| Not all fishes lay eggs. |
| Fishes like split fins, surf-perches, and some sharks instead carry and give birth to live young. Scientists have also discovered that the embryos of some of these fishes actually consume each other in the womb. How’s that for creepy fish facts? |

| Fishes hear with both their ears and their skeletons, sensing the vibrations of sound in the water. |
| Scientists even suspect that sharks can clearly hear sounds from over 3 km away. |

| Even Catfish are finicky |
| Taste Buds ? Catfish have a more refined sense of flavor than humans. Our 10,000 taste buds may seem like a lot, but catfish can have as many as 175,000. This helps them find the exact location of their next meal. |

| Fish have built in radar? |
| Built-in Radar Many species of fish have a powerful sense organ called the lateral line running across their body. It can detect motion in the water, allowing them to hunt prey, avoid predators, and navigate in the dark. |

Aug 9, 2023; 11:24PM - Interesting fish hook find

Tip&Trick Description 1:
Was shark meat a part of the cuisine in ancient Israel over 6,000 years ago? Archaeologists
have recently uncovered a significant clue suggesting so. In the archaeological site of
Ashkelon, one of the oldest copper fishhooks was found, shedding light on the past. This
fishhook, originating from an agricultural village during the Chalcolithic period, is believed
to have played a role in community-wide deep-sea fishing expeditions.
Ashkelon, a city layered with history, was constructed atop an ancient seaport bearing the same
name. Its roots extend as far back as ancient Egypt, with previous findings unearthing
structures from the Byzantine and Roman eras. The discovered hook measures approximately 6.5
centimeters in length and 4 centimeters in width. This size indicates its capacity to capture
marine creatures, including sharks measuring between 2 and 3 meters, or large fish like tuna—
both commonly found in the Mediterranean Sea.
Considering the insights marine biologists possess about the deep-sea ecosystems in this
region, it's plausible that sharks were a prime target for these fishing endeavors. |

The On coming Full moon had little or no effect on the offshore fishing as the SAILFISH bite turned up a notch last week. The inshore fishery alive with Yellowtail Jack, Bonitos and Big Eye was void of any consistent Roosterfish action which is a surprise for this time of year. Leading the offshore pack was captain Adolofo and Captain Cheva who fished 5 days with Mr. Richard Engles Group. In that time the group landed 39 SAILFISH, 35 YELLOWFIN TUNA ( SCHOOL SIZE ),4 ROOSTERFISH, 3 YELLOWTAIL JACKS, 38 BONITOS and 7 NEEDLEFISH. Chicago Anglers, Fred Aigner's group fishing aboard the Dos Hermanos 2, Secuestro and Moramay landed 6 SAILFISH, 2 DORADOS, 10 YELLOWTAIL JACKS, 4 BIG EYE JACKS, 30 BONITOS and 4 NEEDLEFISH in 2 days of fishing. Mr. Lo fishing aboard the Janeth for two days landed 5 YELLOWTAIL JACKS, 8 BOINITOS, 3 NEEDLE FISH, 2 SAILFISH and missed two others. Mr. Hustrulid fishing aboard the Marlin Azul landed 2 SAILFISH in one day offshore. First time visitor's to I/Z, John and Sue Cliff fishing aboard the Secuestro landed 4 YELLOFIN TUNA, and 1 SAILFISH on a fly then landed 4 BIG EYE JACKS on another day inshore. Mr. & Mrs. Cliff also fished aboard the Dos Hermanso 2 for 2 offshore days landing 6 SAILFISH and loosing 1 other. Mr. Brad Miller and Mike Cummings fishing aboard the La Bamba with Captain Jose, Landed 4 SAILFISH and lost 2 others in one offshore day and while fishing with Captain Franciso on the Marfel landed 1 ROOSTERFISH, 8 YELLOWTAIL JACKS, 8 BONITOS and 4 NEEDLEFISH. Angler Mr. Silva fishing with Captain Jose landed 6 SAILFISH in 2 days offshore. Buffalo angler Larry Kent landed an estimated 200 Lb Blue Marlin and then had anther Big Fish eat Two live bonitos at the same time, hooking the fish on two separate rods at the same time. As luck would have it the fish, estimated to be over 400 lbs., was able to throw both hooks. The live bait was being slow trolled using Zwing downriggers. ( wwwzwingdownrigger.com )
Ixtapa Zihuatanejo weather: Humid and hot with a few passing showers.
Sea Conditions: Calm to Moderate
Bait Supply: Good.
Sincerely,
Stan Lushinsky
