There is no doubt that the Current River is the most diverse stream in Missouri. It begins as a spring creek style trout river, and slowly transforms into one of the best smallmouth bass streams in the nation. Besides these species, there are also populations of Rock Bass, Walleye, and of course Bluegill.

The first twenty miles of the river make up the classic trout water. The river begins where Montauk Spring rises in the streambed of Pigeon Creek. For three miles below this point, the stream is stocked once a day with rainbow trout from March 1 through October 31. The upper part of this stretch which flows through Montauk State Park is managed for flies only. Artificial lures such as marabou jigs and single hooked rooster tail spinners fished on a spinning rod are perfectly legal, along with traditional fly gear. The rest of the river in the park allows all lures and baits. Montauk Spring Branch also flows through the park. The first quarter mile is catch and release only with flies only .Below there, all baits are allowed until it reaches the Current River, and fish may be kept. This area is also stocked daily.

Below Montauk State Park for nine miles, the river is managed for trophy rainbow and brown trout. The trout population varies from year, but you can count on there being between 250 and 700 trout per mile, which is a respectable number. Most are browns, but there are quite a few rainbows as well, including a number of wild trout.  This is a great area to float, but there is wading access at the lower end of Montauk State Park, Tan Vat, Baptist Camp, Parker Hollow, and Cedar Grove. This is a year-round fishery, with the best fishing in the seven miles between Montauk State Park and the Parker Hollow Access. Between Parker Hollow and Cedar Grove there are certainly trout, but wading can be tough, and the fish numbers are not terribly high. Artificial lures and flies only are allowed, and there is a restrictive length limit in place.

The eight miles between Cedar Grove and Akers Ferry is managed as a put and take trout fishery. It is heavily stocked with rainbow trout between March and September. In the four miles between Cedar Grove and Welch Spring the best trout fishing will be in the spring and fall, as that is the only time trout are stocked. Below Welch Spring until Akers Ferry, the water is significantly cooler, and trout are stocked all summer long. The best fishing is generally near the mouth of Welch Spring, where trout are stocked extensively. Below Akers Ferry, there are pockets of trout all the way to Pulltite Spring seven miles further downstream, but numbers drop significantly the further below Akers Ferry you get.

Between Akers Ferry and Round Spring, the fishing is spotty for both smallmouth bass and trout. There are decent rainbow trout numbers in the upper half, and decent smallmouth bass numbers in the lower half, but the fishing will be marginal. Smallmouth bass fishing picks up in earnest at the mouth of Round Spring. Between this point and Doniphan, Missouri lies some of the finest smallmouth water in the state. Fish in the one to three pound range abound, and larger fish are not uncommon at all. Rock Bass and Bluegill can also be found in great numbers. Around Van Buren, walleye enter the scene. This is one of the best stream walleye fisheries in the nation, and big Ozark strain walleyes abound. The next world record could come from the Current River. Jigging, trolling, and live bait fishing are all popular to catch these big walleye.

Every fisherman in Missouri should try fishing the beautiful Current River. Its crystal clear waters are home to some of the best fishing to be found in the United States. Whether you like smallmouth bass, trout, walleye, or just a big stringer of bluegill or suckers, this is a great place to go.

South Padre Island Fishing is sought after because of its number of options, bountiful list of exotic fish, challenging conditions and a beautiful backdrop. As it stands there are over 500 different species of fish including flounder, red fish, trout, drum, tuna, kingfish, wahoo and countless others. Fishing tends to take on three different forms: Bay Fishing, Deep Sea Fishing, or Canyon Fishing.

Bay Fishing

These fishing is fun because it lets you test your wits against the fish of the Laguna Madre Bay. Always a challenge this fishing is definitely a step compared to most fishing in lakes and ponds. At South Padre, you can get discounted rates for your fishing by using one of the many charter services who operate bay fishing boats. The two most common choices are (1) fishing party boat or (2) private charter trip. The key distinction is in the number of participants on the boat and the level of direct oversight by the captain.

Fishing party boats can have well over 10 people whereas a private charter trip is reduced to your party. Fishing on a party boat is cheaper in comparison with a cost of roughly $20 to $30 per fisherman. Private charter trips tend to begin at $350 for 2 people. Again, the main benefit of the private charter trips is their privacy and individualized attention. Most bay fishing trips are done in 3 to 5 hour intervals and go throughout the day.

Deep Sea Fishing

Deep Sea Fishing is a guaranteed good time for fisherman who have never experienced it before. It offers the opportunity to go after an entirely different set of fish wildlife and use unique casting methods. Common fish caught in this fishing include pompano, mackerel, and red snapper. Most of the deep sea fishing charters offer half day and full day options. The half day options usually run four hours and the whole day options run anywhere from 8 to 10 hours depending on the charter company. The private charter trip costs begin at $350 for 2 people for a half day trip and $500 for a full day trip. Party boat costs for deep sea fishing range from $50 to $80 a person depending on the number of hours. Spectators who are not fishing can generally get a reduced price as well. .

Canyon Fishing

This is really big game deep sea fishing. Some charter groups may call this different things; however, you will be essentially fishing over 40 miles off the Texas coast. Fishing in this region allows you to fish large fish, such as tuna, wahoo, and kingfish. The cost of these trips begins at roughly $1,000 for 2 people. Most of the Deep Sea Fishing trips begin early in the morning and some charters have afternoon half day trips.

Additional Fishing Tips & Advice

Ask if you will need a state fishing license. The best way to figure this out is to talk to either the captain of the charter or the state representative. If a state license is needed, you can call 1-800-895-4248 to purchase one.

Other tips to keep in mind when choosing a charter group include the following:

The Captain’s years of experience: All things being equal, the more time you spend at something the more knowledge you pick. Opt for a captain that has paid his dues and you will likely be rewarded with a treasure trove of knowledge, stories and tips.

Seaworthiness of the ship: This will most likely not be a concern; however, it pays to select newer boats over older ones as they are less likely to break down while in the water.

Check to see if you can grill your catch on the pier: Some charter groups let you cook your fish right off the pier. This is great for culminating a successful round of fishing.

See what equipment you will need: Almost all the fishing charters will give you the fishing equipment free. However, you will want to know what other items you can bring, such as drinks, food or your own fishing equipment. These will vary from charter as the captain truly is the captain of their boat.

South Padre Island Fishing is a can’t miss experience that can be enjoyed by the whole family. If you haven’t had a chance to go deep sea fishing, you will want to be sure to add this to your list of activities.

In the last few years most of the states along the Eastern United States Coast have implemented saltwater license requirements for both residents and non-residents. Also most states have implemented size, slot, and bag limits on most saltwater species of fish.

Because Florida is such a popular state for saltwater fishing, and because I live in North Carolina I will talk about these two states but if you are saltwater fishing or planning to fish any state on the eastern United States coast you might want to look at the states requirements.

On January 1, 2007 North Carolina enacted regulations that require both residents and non-residents to purchase and possess a saltwater fishing license. The fees for the North Carolina saltwater licenses can be found easily on line or by visiting a local bait shop when you are at the coast. Also, North Carolina updates the size limits, slot limits and numbers of saltwater fish species that you can keep annually and these vary every year because of increasing and decreasing populations of certain species. These regulations can also be acquired at a local coastal bait shop. The fines for violating some of these regulations in North Carolina can result in fines up to $10,000. You would be well advised to have your license and understand the species of fish you keep in N.C. You can find all of these regulations on line by going to the N.C. Fish and Wildlife website.

In Florida the regulations are very similar. You can purchase a non-resident saltwater fishing license for $17.00 for three days and for $30.00 for a seven day license. Most states license fees are much less for non-resident licenses and considerably less for resident licenses. You can also fine all the information you will need by going to the Florida Fish and Wildlife website.

To understand how important it is to be familiar with species, limits, and sizes, here are a few examples of the N.C. regulations:’

Red Drum, Channel Bass, Puppy Drum: length, 18″ to 27″, bag limit one per person.

Spotted trout: length, 12″, bag limit 10 per day per person.

These are just a few of the limits that N.C. has put on saltwater species of fish that you can keep each day. All states have similar regulations.

It is important that these regulations have been put in place to insure that our children and grand children will be able to experience the incredible experience of saltwater fishing. If you target different species of fish you can still eat great seafood and put plenty in your freezer while insuring that you will be able to do that for many more generations to come.

California may be one of the best places to fish in the entire country, because you can experience everything from trophy-sized ocean fishing in the might Pacific to backwoods freshwater fishing in some of the most pristine mountain lakes in the country. Add in all the brooks, streams, and rivers that run through the state and California fishing has something for everyone.

What do you need to fish in Californiaall o Fishing gear for salt or freshwater fishing. o A boat or access to a boat in many areas. o A California fishing license.

Where can you get a California fishing license? o You can get a license at the California Department of Fish and Game (CDFG). o From a licensed agent. o At many recreation areas. Many recreation areas offer short-term (one-, two-, and multi-day) permits right at the sites, so you can pick up a California fishing license when you visit a lake or river for a day or two. If you have long term fishing plans, you can go directly to the CDFG in Sacramento, or one of their branch offices, or you can get a license by mail. If you’re planning on fishing in more than one area of the state, you may need different licenses for different types of fishing.

If you’re planning on fishing these aquatic animals, you’ll need special stamps on your California fishing license, and you may have to file a special “report card” if you take any of these on your fishing trip. o Abalone o Steelhead o Spiny Lobster o Sturgeon o Salmon from the Klamath-Trinity area

You’ll also need special enhancement stamps for your license if you’re fishing in these areas: o Colorado River. o ocean waters south of Point Arguello (Santa Barbara County). o San Francisco Bay and Delta. o Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta. o Several other rivers in Northern and Central California, below dams on those rivers, check with CDFG for details. o You’ll also need stamps to add to your California fishing license if you have an extra rod.

While it seems like there are a lot of regulations for fishing in California, these help regulate how many fish are taken each year, and that keeps fishing plentiful throughout the state. Fees for stamps and licenses vary, so it’s best to check with CDFG if you have any questions about your specific fishing needs and their requirements.

If you’re an avid fisherman, you should think about annual fishing licenses in California. It’s much cheaper to buy an annual license than numerous multi-day permits, and you won’t have to keep paying for enhancement stamps, either. California even offers lifetime fishing licenses, which are even more reasonable if you plan on fishing for several years in the Golden State.

The bottom line is, if you want to take anything from costal or inland waters in California, from mussels to abalone, salmon, or even turtles, you need to have a California fishing license to do it. Don’t tempt fate; get a license before you do any type of fishing in California waters.

If you’re a fisherman who’s new to Florida you are probably asking yourself the questions: do I need a fishing license and if so what sort of license do I need to getall According to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission (the state agency that issues licenses) you don’t need a freshwater fishing license if:

- You are a Florida resident who is fishing with live or natural bait and using a pole that doesn’t have a line retrieval mechanism (reel). – You are fishing in you’re the county where you live with the bait and tackle described above. – You’re fishing at a private fish pond. – You possess a valid Georgia license and you are fishing in the St. Mary’s River or Lake Seminole – You’re fishing during the first weekend in April which is free fishing weekend. – You are under 16 years old. – You are over 65 old.

You won’t need a Saltwater license in Florida waters if you meet the following criteria:

- You are fishing from a charter or party boat that has a valid license. – You’re fishing from a vessel owned by a person with a valid license. – You are under 16 years old. – You are over 65 years old.

A great thing about Florida law is that disabled people, children under 16 years old and resident senior citizens over 65 don’t need licenses in the state. Senior citizens who live in Florida will need to have proof of residency or a Resident Senior Hunting and Fishing Certificate to fish without a license. Disabled people will need a certificate from the state to fish without a license.

Under these criteria most people will have to get Saltwater and Freshwater fishing licenses if they want to fish in Florida. Some individuals may have to buy permits if they are fishing for certain kinds of fish.

A Florida resident who fishes from a boat will pay $17 a year for an annual saltwater fishing license or $79 for a five-year license. A resident can also buy a $32.50 a year combination saltwater and freshwater license. Combination fishing and hunting licenses are also available.

A non resident can buy an annual Saltwater fishing license for $47 a year. Short term visitors to Florida might save some money by buying short term licenses a three day Saltwater fishing license costs $17 and a seven day saltwater fishing license costs $30.

People going after Snook will have to get a $2 annual Snook permit while those looking for lobster will have to buy $2 annual lobster permit. Persons looking to real in a tarpon will have to get a Tarpon Tag for $51.50.

$200 a week….Really?!?!??

Tryin to do the math here…Honestly, has anyone in congress, or the likes thereof done the math lately for what is considered low income???

Yes, I’m a single mom. Yes, I have a good job in which I make more than $40k (not by much) a year. Yes, I have student loans and a car loan. I have to pay car insurance, not to mention gas for the damned thing. Let’s not get too far into the utilities, rent, student loans and whatnot. I have no help from Mr. sperm donor…and I prefer it that way. How the HELL am I supposed to afford $185/wk for full time daycare (that’s the cheapest I’ve found round these parts) after all the bills are paid??? I make too much to qualify for government programs, too little to purchase a house and get a mortgage that could actually Help me now. I have very few people to turn to for help, and my current daycare help (my mother…who’s graciously been working for me for Free!) is soon to be out of commission.

Short of becoming a gold digger…..What the Hell am I supposed to do?!?!?? It’s just me…me and my daughter (who’s still little enough not to know what’s going on, Thank the good ones up above for that!). I’m frustrated. I need help, but because I went out and got myself a degree…and consequently a job that utilizes that degree, which makes more than (apparently) the average joe (yes, I’m counting Every blessing right now that I actully Have a job), I now have disqualified myself from any kind of temporary help I need.

Aaaccccckkkkkk!!!! Shoot me now!
