    in Questions About Trout & Salmon Trolling?

    Fishnut it would make sense to fish with scent on spoons and other tackle then wouldn’t it ??

    Yes it would. And fresh bait is a must. The problem with spoons is you would have to reapply it to spoons pretty regularly. I’ve been doing a lot of reading this winter. And if a fish can smell it’s way back to the spot it was born in, it can surely tell the difference between fresh bait and dead bait. Just my thoughts.

    2019 Sheds

    in Big / Small Game

    I don't know how you guys do it.  All I ever find are dead heads.  I walked around Gators land with him Wednesday and all I found was three doe skulls and a fox skull...... I have put a ton of time in and never have found a shed.  


    Lots of miles. My kids walk 10 miles a day on average while shed hunting. They have been hunting sheds every weekend since December.
    I don’t have that kind of time so I don’t find nearly as many. A lot of people that won’t let you hunt deer on their property will let you shed hunt on their property, most just want to see what you have found.

    Do fish have olfactory senses? How do they smell without a "nose?" Find out on this Moment of Science.

    Smell, or olfaction, as scientists call it, is an important sense for many fish. Those little holes that look like nostrils are called nares. Nares don’t lead to the throat the way nostrils do in mammals, but open up into a chamber lined with sensory pads.

    Olfactory Systems Of A Fish

    Not all fish move water in and out through these nares in quite the same ways, but key to a strong sense of smell for fish is the ability to move water rapidly over these sensory pads.

    Some fish can pick up chemical signals when immobile by pumping water through their olfactory system via tiny hairs called cilia.

    Other fish can pump water by a muscular movement. Some fish, such as smaller species of mackerel, have an olfactory system that requires them to swim in order to get water moving through their nares.

    When the sensory pads pick up chemical signals, they transmit them to the fish’s forebrain, which interprets the signal and incites the fish to respond appropriately.

    Chemical Cues

    If the chemicals signal food, the fish will pursue the food. Or if the chemicals signal danger, it’ll flee. But fish use chemical cues in all sorts of ways. For instance, a large group of fishes release a chemical when they’re wounded that incites other fish to flee.

    And then there are salmon, which are known for a superb sense of smell that enables them to sense the stream where they were born, so that they may return to it to spawn.
