Fifty. The big 5-0. L, as in Life more than half over. What should a sportsman who has reached that grim age do to feel like a young man again? Trying to catch 50 species of fish in one week off the Florida Keys is a very good start.

Q:Hey all, quick question. Last year I went out on one of the party boats in Belmar. We were going after Bluefish. I had no problem hooking up, but I lost about 8 rigs to the two fish I brought over the side. I checked the lines and every time the knot had come undone. My question is, in your opinion, what is the best (and strongest) knot in order to attach terminal tackle to the line (I usually use monofilament 20 lb test). Thanks.

Q:The "Idle Iron Policy." In a hasty response to the 2010 oil spill, the government issued the "Idle Iron Policy" in October of 2010 ordering all non producing rigs and platforms in the Gulf of Mexico be plugged and any remaining structure be removed within five years. These strucutures have live coral growing on them and are critical marine habitat. These rigs are considered to be the largest artificial coral reefs in the world. Studies show that fish populations around the rigs are up to 60 percent higher. They are home to our federally protected redfish, the big breeders, and are a crucial asset in rebuilding the snapper numbers, not to mention the thousands of other benefits of live coral. As you read this, habitat is being destroyed in the Gulf at an alarming rate. We are doing irreparable damage. We can't damage the environment so badly with an oil spill, which killed, and is still killing, all kinds of coral and marine animals, and then in response destroy even more habitat. The government says that they are not destroying rigs with coral on them, but this is not true. For just one example google rig HI398. This rig has an established coral reef growing on it, and is slated for destruction. Please contact your congressman and tell him to support the "Rigs to Reefs" program. And to do it quick.
