t the 2018 Our Ocean Conference in October, Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park in The Bahamas was awarded the Platinum Global Ocean Refuge Award by the Marine Conservation Institute. This prestigious award recognizes marine protected areas (MPAs) for meeting the highest standards for biodiversity protection and best practices for management and enforcement. With the award, Exuma Cays joins a prestigious group of 10 MPAs that comprise the Global Ocean Refuge System. “The Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park highlights the ability of a well-managed marine park to not only preserve the beauty of an area, but also to provide critical protection for marine life to maintain the delicate balance, and health of coral reefs and other marine ecosystems,” said Eric Carey, executive director, The Bahamas National Trust. “It also shows how no marine protected area is an island, and how outside factors, whether they be increasing sea temperatures or unsustainable fishing, can affect the ability of the park to safeguard the species and habitats within it. The Bahamas is currently addressing these issues by expanding its system of MPAs to build a network of MPAs that will replenish each other and surrounding areas, sustainably protect marine ecosystems and key species within them, while allowing human access and uses that are compatible with the goals of sustainability… The Bahamas National Trust is honored to be recognized by the Global Ocean Refuge System. There is no greater honor than to be recognized by the scientific community and peer management agencies.” Visit globaloceanrefuge.org to learn more about Global Ocean Refuges

he Atlantic Salmon Federation (ASF) is calling on Canada to enact new management measures to reduce the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence striped bass population. “It’s important that Canadian government leaders from across the country understand what’s happening in the Gulf of St. Lawrence and especially on the Miramichi River,” said ASF president Bill Taylor. “DFO has taken incremental steps, but more is needed to restore balance for all species.” Striped bass are native to the southern Gulf of St. Lawrence and were once considered threatened. All fisheries were closed by 2000, and a recovery target of 31,200 spawning adults was established. That goal has now been exceeded for eight consecutive years. Recent estimates show between 500,000 and 2-million striped bass spawn annually in the Miramichi. “We have clearly shown this concentration of striped bass is having severe negative effects on wild Atlantic salmon,” said Taylor. Since 2003, ASF and partners like the Miramichi Salmon Association have been tracking juvenile Atlantic salmon, known as smolt, in three Gulf of St. Lawrence rivers. Initially, 65-75 percent of tagged smolt survived migration through the estuary of each river. Survival rates on the Restigouche and Cascapedia rivers have remained stable, but a downward trend began in 2011 on the Miramichi, coinciding with the sharp rise in striped bass. Less than 10 percent of smolt tagged in the Northwest Miramichi River survived to reach the Gulf of St. Lawrence in 2017. The lower Northwest Miramichi is where the entire southern Gulf of St. Lawrence striped bass population gathers to spawn each spring. At the same time, smolt are migrating to the ocean.

It's been an unbelievable year and we would like to say a big "Thank You" to all our customers and dealers for helping make it happen! Let's make 2019 even better!

ith Thanksgiving behind us we find ourselves smack in the middle of the holiday season. Before we know it, 2019 will be here. This time of year is great for looking back on the previous 12 months. For us, specifically the last 6 months as we have started to publish this great magazine. We have made new friends, had new experiences, and overall, I believe we have made the magazine better. We have several projects in the works that will make Coastal Angler even more exciting for 2019 and we can’t wait to share them with you. One of the new experiences I was fortunate enough to have was to go on my first gator hunt. We were able to boat a 10’8” and a 9’! This was such a rush, and was done with such a great group of people, it instantly jumped to a hall of fame moment for myself. I can’t thank Daniel, Eric, Jason, and especially Lucas for making that day so wonderful. You can find our gator hunt video on our Facebook video section or on YouTube on channel “Coastal AnglerTV” Happy Holidays From the Chibbaros Tight lines, The Chibbaro Family

ecember can be one of those months that can either be extremely productive or extremely frustrating. Most anglers would agree that during the holiday season, the outcome of your outing is very much dependent on the weather. Assuming we have a relatively mild month, the same fishing tactics can be used that were used in November. Redfish will remain active even through the colder weeks we may experience. With cooler water temperatures, Redfish school up in large numbers. When you do find these schools, I would start off throwing a small soft artificial such as a D.O.A or Z-man with an 1/8oz. jig head. If the artificials just aren’t proving to be productive, chunk out a mullet or ladyfish, or free-line a live shrimp and that should do the trick. With cooler waters, the trout will definitely be in full effect. Live

shrimp on a popping cork or any number of soft plastics with some form of chartreuse in the color scheme will be your top producers. The flounder bite is also most certainly picking up. Drag a live mud minnow or a red bone colored Z-man paddle tail along the sandy flats for your best chances at getting a nice doormat flounder. The snook bite will be slow through the cooler months and with the snook season ending on December 15th, time will be short to get your last couple slots for the winter. For the bottom fisherman out there, the black drum will continue to bite through the winter months with sheepshead staying active as well. All in all, if you can withstand the cooler temperatures, the fish will most certainly still remain active. So bundle up, if need be, get on the water and take full advantage of the sport fishing capital of the world that we call home. Dave Farlow is the co-owner of Salty Dawg Outfitters @ High Bridge

FISHING REPORT & FORECAST ED FARLOW

Ponce Inlet - Surf Intracoastal - Backwaters

H

O! HO! HO! MERRY CHRISTMAS!! Hard to believe we are going into the last month of 2018 and the weather has been beautiful! Looking back on last year, the winter was quite brutal in our area; however, the fishing through the first quarter of 2018 was not bad at all. We had a good run of black drum, the flounder fishing was steady, and even the redfish, snook and mangrove snapper kept us hopeful when on the water. And yes, the spring winds kept many anglers from enjoying our wonderful sport, but for those that did wet a line, the rewards were plentiful. Black drum, sheepshead, mangos and redfish were found in very good numbers. Those venturing offshore on the days suitable found kingfish, mahi, and bonita on the troll, while the bottom fishermen ran into their share of mangrove, lane and mutton snapper, triggerfish and others willing to tug a line. The doldrums of summer were kind to the offshore anglers in search of mahi, sailfish, bonita, cobia and others week after week. Those fishing the wrecks and reefs came back to Black drum will start to show up the dock with plentiful in greater numbers and look for numbers of snapper (lane, mangrove, red eye, more sheepshead, flounder, BIG and mutton) as well as bluefish, redfish and snook to keep lots of triggerfish, spade anglers busy into the new year. fish and sharks. Inshore, the whiting and pompano kept the surf anglers happy, while redfish, trout, snook, flounder and sheepshead were waiting for the river and backwater anglers to show up. This fall has been magnificent for those anglers that have been putting in the time and energy. The inlet has been stacked up with bull redfish, snook, tarpon, trout and others using live bait and a selection of artificials. Surf fishing has been very good for whiting, small blues and a scattered catch of pompano while backwater fishermen have found plenty of redfish, trout, mangos and others. December will be a great month of fishing, NO DOUBT!! The weather has been cooperating, and will continue to do so. Black drum will start to show up in greater numbers and look for more sheepshead, flounder, BIG bluefish, redfish and snook to keep anglers busy into the new year. At Salty Dawg Outfitters in Ponce Inlet, we have the best of what works in tackle, lures, rigs and live and frozen bait to make your day on the water a successful one no matter where you fish. Inshore, offshore, river and backwaters, you can find the “right stuff ” at Salty Dawg. And for those looking for the perfect gift for the angler in their life, we can set you up there also. We just got in a great selection of Blackfin rods in several series for the men and lady angler. Add to that the awesome Blackfin cast nets in 4’ - 6’ - 8’ and 10’ sizes and the Blackfin gaffs in assorted lengths and hook sizes and you will be the best Santa ever for your favorite fisherman or fisherwoman. Until next time, tight lines and light winds! And Merry Christmas to all!!!

hef Henry Salgado and wife Michele are back in action in the quaint little town of New Smyrna Beach. The couple are former owners of the highly successful and awarded Spanish River Grill, where Chef Henry was nominated for the highly sought James Beard award for “Best Chef of the South” twice. Their new restaurant is located at 105 Magnolia Street in the heart of the historic downtown Canal Street district of New Smyrna Beach, which is going through a renaissance growth period right now. Ricky’s Canteen specializes in street food and poke bowls, while delivering the exceptional service we all know and appreciate. From the street, you can’t miss artist Bryce Hammond’s “Ricky Monkey” painted on the top of the building and windows of the covered patio with string lights hanging along the edge of the veranda. Modern wooden bench tables and seats line the porch until you reach the front entrance where you are visually met with a spacious and feng shui inspired dining room with an open view towards the kitchen in the back. The right side of the restaurant features an L-shaped dark wooden bar with a large selection of craft beers, wine, and most notably, a selection of different types of sake. Wooden fixtures showcase your thirst selections while flat screen televisions give you the option to watch your favorite sports team. The left side is a spacious main dining room with sky blue modern chairs and more portraits from artist Bryce Hammond. String lights set a feeling of laid back ambiance hanging throughout the restaurant. Excited to try the newly raved about restaurant, we took a seat at a bar table by the window, catching views of downtown New Smyrna Beach life. With a quick glance at the menu, you will see enticing starters and favorites such as the Pulpo Gallego and Shishito peppers. 40 Miles Out,” packed full with Ahi Beyond the classics, Ricky’s Canteen offers Tuna, edamame, cucumber, carrot, street corn, chicken satay, avocado, scallion, cilantro, and empanadas, brussel sprouts house poke sauce.

mouthwatering. Next, we partook in the Shishito peppers from Tomazin Farms, a local farm off of SR 44 in Samsula, ran by Paul Tomazin, known as the “Barefoot Farmer.” Shishito peppers are known as a “roulette” pepper as about 1 out of 10 is very spicy. Chef Henry blisters these green beauties and then drizzles them with honey, sprinkles with sea salt, and serves with a side of aioli for dipping. They are a delightful snack to pair with a local ale such as Daytona Beach Brewing Company’s Beach Town Pale Ale. Next, we moved on to a Poke Bowl and chose the, “40 Miles Out,” packed full with Ahi Tuna, edamame, cucumber, carrot, avocado, scallion, cilantro, and house poke sauce. This was a healthy and protein packed delight with heaping amounts of fresh glowing tuna. Ricky’s Canteen offers many different varieties of these bowls including a vegetarian option called, “The Veg Head.” Ricky’s Canteen offers a diversity of sandwiches, but the “Bikini” stuck out for us to try. Our inner child came out seeing a Spanish hot ham and cheese sandwich dressed with Sriracha mayo and truffle honey served piping hot as the cheese pulled away steaming as you took a bite and smiled on the outside and inside. When life leads to dessert, don’t ever miss a chance to try any of Michele Salgado’s pastry creations. We tried two, as both were epically glutinous and satisfying for the finishing touch of an amazing meal. First to devour was a deconstructed ice cream sandwich sundae- a broken ice cream sandwich with whipped cream, caramel, caramel popcorn, and chocolate pretzels.

H

ello winter breeze! Fishing in the winter months is my favorite time of the year to fish Mosquito Lagoon. The water levels are finally dropping and the water clarity has improved tremendously and will continue with the cooler weather coming in. As cold fronts start to become more frequent, redfish, big trout and black drum will start to form into bigger schools. With the right timing, you can have a very successful day in the lagoon pulling plenty of fish to the boat!

I never hit the water without being fully prepared with live and artificial baits. Soft plastic jerk baits and spoons are great producers for lure action. The trout bite is really picking up! The cooler water has the big girls coming through, laying up in the sand spots for most of the days. They are gearing up for the cooler water and bait is plentiful. The trout are suckers for free-lined mullet and pig fish. In between fronts, big trout can be very active as long as the water stays cooler. Make sure to be prepared for great action! The water levels are dropping and the clarity in Mosquito Winter Bait Lagoon has improved which is great for sight casting. This time of As the water temps drop, you will start to find snook stacked up. As you all know, I fish from kayak and skiff and enjoy paddling the year, between the fall weather and the cool fronts coming in, the wind picks up which makes it harder to use those artificials. down the canals and up to dock lights. I have been finding snook You will find it easier to hook up on live bait!

I find working an artificial or free-lining a jumbo shrimp angling and find it much more fulfilling landing my most effective. One of my favorite lures for snook is a DOA paddlefish on artificial baits. Mullet, jumbo shrimp, soft tail jig but as you all know, snook can’t resist those top waters. A plastics, top waters and twitch baits are best Badonkadonk or Bomber is my go-to, watching your snook smash in these cooler months and you will have no one of these will certainly leave you feeling fulfilled! trouble hooking up in the Lagoon. So go out there, enjoy the cool breeze and give it all you Cool Water Bite got. Happy Holidays and Merry Fishmas! The redfish bite has been really good! You will start to see the bigger girls coming in the Lagoon and finding them laid up in the sand spots. I haven’t really seen any schools of redfish.

Tech Tips Diamond Motors

Truck Maintenance from NSB Chevy

ast month we started simple with how important it is to flush your motor with clean water after every use. This month we talk tune ups. Typically, most boat owners tune up their motors once a year, just before the busiest part of their boating season. When you live in a place like Central FL, we have a year-round boating season, so we recommend 2 tune ups a year. A proper tune up will not just be changing spark plugs and fuel filter. When done by a reputable technician this is a total check up on your motor.

ast month we talked about the importance of maintenance on your rear end differential, this month we are going to stay on the underside and talk about another key system of your truck’s that almost always gets overlooked. Your suspension. Most manufacturers recommend having your shocks tested at 50,000 miles. However, just like we mentioned about the rear differential, if you regularly tow a boat or trailer, you are going to want to inspect them annually. If you notice any noises when you go over bumps, if the front of the truck dives downward on hard braking, or if you have multiple bounces when going over bumps, there is a good chance your shocks need to be addressed. To have your suspension tested, just give us a call here at New Smyrna Chevy to schedule an appointment. Thanks for reading!

L

From lower unit fluids to spark plugs and all things in between. Although many boaters can do this themselves, we recommend bringing your boat in to Diamond Motors where a trained technician can get your motor dialed in and running great!

Offshore Forecast by Capt. Shane Ryan

D

ecember can be one of the most fun times of year to fish offshore here in our area. On the bottom you will find snappers, amberjack, grouper, and possible even some cobia! On the top you will find 2 big species roaming our areas, wahoo and kingfish. For Wahoo, as most of you know, high speed trolling is the way to go. We love pulling wahoo whackers, and Williamson Wahoo Catchers for skirted lures. As for hardbody lures we really like to use, Xrap or Yozuri 3D Magnum Deep Divers. If you want to troll a hardbody lure above 10mph, then the YoZuri Bonita is the call. The YoZuri can be trolled up to 17mph!!!! For Kingfish some of the same lures and tactics can be used, but obviously at a slower speed. Some of our favorite trolling lures are the Williamson Live Ribbonfish and drone spoon with a planer. One more quick thing we wanted to mention when talking about

winter fishing, and that is SAFETY. Remember when the water gets colder, a man overboard situation is far more likely to end up being fatal. We always recommend wearing a lifejacket , and make sure everyone on board knows their job in the even that something goes wrong. A unified crew, flat out saves lives! Capt.

ecember brings cooler weather and lower tides than other months, especially around the full moon. Traditionally, the best moon phase for fishing is between the new moon and the full moon, which will be the 7th through 22nd. The fish that will be active are reds, trout, snook, flounder and usually black drum, however in 2017 and 2018, black drum were scarce. I like fishing 2 hours before and 2 hours after high tide working the banks in the basin and river. During the low water, look for drop-offs and holes. I prefer using hard plastics that are slow sinkers and jigs with soft paddle tails like Z-man 3 to 4 inches. During cold days, downsize your bait and work slower than you would during warm months. For live bait, hook shrimp on a popping cork and flip the shore line.

ecember is a great time to be fishing the St. John’s River. Cooling water temperatures invigorate bass and specks and they begin their winter feeding patterns that lead up to the spawn. This year the Speckled Perch started early for us, but never really gained speed. I know with some more consistent cooler temperatures, they will take off. Lake Woodruff, in Deland, is a premier speck lake. It has been rated in the top five in the state for specks. It is a typical Florida lake with a pie pan shaped mud bottom. At 2,220 acres, Woodruff is fairly shallow and rimed with vegetation. Additionally, Deleon Springs dumps millions of gallons of fresh spring water into the north east corner of the lake daily. Not only does this provide a water exchange, but it creates water flow. There is always a little movement in Woodruff. When you add it up, Lake Woodruff has the perfect environment for specks. They move out of the main channels of the St. John’s River into the lake in great numbers to feed, See you on the river, stage, and spawn. Captain Barry This month, specks will respond to Captain Barry Englehardt fishwithcaptainbarry.com a variety of baits and methods. Drifting or trolling open water with live minnows is the standard. Use a #1 or #2 Aberdeen hook with a #4 or #5 split-weight four inches above it. Drift with the wind or slow troll against it. Trolling artificial jigs HIGH LOW is the most popular DATE method.

or much of the U.S. it is time to don winter coats, sweep the chimney and winterize the boat. As the temperature plummets, it’s easy for the mind to wander toward thoughts of warm sun and a beach escape. For the fishing crews in Nosara, Costa Rica, the forecast for the next 10 months is perfect sunshine and clear fishing weather. Best of all, this is the time of year when big dorado provide plenty for the Christmas dinner table. Here in Costa Rica, our fishing pattern resets each year. Ever since the rainy season ended in early November, we have seen large

CANGL_FIL1-FIL4.indd 4

schools of dorado stacked up like cordwood. Also, there are swarms of sailfish and the occasional marlin stalking these mahi-mahi meals. We expect this feeding pattern to continue until late-March when the dorado will be replaced by schools of yellowfin tuna moving in from the north. Gangs of spinning dolphins will show us the way to these tasty ahis, and once they show up the tuna bite will strengthen until our end-of-season in early September. Our offshore marlin, yellowfin and dorado all follow schools of bait that move from north to south along the Pacific coast. Conversely, our inshore fishery doesn’t depend on pelagic bait migration patterns. Instead our secluded port of Garza Bay is fed by local mountain rivers. When the cool, nutrient-rich river water collides with the warm, fast-moving saltwater of the Pacific, conditions are perfect for localized swarms of baitfish to form. This “homegrown” bait supports a ravenous population of big roosterfish, broomtail groupers and massive cubera snapper. It’s not unusual for these monsters to weigh upwards of 60 pounds yet still ascend the water column to strike on the surface. Roosterfish are in an especially catchable mood after a cool evening’s rain floods the estuary with fresh baits. Inshore or offshore, all are ripe for the catching, and captains of FishingNosara have posted excellent catches ever since the season started. Right off the bat, angler Brian Stafford, of Jacksonville, Fla. and his fellow firefighters nabbed a big batch of dorado on the 32-foot Wanderer. Catching these big beasts on the first day of the season is a great sign of what we imagine will be a “fishtastic” 2019 season. It’s always a great time be thankful for friends, family and the blessings in life, but with Christmas Day right around the corner, it is the right time to give the gift of fishing. If you have a youngster in the family, get them a tackle box and a starter reel. If you are already an avid angler, remember that Black Friday/Cyber Monday deals are great for expanding your arsenal. And, if you are ready to challenge yourself to catch the baddest fish on the planet, come on down to Nosara and pay us a visit.

JANUARY 10-12, 2019 ORLANDO, FLORIDA By CAM Staff

urf Expo’s Bluewater category launched last year as an examination of the crossover occurring between fishing brands and the larger market of coastal life. Since then, the show has become a must-attend event for fishing and boating retailers savvy enough to stay ahead of the trends water-loving consumers crave. The world’s largest and longest-running board and watersports show has packed the floor of its Bluewater—offshore, inshore and freshwater fishing—category headed into the Jan. 10-12 show at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando. Popular brands traditionally associated with the waterman and outdoor sporting lifestyle will show off their latest and greatest, giving retailers a hands-on first-look at the products that will drive the industry in 2019. Included in the Bluewater category are top brands like Bluewater sponsor Hell’s Bay Boatworks, Yeti, Otterbox, Fish Hippie, AFTCO, Guy Harvey, Marsh Wear, 5Fin, Salt Life, Bimini Bay, Hooked Soul, Heybo, XTRATUF, Dry Case, Bluewater Gear, Wave Life, Sunday Afternoons and more. Many of fishing’s big hitters will be there along with a huge contingent of brands that appeal to the on-the-water lifestyle. With the crossover evident in today’s marketplace, retailers and outfitters who target only their small niche are missing out on a powerful revenue source. Why sell to just the hardcore boater and angler when you could be unloading cool merchandise on the angler as well as his entire family? “The Bluewater section offers the opportunity for buyers to see the latest in trends for fishing and boating apparel and accessories at a time when retailers can leave their store,” said Kenneth Andres, with Surf Expo. “With our confluence from southern California, the Pacific Northwest, the Northeast, the Southeast, the Caribbean, Central and South America, this is a trend-setting show.” The economy is churning and consumer spending and confidence levels are higher than they have been for almost 20 years. Surf Expo is a timely opportunity for retailers to preview product for what promises to be a very busy spring season for fishing, boating and watersports retailers. “January is the best time to preview and order new product lines before the season starts,” said Andres. “Retailers can get out of their shops to talk with exhibitors and see and touch the product before they order, plus take advantage of early incentive discounts.” And for the angling marketplace, where there may be a down season but there is no off-season, Surf Expo will feature an array of exhibitors offering at-once product to fill the racks. This is an opportunity to stock the hottest new gear before the competition has even seen it. The show features more than 2,500 booths of apparel and hardgoods and a full line-up of special events, including fashion shows, awards ceremonies, education and demos. Average buyer and exhibitor turnout exceeds 28,600 attendees per show. And it’s a trade-only show, which eliminates the hubbub and massage-chair hawkers of open-to-the-public trade shows. Surf Show is intentionally held during retail down time—the January restocking period for outdoor-sports retailers—so it is a marketplace to get business done in a laid-back atmosphere. “When people come to the Surf Expo for the first time, they notice the relaxed, cool atmosphere. It’s that lifestyle we all buy into, and there are a lot of beautiful people at a surf show,” said Andres. “It’s just a great place to be if you’re in the watersports industry. If you’ve got a fishing, boating, or watersports shop, come check it out for yourself.” For more information, on January’s Surf Expo in Orlando, go to www. surfexpo.com.

very few years a new technique explodes on the bass fishing scene. Many of these trends just fade away, but some endure and become a part of every bass angler’s arsenal. The technique of the moment is the Ned rig. It is excellent for big numbers of spotted bass and smallmouths. It’ll catch largemouths, too. And it really shines when the fishing gets tough. On post-frontal days in winter, when bass are deep on vertical structure, it’s time to rig up a Ned and go to work. It is the perfect technique when bass are looking for a meal that is small and slow moving. A Ned rig is a miniature soft-plastic stick bait threaded on a light 1/8- to 1/32-ounce mushroom-style jighead. A drop of superglue holding the 3- to 5-inch worm to the jighead works wonders for making this rig durable. When fishing at winter depths, light line should be matched with a light spinning rod with a supple tip. Go as light as you dare, with 4- to 8-pound-test braid finished off with a fluorocarbon leader. When fish are active, a Ned worked steadily along the bottom is deadly. When they are sluggish, it’s better to let the jig sit on the bottom, allowing the bait’s vertical tail to do the work with the slightest shake of the rod tip. It’s not the most exciting way to fish, but it catches fish—sometimes when nothing else will.

hose who have seen his show “Man Fire Food” will recognize Roger Mooking as the iconic host of what has become the ultimate look at extreme outdoor or fire/smoke based cooking. Each week Roger introduces us to passionate and inventive outdoor cooking aficionados and an array of epic custom-built apparatuses designed to cook everything from 200-pound sturgeon to whole cows on a massive homemade spit. Roger’s visits give us insight into the innovative extremes outdoor cooks utilize in their pursuit of perfection. If you’re an outdoor cooking enthusiast, “Man Fire Food” is a must-watch program. We recently caught up with Roger to discuss the show’s success and rich content. CAM: Roger, your show has become a must-watch series for anyone who mans a grill. Why do you think your show has become so popular? Roger: Over the course of the last 7 seasons, we’ve seen an amazing array of outdoor and flame-inspired cooking devices and techniques featured on the show. If you love outdoor cooking, then you’re probably going to like the show. People just love being outside with loved ones. Backyard barbecues have been a longstanding tradition; in fact, you could say that tradition may even date back to the most primitive use of fire itself. There’s also something very special about slowing down and taking the time it demands to tend a hypnotizing fire and be immersed in the full experience, and getting to eat at the end of that entire adventure. The smells, sounds, sights of nature and breaking the hectic pace that a lot of us live at… it’s needed. CAM: So, you think cooking outdoors is somehow satisfying a primal urge? Roger: When I look back at some of the massive cuts of meat that have been prepared on previous episodes, it does seem like fire and food is primal, and I think we would all have to agree that cooking with wood, coals or heated rocks bridges a gap that is satisfying to those primal instincts.

CAM: What can we expect to see in future episodes? Roger: Humans all over the globe have been cooking with fire for many millennia now, and cultures all over the world have different ways of cooking with fire. I would like to explore extending the borders of the show to feature more places outside of the U.S. CAM: What advice would you offer the average outdoor cook? Roger: Just to enjoy the whole experience. I think the average outdoor cook is a more experienced cook, or else they would be a novice indoor cook. It takes a different level of attention to detail and mindfulness to cook outdoors because you have to deal with many other variables like wind, rain, keeping the fire going, how hot or cool is the fire, what are the hotspots, how much wood/charcoal do I need to add at a particular stage, bugs trying to get you, and all sorts of other things that you simply don’t have to worry about in a modern day North American kitchen with electricity and good shelter. Also, use the smoke as a seasoning advantage. You don’t need to add all kinds of stuff if you start with a freshly caught fish, some salt and a bit of good wood smoke; the work is already done, you just have to make sure you don’t get in the way or don’t burn the darn thing. It’s the magic of simplicity. CAM: How do you select the places that we see on the show? Roger: There is a very dedicated but small team of amazing people who find, research and vet all the potential locations for “Man Fire Food.” The winning candidates have endured hours of interviews and a barrage of questions as exhaustive as possible. The variables are so unimaginable to the viewer, and if we all do our jobs right, you have no idea how much work went into what looks so simple on TV.

FISH & FISHING

m

Feeding Strategies MARK SOSIN What appears obvious may be deceiving. Most anglers erroneously believe that when predators corner a hapless school of baitfish, they simply open their mouths and swim through the prey, gorging themselves in the process. It doesn’t happen that way. A predator must isolate and attack one specific victim at a time. That’s not always an easy task. A frantic school of baitfish sensing predators can appear as a shimmering mass of silver with each individual member of the school constantly changing position. Selecting a tasty morsel to ingest can frustrate even the most sophisticated gamefish. That’s one reason why you’ll find predators lurking under a pod of bait. The instant their intended prey strays from the pack, they strike. When you think about it, you can understand that any gamefish searches for a victim that is isolated, disabled or looks different from the others. Feeding is a tradeoff. Success centers on expending as little energy as possible for the food value received. Unsuccessfully chasing prey for long distances keeps a predator lean, hungry, and tends to slow it down. The easiest way to get a strike when you locate a school of baitfish starts with a cast into the middle of the school. It doesn’t matter whether you are fishing an artificial lure or a natural bait. The retrieve should work your offering toward the fringes of the school in basically the same direction in which the school is swimming or at a 45-degree angle to the basic direction. As your bait or lure eases toward the edge of the school, it is easier for a predator to isolate. And, it looks slightly different than the baitfish in the school. Some live bait fishermen squeeze a minnow before casting

it or drifting it so that it will be disabled. Clipping a fin or two also impairs swimming motion. The injured fish will have trouble swimming, and that means it will send out vibrations that attract the attention of predators. These frantic movements to obtain equilibrium frequently trigger the strike. Even during the anticipated feast of locating a school of baitfish, certain factors come into play. As water temperatures drop, a predator will not pursue its prey as fast and as far as it would in warmer water. When you are fishing a chum slick and fish are feeding on the chum, it is much more effective to fish an offering without retrieving it. A dead drift works just fine. I’ve seen that produce inshore and offshore including tuna and sailfish. I once had an opportunity to watch scientists monitor the behavior of a school of bluefish in a massive aquarium as they attacked a school of minnows. By chance, I focused on a minnow that did not move, even when attacked by a bluefish four times. Each time, the bluefish broke off the attack because the minnow did not behave as it should. On the fifth pass, the minnow moved and it was eaten faster than you can read this sentence. Finally, if you are trolling and see a school of small fish on the surface, approach the school slowly so as not to scare them. Ease alongside the school and work the fringes or establish a position ahead of the baitfish. If you prefer to cast, keep the boat away from the school and make the cast into the school. As you retrieve your offering and it begins to clear the fringes of the school, you should get a strike.
