Like many older breeds, the origin of the Maine Coon is unclear and steeped in rumor. Some believe Maine Coons, also known as American Longhair, American Shag, American Forest Cat, American Snughead and Maine Trick Cat, are a cross between semi-domestic wild cats and raccoons (doubtful if not impossible). Others believe that Marie Antoinette sent her beloved Angoras to America for safety. They escaped and inbred with wild cats. Still others believe a cat was brought to Maine by Captain Coon and the cat escaped to live in the wilds of Maine. Whatever the origins, it is generally agreed that the Maine Coon is the one of the oldest Native American breed of cat and they were an established domestic and...

How do you rig a live worm for fishing? Is it as simple as just tying on a single hook and then threading a worms onto that hook? Or hooking a worm over and over again onto a hook? Of course, the answer to these questions is yes. That's how anyone who fishes with live worms rigs them, mostly because they don't know of a better way. The problem becomes, are the worm rigging techniques mentioned above the most effective way to do it? The answer to that question is a resounding No. Threading a live worm onto a single hook or hooking that worm over and over again are not the most effective way to rig said worm.

It was hard to tell just how big the fish was or if it was a Rainbow or big Dolly Varden. Hooking a big upper Kenai river trout in fast water doesn't leave much time for species identification. "Hang on to it-we'll chase it and go land it in some calmer water." said Allen, who was behind the sticks of our 20 foot Willie drift boat. We had just entered the Canyon section of the upper Kenai river and while my three other compadres fishing with me on the boat had already hooked some BIG Rainbows and Dollies, I had yet to catch what I will call a "quality" upper Kenai fish.

The obvious answer is fish and preferably fish that are biting your bait. While fish that are biting is the key element in a good fishing trip there are several other elements that help to enhance your fishing experience. One of the elements is a wide comfortable space, a location where you can securely place all the items you will need and reach them comfortably. This is particularly important if you are fishing from a high rock ledge. You do not want to reach for something and have it slip into the water, or worse you slip into the water. When fishing from rocks in the ocean it is also important to pay attention to the high tide mark on the rock. You need to ensure that your location is above the...

Once a fish is hooked, the spin-fisherman is faced with almost the same circumstances as the fly angler, but he does have the advantage that he can quickly retrieve line and consequently fish, especially large fish, can be more adequately fought. Always remember, before making your first cast of the day, to adjust the drag. Drag is nothing more than an arrangement whereby a hooked fish can take line without breaking it, while the excited angler continues to reel. Most spinning reel drag systems are composed of a friction nut that bears against the reel spool. The tighter it is turned down, the heavier the drag and vice-versa. Set your drag by stripping line from the reel spool. If in doubt, it is...

My all time favorite rattling crankbait is the Rattletrap. One key I found when buying a Rattletrap is to try them out before you buy it (if the store allows it). This is what I mean: Remove the Rattletrap from the box, hold it close to your ear being careful not to stick yourself, and shake it quickly 3 to 4 times. You will definitely here the rattling sound. I have found that the "traps" that have a higher pitched rattle tend to produce more strikes (just my personal experience). So check out a few before you buy. My personal favorite colors are silver with black back and silver with blue back. I've found that the 1/2 ounce to be the best all around size. The rattletraps do wear out over time. The...

Beginner Fly Fishing - Who Needs Nail Knots...

When you're a beginner fly fishing for the first time, one of the most frustrating things can be figuring out how to attach a leader to your fly line. The most widely accepted method is to use a well tied nail knot, but if you're not an experienced knot tier, tying a nail knot isn't the easiest thing in the world. Worse yet, if you don't practice the knot regularly, you may not remember how to do it if you need to make on stream repairs. You can attempt to tie easier knots, but these often leave too big of a bulge where the leader and fly line come together which then gets caught in your guides when you're reeling in a trout, tangles during your back cast, or snags on things in the water. Is there a...
