Rod-and-reel anglers only; sorry, no jugsWednesday, July 20, 2011 @ 2:40AMQuestion: I would like to know if it's OK to jug line fish for catfish in California lakes. Jug line fishing is having a float (such as a one-gallon plastic jug) tied to a series of hooks, all on one fishing line.

Tuna lovers head to Ocean City tournamentTuesday, July 19, 2011 @ 5:06AMFor my money there's no tougher, harder fighting fish than the tuna. Ounce for ounce, this aerodynamic speedster's football-shaped physique will give even the most able angler the fight of his or her life. Over the years I've caught both yellowfin and bluefin tuna from 40 to over 100 pounds, and every battle pretty much left me rubber-armed and gasping for breath. Over the years I've tangled ...
