I am looking for a good place to take my father tarpon fishing for his 70th birthday. He has been talking about going for a long time now. Any suggestion. I am looking for a nice place but not too outrageously priced but I want him taken care of so he can enjoy it and catch alot of fish… Help
The best Tarpon and Snook fishing in Costa Rica is found on the Caribbean side of the country. Try the Rio Colorado Lodge
( http://www.riocoloradolodge.com/home.html ) as they seem to be the leading Tarpon fishing outfitter in Costa Rica.
For Sailfish, Marlin, Mahi-Mahi, Tuna, Wahoo, Roosterfish, and Grouper and Snapper, the Pacific coast is the place to be, most particularly out of Los Suenos and Jaco Beach, which is the fishing capital of Costa Rica. Hooked On Costa Rica(http://www.hookedoncostarica.com) seems to offer the best options for fishing the Pacific Coast.
What a great gift to give to the person that made it possible for you to be able to fish your whole life..Your Father
Where would I find Trout for a fish tank?
25.May, 2009
My brother is really into to fishing and all that. For Christmas he'd really like a fish tank with different kinds of trout. Where could I find trout to stock the fish tank?
Since trout are game fish, you may not find them for sale, depending on where you live. Many states have regulations prohibiting the sale of native species. Also, most states have regulations regarding the "keeping" of game fish, and depending on the state, you may need a special permit (some only require a fishing license).
Trout also need a cold-water environment, and the tank would need to have a chiller (and this would be a major expense, considering the size of tank adult trout would need. The chiller alone would probably cost $500-$600 or more for the size that would be needed: http://www.thatpetplace.com/pet/cat/info/23005/category.web
Not that I'm trying to discourage you, but these are things you'll need to consider. You can contact your local fish/game department and see what the regulations are – they may also be able to point you to a local hatchery where you can get fingerlings.
Another possible source of info for you is the North American Native Fish Association (NANFA): http://www.nanfa.org/
Far easier than trout, you might see if your brother would be interested in warmwater fish such as panfish, bass, or native catfish which don't need cold water and can live at normal room temperatures. These would still fall under state regulations, but I've kept these, as well as darter, minnows, suckers, a small carp, banded killifish, and others (with a state permit) as part of a native fish display and they can live at room temperature.
How do I make the angling furniture code in the sims 2 work when I have typed in the allow45degree.. code?
25.May, 2009
I typed in the code (boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation) press enter and I can't do anything with the furniture except twist it like usual.
Use the keys between M and the question mark
They look like this < > That'll spin your furniture around.
edit: the cheat is either true or false, you forgot to say true. It will NOT turn on til you tell it what to do.
boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true
How do I find people to buy fishing rods and reels?
25.May, 2009
I am looking to sell fishing rods and reels. There is almost every name brand that's made. Plus rods of varies types.
The guy across the road from me sells them from his house. He must put an ad in the local paper, or maybe fishing club newsletters. You'll get a better price than you will on ebay.
In what state is it legal for a fisherman to shoot a lobster poacher that is pulling up the fishmans pod?
25.May, 2009
Is it true , that a fisherman can shoot somebody that he catches pulling up his lobster pod. This is stealing, and was told a fishman could shoot somebody that steals from him.
no, you can’t. it would fall under the use of excessive force. you can’t just pull a gun on someone unless they are threatening you with overt physical harm at that moment. all the states have updated laws in this regard and that whole frontier vengeance thing is illegal now.

What is the healthiest way to tackle a buffet?
25.May, 2009
(Tackle is a figure of speech).
I live in Vegas and there is a lot of buffets. What is the healthiest way to eat at a buffet and still enjoy almost everything that it has to offer?
I usually prepare a salad first and then sit down to eat it. Later I get up to get something else.
start with salads – fish that is not fried – vegetables ( not in butter sauce)
then you will be full before you get the more fattening things, like fried meats, desserts
I have just bought a house with a pond in the back garden and it still has fish in it, I'm now wondering if they are goldfish or Koi carp but don't know how to tell the difference!
Koi are bigger and have catfish like antennea on their mouths.
How can I find names for my charters in my scripts?
25.May, 2009
I write scripts, I am really good at it but I am really bad at coming up with names for my charters
Baby name websites, just scroll through and pick up ones you like! That's what I do.
I want to use lures on my spinning reel to catch some hornyhead chub. What can I use and how.
Use a tiny 1/32 oz jig or try a trout fly. Just use a small pear shaped bobber about 2 or 3 feet above the lure and give it a cast. let the jig sink to a count of 3 and give it a couple of small tugs imitating a bug. Do the same with the trout fly and I am sure you ill catch em. Good luck.
