Wind Leaders

Wind Leaders

With the rising costs of fishing charters and fuel prices, I like to make every fishing trip as productive as possible. Anglers can better their chances of having a successful outing if they bring the appropriate gear and equipment to tackle the many scenarios that a saltwater angler may encounter while offshore or at the local islands. Depending on the destination and targeted fish species, I carry one of two tackle boxes that I have assembled with specific terminal tackle and accessories, designed to serve two totally different purposes.

When fishing on trips of three days or less, I normally carry my local tackle box, which is a soft backpack style bag, complete with tackle trays and several pouches or compartments for my tools, spools of line, suntan lotion and whatever else I might need to access while on the deck. Soft tackle boxes are becoming popular, as they are very affordable, lightweight, easily accessible and they take up very little space, which is valuable on small private boats. Most manufacturers provide a wide selection of shoulder strap and backpack type soft tackle boxes.

When fishing for longer durations, I bring out the heavy box. This is a custom wooden box that takes two people to carry and when sitting on the deck, serves as my personal tackle station, complete with bait and lure rigging supplies, rod holders and a wide range of other goodies. Pull-out and sliding trays, deep compartments and a hanging jig locker highlight this tackle box. I also incorporate soft tackle-packs within this box that are filled with trolling feathers, jigs and skirts. Having witnessed, as well as been a part in, some unbelievable and amazing scenes and bites while fishing offshore waters, I try my best to stock this box before every multi-day fishing adventure.

Local Tackle Box:

• Hooks - Both circle and j-hooks in sizes ranging up to 6/O, with plenty of extras in the sizes that match the bait I anticipate fishing with. Colors will include silver, bronze and red. Favorites include Owner®, Gamakatsu® and Mustad®
• Lines - Single shot spools of mono fishing lines, as well as braided spectra lines. Mono and fluorocarbon wind-on leaders
• Sinkers - Torpedoes, sliding eggs, split-shot, lead-heads and other lead weights are used for both dropper-loop and artificial swim-bait fishing
• Lures - Jigs and Irons made of ceramic or metal, in several variations and colors for surface and bottom yo-yo jigging. Plastic and rubber artificial baits, including swim-baits and scented grubs, crabs and shrimps
• Accessories - Pliers, knives, hook sharpeners, sunscreen and motion sickness pills, along with other medical remedies

Long Range Tackle Box:

• Hooks - Both circle and j-hooks, from size #1-11/O, with a good assortment of ringed, laser sharpened bait hooks. I prefer the bronze color over the silver, and am beginning to experiment with the red hooks, with favorable results.
• Lines - Bulk spools of commonly used monofilament fishing line classes, typically 30lb.-80lb. test line. I also carry several shots of heavier lb. test fluorocarbon, for my top shot and leader, as well as some braided wire. Most of my long range fishing reels are spooled with spectra backing, so I find it unnecessary to bring too much fishing line.
• Sinkers - I normally separate my weights from my tackle box and carry them separately. The reason being, I take a whole range of lead weights with me on longer trips and they can weigh my box down substantially.
• Lures - Jigs, lures, feathers and artificial baits take up most of the space in my long range tackle box. These include surface lures, yo-yo jigs and knife jigs for deep water jigging, plastic and rubber swim-baits, bombs and trolling lures.
• Accessories - Pliers, crimps, knives, hook sharpeners, scales, bait catchers, ties and trolling straps are some essentials that you will most likely need.

Old salts, including captains and experienced anglers, will tell you that being prepared on the open water is essential to having a safe and enjoyable trip. Anglers should take the necessary preparations when planning their local and long range fishing trips and this begins with the right selection of terminal tackle, gear and accessories, as well the as the proper maintenance of your fishing rod and reels.

I have been fishing for over 20 years of my life and hope to continue to do so for the next 30. I have dedicated myself to sharing what I have learned through those years in the hopes of promoting this popular outdoor recreational activity by providing commentaries and reviews, video tutorials, fishing tips and more.

Wind Boom, Wind Bust by Brady, Jonathan [Paperback] $114.71 During the last decade, wind energy has become one of the fastest growing sources of energy in the world. Government employed regulatory and financial incentives have played a salient role in this rapid expansion of wind energy production and industry. Interestingly, some advanced industrial nations, such as Germany, have become pioneers of this wind boom while others, Canada, for example, have been slower to harness this energy supply and the economic benefits associated with a robust domestic wind industry. This study examines what conditions affect the will and ability of political leaders to create incentives that stimulate private investment in their countrys wind industry. This analysis should help explain why a government of one advanced industrial state adjusted market conditions in order to strongly encourage the redirection of private capital into the wind industry during the early 1990s, while the government of a similarly advanced industrial state did not. The book is addressed to professionals in the energy sector, investment community and policy divisions of national and regional governments. It is also directed towards scholars of energy policy and of the dynamic interplay between the state and the market.

Walking With the Wind (Paperback) $20.08 The son of an Alabama sharecropper, and now a sixth-term United States Congressman, John Lewis has led an extraordinary life, one that found him at the epicenter of the civil rights movement in the late `50s and `60s. As Chairman of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee (SNCC), Lewis was present at all the major battlefields of the movement. Arrested more than forty times and severely beaten on several occasions, he was one of the youngest yet most courageous leaders. Written with charm, warmth, and honesty, Walking with the Wind offers rare insight into the movement and the personalities of all the civil rights leaders-what was happening behind the scenes, the infighting, struggles, and triumphs. Lewis takes us from the Nashville lunch counter sit-ins to the Edmund Pettus Bridge in Selma, Alabama, where he led more than five hundred marchers on what became known as "Bloody Sunday." While there have been exceptional books on the movement, there has never been a front-line account by a man like John Lewis. A true American hero, his story is "destined to become a classic in civil rights literature." (Los Angeles Times)
