thumb, chum is used in order to bring fish to the boat and lures are generally used for spot fishing.

When you decide to use a lure, what type do you choose? There are many different kinds of lures and they are used in different regions for a variety of purposes. If you learn the basics then you will not have to look like a novice by reading the back of the package will perusing the aisles in the stores.

A lure is defined as an object, often designed to resemble a fish's prey, and they usually come equipped with one or more hooks that are used to catch fish. You will attach a lure to the end of your fishing line and throw it out into the water until a fish takes a bite. The one exception to the rule is the fly lure, which is used to float on the water's surface mimicking the movement of an insect. You can also troll lure behind a boat to create the appearance of a living animal in the water. Some of the different types of lures are classified as jigs, wobblers, spinner, spoon lures, plugs, fly lures, and worms.

Jigs are made of weighted metal heads and a tail that is made from animal hair, soft plastic, feathers, or rubber. A minnow can sometimes to be added or a piece of meat can be attached to the end of the hook. Jigs can be used for almost any kind of saltwater or freshwater fishing.

A spoon is a metal lure that looks similar to a bait fish. These lures are meant to be cast or to be trolled behind a moving vessel. The plastic belts are the most commonly thought of baits. They are the plastic worms that are sometimes scented in order to attract more fish. The plastic belts can be used with or without a weight, but a jig head, spinner, or a spinner bait always accompanies them.

Plugs are made from plastic or wood and can be used on top of the water. There is a separate category of plugs called diving plugs that are designed to plunge into a certain depth of the water. The spinners have blades that spin around a wire shaft, and they are made of plastic or animal hair. The spinner baits are the lures with more than one blade that spin around a safety shaft. They are characterized by 'skirts', which are made of animal hair, vinyl, rubber, and other materials.

Lastly are the poppers and flies. These baits are primarily used for panfish, trout, and bass. Fly-tying is a harder concept to learn, making these lures unique. Lures are tested and decided upon by the individual. Many lures are determined to be useful by trying them out time and time again. When you become comfortable with a certain type of lure, you will be able to expand on its possibilities, making it more individualized for your fishing purposes.

What is a good food for a Red Cap Oranda?

I know starchy stuff like the cheap flakes they sell in pet stores are bad. I'm also going away on vacation for 9 days and the auto feeder releases too much and they don't seem to sell those dissolvable things for just one fish (I did see them for 1-3 betta fish, but is that bad for a gold fish? It seemed like the same ingredients). I'm checking in stores tomorrow, so far I only looked online but the small independent pet stores don't have websites so hopefully I can find something good for those 9 days. BUT what is also a good food for the little guy? He's been having swimming issues - can't stay upright, can't control what level he is in the water, remains sideways at the top. But then sometimes he is perfectly fine. I'm going to get peas tomorrow to see if that helps, hopefully it isn't an infection :( Right now I feed him Tetra goldfish crisps, I don't like them.

Well, as for the floating, it's a swim bladder issue. A swim bladder fills and releases with gas which helps them stay boyant in the water, when they can't do this, they have a swim bladder infection. It can be genetic, especially with Goldfish it's fairly common but more likely, it's from an internal bacterial infection. The only way to cure an internal bacterial infection is anitbiotics that are typically injected by a vet. I'd find a vet who sees fish and fast. The best food for Goldfish, believe it or not, is tropical fish flakes. It's a well-balanced diet and it's really going to bring out the red hues in your fish. Get an expensive brand, Tetra is just fine, they have high quality fish products and I think you'll be impressed. For nine days, I'd recommend having someone feed your fish for you... Those slow disolving foods end up polluting your water more than you want it to. I know it's a pain in the butt but it's your best option.

Did you know that you could make your own metallic wind chimes using items that can be found in your house? All you need are metal bottle caps, some cord, bent or unused metal utensils, a colander or saucepan lid, and some glue and glitter.

Start by drilling holes on the center of each metal bottle cap. You can flatten the caps with a hammer or leave them as is. Decorate the caps either with gold or silver paint or coat them with glue and shake them inside a container filled with glitter. Allow the glue and glitter to dry.

String together the caps on various lengths of fine cord. Be sure to tie the ends so the caps do not slip off. You can pack as many caps as you want in a single cord or tie a knot after each cap. Afterwards, tie the end of the cord with a ring metal to secure it. Your homemade wind chime is now ready to hang.

You may also collect silver-plated forks and spoons from various thrift shops and garage sales. Bend the stems and come up with interesting shapes using a vice or any similar tool. Drill holes on top of the stems and hang various lengths of fishing line from a colander or lid of saucepan with holes drilled on the edges. Use a cord or a fine chain to make a wire loop for hanging.

Seashells can also be used to make interesting wind chimes. Start by collecting large flat shells, sand dollars, and big conch shells. Make holes in each individual shell. Get the biggest shell and insert a fine chain through the hole you created. Tie crystals, sea-worn glass, or even dried seaweed on the chain according to your artistic taste.

If you start making your own wind chimes, you will not only get a beautiful décor for your house, you will gain personal satisfaction from making something artistic with your own hands.

Wet Fly Fishing: Trouble with Roll-Cast?

I use "Scientific Angler: Wet Tip" Fast sinking tip fly line. After casting the line out and allowing the roughly 9 ft sinking tip to submerge, it is impossible for me to false cast from that point. The submerged line will resist being pulled back. I tried a roll cast but the submerged line would resist being casted further. Any tips?

Roll casting and sinking lines, whether they are intermediates or full sinkers is NEVER a good combination, it works best with a floater, because even though the waters tension is needed, too much tension and your putting too much pressure on your rod and you risk snapping the tip, with midge tip type lines, ive never had a problem, the key is to not have too much line in the water if your using intermediates and full sinkers, it will mean more false casts to aerialise fly line, but its better in the long term, when you come to the end of your retrieve speed it up to get it closer to the surface then make your cast, dont try to roll cast with intermediates, also most full sinking lines are DT lines, these fish allot better on tip action rod, if its a WF sinker a medium to fast action will most likely suit you better, but with practice a tip action rod should be able to give you better distances with a DT line. This should be able to help you out allot, dont let the name stop you it is fly fishing
