| Hi all,
I know I haven't posted in ages--because science--but I have a question for the community. I've had a couple of good ideas for research projects lately that could potentially be really awe ... |

| So much working and so little fishing from me lately. Any suggestions for places I could go for an hour or so around my work (Harvard)? Or ways you find time to go fishing when you're swamped? | |

| I'm going to side with the Sea Raven folks. Specifically, the species Hemitripterus americanus. And it is most definitely in the scorpaeniforms (scorpionfishes).

| Short and sweet: I'm looking for
1) ponds with active fish and clear water (not necessarily big fish. Just fish) and/or 2) ponds with LOTS of chain pickerel. (again, not necessarily big) ... |

Also are you canadian/euro or just spent too much time in the scientific community. I don't think I've ever seen any one refer to meters fishing before. Although maybe more people do than I think, ... |

| Do people go to tournaments to watch? I don't have a kayak, or know anything about tournaments--but I think I'd learn a thing or two from watching. And Waltham is actually within biking distance. | |
