Cleaning Fish- Freshwater Fishing
Linda and I ate fish a lot - out of economic need.
We would fish for bass during the day but release all them and run trot lines at night for cats.
Filets are much better to me than fish cleaned any other way.
You can filet any fish but bigger bream and crappie are better.
Fish left on ice overnight produce bloodless filets the next day and are much less "fishy" tasting, I think.
Fish fileted and fried on the lake bank right after catching them are best, but if I am going to wait till I get home to clean them I always ice them down.
IngentaConnect Fresh Water Fish Habitat Science and Management in India
The fresh water resources of the country which are varied harbor 587 species of finfish and account for 9.3 percent of global inland fish production.
India'snatural capital of fish habitat resource has been eroded as reflected in loss of bio-diversity and reduced fish landings.
Studies on the ecology, environment and fisheries of five major river systems in addition to reservoirs and flood plain lake fisheries have been conducted with greater focus on water quality and less on physical habitat parameters.
The Central Water Commission is responsible for development of all freshwater bodies whereas, the National River Conservation Directorate is responsible for river conservation .
improvement in water quality and not fish habitat improvement.
Lack of concern for fish habitat is reflected in the planning of Farakka barrage on the river Ganga (The Ganges) and its impact on 'Hilsa' run.
Fishery scientists and resource users are not involved in the river conservation program.
The fresh water habitat management situation in India evokes both concern and hope.
Concern arises out of the missing elements in the existing fish habitat research, planning and management of resource.

WCS Freshwater Fish Conservation
Habitat Types Major river systems Crater lakes Major lakes Wildlife Present: Malagasy freshwater fishes are 'living fossils' and belong to the most primitive of catfish, herrings, cychlids, killies, silversides and their allied species High level of endemism: 8 of Madagascar’s 25 amphidromous and all of its 101 known freshwater fishes are endemic at the species level.
Launched in 1993, this program initially sought to collect live specimens of five threatened endemic fish with the goal of establishing secure managed populations as insurance against their global extinction.
Ongoing exploration has more than doubled the size of Madagascar’s freshwater fish fauna and identified areas that still support aquatic communities dominated by indigenous species.
While captive breeding programs will continue to play a critical role in saving the island’s endemic fishes, it is now realistic to envisage a more active in situ component to this conservation effort, to which WCS is uniquely well positioned to contribute.
The Human Aspect Fish, both fresh and dried, is a significant component in the diet of the Malagasy people.
Freshwater fisheries play an important role in the economy of the Red Island.
