DNA STUDIES OF HUMANS GIVE HINT WHY HATCHERY FISH ARE FINE

Comments Off on DNA STUDIES OF HUMANS GIVE HINT WHY HATCHERY FISH ARE FINE

Recent studies of the human DNA system have come to an illuminating conclusion: all of us are not only descended from proto-humans who lived in East Africa several million years ago; we may actually all be descended from one mother. Thus does science give, at times, support to the Biblical view of the world. And thus, too, does one science illuminate why another allegedly scientific view of things—that of salmon stock rebuilding—may be faulty.

Winter Bass Patterns

Comments Off on Winter Bass Patterns

Bass fishing this time of year can be real frustrating here in the south. Some warm days make you think the fish should be active but you can get fooled easily. Sometimes it does pay off to go bass fishing in the winter. Whether you catch fish or not it is better than sitting home!
