UD Wind Power Program | Publications
These articles primarily address offshore wind power, some are general to both inland and offshore wind power. They are organized by topic and include peer-reviewed journal articles and chapters in books. In addition to the publications organized by topic, also see Theses and Dissertations, and Reports, below publications. Due to copyright restrictions, many of the peer-reviewed, published articles are given here as a proof copy, possibly with some typographical errors, or as a link to the journal--the latter may require a subscription or payment to access the full published article. If an article is Open Access, anyone may download without payment. If none of these options work, or if no PDF or URL link is given, try contacting the first author or corresponding author of the article. These publications are authored or co-authored by faculty and students of the UD wind group.

Monster shark tourney organizer dead in duck hunting accident
Steven James, president of the Boston Big Game Fishing Club, sponsor of the Oak Bluffs Monster Shark tournament for the past 27 years, was one of two duck hunters who died Tuesday morning when their 15-foot aluminum skiff overturned in the Westport River with Mr. James and two others aboard.
Bristol County District Attorney C. Samuel Sutter Jr.'s office identified the dead hunters as Mr. James, 53, of Marshfield and Robert Becher, 55, of Cromwell, Connecticut. The survivor is Gregg Angell, 51, of Westport.
Coast Guard Sector Southeastern New England received a report at approximately 9 am, Tuesday, from the Westport harbormaster, who described an overturned skiff near Westport River, according to a Coast Guard First District press release. A Coast Guard Air Station Cape Cod MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter rescue crew and a Coast Guard Station Menemsha, 47-foot motor life boat rescue crew immediately launched a search. The helicopter rescue crew located the overturned skiff in the river.
The helicopter crew located Mr. James and Mr. Becher in the water at approximately 10:30 am about one half mile from the overturned skiff. The harbormaster recovered the bodies.
The helicopter crew also located Mr. Angell, who had managed to reach a small island in the river. The Coast Guard crew safely hoisted him into the helicopter and took him to Rhode Island Hospital. He is expected to recover.
At the time of the rescue, the air temperature was eight degrees, water temperature 35 degrees, and the wind was blowing at 30 knots, creating a 3-foot chop.
Mr. James was not as well known on Martha's Vineyard as was the tournament he began in 1986, which attracted hundreds of spectators and fishermen to Oak Bluffs harbor every July. In 2004, the 19th annual tournament attracted a record 245 participating entrants willing to pay the entry fee of more than $1,000 per boat.The catch of a 1,191-pound tiger shark in 2005 attracted the attention of the Humane Society of the United States, the country's largest animal rights group, which began a national campaign to pressure Oak Bluffs selectmen to end the contest.
Throughout the years, Mr. James was unapologetic, insisting that the tournament was good for the town, operated within state and federal fishery guidelines, and maintained limits that resulted in few sharks brought to the dock. Following years of controversy and recent unhappiness with Oak Bluffs town officials, who insisted Mr. James help pay for the cost of public safety services associated with the shark tournament, last fall Mr. James hinted that he planned to move the shark tournament to Newport, Rhode Island.
Peter Martell, owner of the Wesley Hotel, which served as unofficial headquarters of the Oak Bluffs Monster Shark Tournament, said Tuesday that Mr. James' death is a great shock. Mr. Martell said he enjoyed a good business and personal relationship with Mr. James, whom he described as an avid sportsman.
"He was a gentleman, very honest and honorable," Mr. Martell said in a telephone conversation Tuesday. "He worked on that tournament for six or seven months every year. Without him I think it will go away."
Mr. James was not married and did not have any children.
RIP.Mr. James. Your impact on Oak Bluffs and the island will be long remembered.
RIP Mr. James and thank you for the years of memories. May your family find comfort knowing that you placed a lot of smiles on peoples faces.
So sorry to hear about this. I watched it today on the news and had no idea. Sorry for the families losses.
Rest in Peace Fellow Shark hunter. See you on the other side.
My condolences to his loved ones. A big pair of shoes to fill. Perhaps a person will emerge to run a kindler gentler shark tournament. Quite a bite out of the economy will be felt from the business owners, sales numbers on every product, no need for overtime for food service employees that week, less docking fees, less OT for cops and the notion of his detractors may change to acknowledge a very nice man who threw a hell of a party.
For the past two years, the days of the tournament were my most profitable driving taxi. Better than the 4th, Illumination and the fireworks.
I was friends with Stevie for over 30 years. He was passionate about the outdoors and lived for a battle either vs the elements or against those who wanted a fight. He will be greatly missed by his friends and family.

In response to "Seeking assurance," I ask, if Rebecca Douglas is so happy with the warm welcome in Billings and "Never felt so accepted," then why does she feel the need to pass more laws?
I am tired of radical minority groups expecting the majority to always be tolerant of them, yet they are not tolerant of our ways and beliefs. Most religious groups follow moral teachings where homosexual acts are an abomination and sinful as is adultery and prostitution. Passing laws to embrace those acts goes against our moral teachings and, therefore, is not tolerant of our beliefs. Most people separate the person from the act and respect the person as a child of God but cannot accept the act as morally right.
Behavior that is intrinsically wrong cannot be made right through legislation. If the City Council thinks Douglas is being discriminated against, then it is discrimination to put prostitutes in jail and for men to receive unfair judgments in a divorce court because they committed adultery.
I have friends and relatives who are "real" homosexuals and they have stayed at my home and I have stayed at theirs. What they do behind closed doors is between them and God and is none of my business as is what I do behind my closed door. They are not radical and do not try to pass laws that impose their ways on my life. We have many federal and state laws that protect the individual and we do not need any more.

I started training with the skxwxú7mesh kuxu7h siyaya (Squamish Canoe Family) a few months ago.
We would practise three days a week with the goal to come together as a family and to build our strength and stamina to make the paddle up to the Bella Bella Tribal Canoe Journey. This journey would be a big celebration as Tribal Journeys started in 1993 up in Bella Bella and have been going strong ever since as one of the largest cultural event on the northwest coast.
When I first arrived for practice one evening in the spring, I was introduced to the Squamish Kuxu7h (canoe). I was told that he was a male and that his sister the Keulili was down south. She's a canoe too.
On our first paddle on the Burrard Inlet, we paddled from the Mosquito Creek marina into the harbour. Our bow man Uncle Buck (Alroy Baker) said a prayer in the skxwxú7mesh kuxu7h (Squamish) language and we paddled our way towards the Lions Gate Bridge. Some of the paddlers said a prayer on behalf of loved ones, while others just laughed and joked. I knew I was hooked. This was my new canoe family.
On July 1, we headed off by ferry with Kuxu7h being towed towards Campbell River where we would have our official launch of tribal journeys and join the other canoe families throughout the U.S. and southern Canada.
On July 2 we launched Kuxu7h and paddled across the channel to meet the 20 other canoes that were camping at Cape Mudge. Once out of the safety of the harbour, Kuxu7h hit the current and our canoe swung several feet to the left. This was definitely new waters for me and different from the more predictable Sechelt and Jervis Inlet waters that I am accustomed to kayaking on.
As we paddled, I looked to the north and south for whales. Nothing yet, so I paddled and joined in on the singing of our songs.
On July 3, we launched Kuxu7h and left Campbell River and headed towards Browns Bay and then to Sayward Island. The wind was a bit sharp even for a July day and I was a little chilled, but we had spotted stalashen (killer whales) and I was thrilled.
When we arrived at our destination, the local Sayward residents had a salmon barbecue, a hot tub and showers — such a treat after a good paddle. Cousin Erika Vader and I were in Sayward heaven.
In the Johnston Strait, weather (wind), currents and tides are the three big chiefs that you dare not ignore. Our skipper decided to pull our canoe out of the water and trailer to Alert Bay. It proved to be a very wise decision as the winds picked up that day causing two canoes to capsize.
On our second night in Alert Bay, we had a seafood feast in potlatch style — halibut, salmon, clams, ooligans, ooligan grease and herring eggs. Herring eggs, a northwest coast delicacy, is by far a true gift and a treat of all treats — more than words can express.
Protocol in the longhouse ended at 3:30 a.m. and our canoe family would be up a mere two hours later to break camp and launch Kuxu7h. I was napping during the day to get myself through the rich, but long cultural nights.
We paddled our way to Fort Renfrew where we were greeted by the community with a lunch and later that evening a dinner and protocol.
On the following night, we would be in Port Hardy potlatching again with the local community and fellow canoe families. Each community graciously and generously fed hundreds of people and paddlers.
The canoe journey would continue to Bella Bella and I would return by sail boat back to the Sunshine Coast to return to work. I look forward to the next journey.

Royal School of Needlework gains Quality Assurance Agency approval
The Royal School of Needlework (RSN) Degree programme, the only degree of its kind in Europe, has been awarded the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education (QAA) recognition for its BA (Hons) Hand Embroidery for Fashion, Interiors, Textile Art which is validated by the University for the Creative Arts.
This recognition of the RSN's higher education provision now opens up the RSN degree course to applications from international students.
Also this year the RSN achieved re-accreditation of its Certificate and Diploma in technical hand embroidery from the British Accreditation Council, which, like the degree course, are unique courses not available elsewhere. Together these achievements reinforce the RSN's position as the world-renowned international centre for excellence in hand embroidery.
Dr Susan Kay-Williams, Chief Executive of the RSN says 'achieving the QAA recognition has required a great deal of work for a small organisation. We have had to go through as many hoops as much larger institutions with far fewer people to do the work, so we are very pleased and relieved to have achieved accreditation and to have been recognised with four areas of good practice. '
The RSN was commended for the quality of student learning opportunities and QAA recognised good practice in the extensive involvement of employers and students in course design, the comprehensive, effective and rigorous admissions processes, the use of bursaries to encourage and support student learning and the effective system in place to engage and respond to the student voice.
The BA (Hons) Hand Embroidery for Fashion, Interiors, Textile Art course is delivered at the RSN at Hampton Court Palace and offers a unique learning experience for students including access to unparalleled industry contacts and work placements. The ratio of staff to students is significantly above the national average allowing for individual guidance in the students' study plan and progress.
Course Leader, Angie Wyman says 'We are delighted to receive the recognition from the QAA, an endorsement of the quality of the educational experience that we offer from our Higher education programmes'.

On Wisconsin
Three books reveal distinct perspectives on Wisconsin life
People of the Big Voice: Photographs of Ho-Chunk Families by Charles Van Schaick, 1879–1942 (2011, Wisconsin HIstorical Society Press) offers a visual history of Ho-Chunk families through more than three hundred photographs.
What it Means to Be a Badger: Barry Alvaraz and Wisconsin's Greatest Players (2011, Triumph Books) explores Badger football by allowing legends to share stories in their own words.
And Tavern League: Portraits of Wisconsin Bars (2011, Wisconsin Historical Society Press) is an homage to the local tavern, with sixty full-page photographs of bar life from Monroe to Milwaukee to Tomahawk. The images are lonely and eerie yet utterly familier and somehow comforting.

VIVUS Proposal Included Leland Wilson, Chief Executive Officer, Offering to Retire
VIVUS Compromise Included Board Consisting of Four Nominees From Each Side and One Independent Investor Nominee
If You Support This Settlement Proposal Vote the GOLD Proxy Card
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., July 17, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- VIVUS, Inc. (Nasdaq:VVUS) (the "Company" or "VIVUS") today announced its latest proposed settlement offer to First Manhattan Co. (FMC) was immediately rejected by FMC. The VIVUS proposal included equal representation from VIVUS and FMC, four from each side and one independent investor representative. The four VIVUS nominees proposed were the four most recently appointed Directors. The four FMC nominees proposed included the three recommended by ISS and a new CEO. The proposal also included an offer from Leland Wilson, Chief Executive Officer of VIVUS, to resign from the VIVUS Board and to retire as CEO when the Board of Directors has appointed a new CEO. Mr. Wilson is also willing to offer his services as a senior advisor to the Board and the Company to ensure a seamless transition following his retirement. Mr. Wilson stated, "It is our desire to end this closely contested proxy battle without handing the company over to Mr. Colin ahead of the vote. We believe our proposal, which included my stepping down as CEO of VIVUS, was extremely fair and balanced. We are very disappointed with his complete rejection of our proposal. If you believe our proposal is in the best interest of stockholders vote the GOLD proxy card." VIVUS stockholders are reminded that their vote is extremely important, no matter how many or how few shares they own. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, you have an opportunity to protect your investment in VIVUS by voting the GOLD proxy card. Please do not return or otherwise vote any white proxy card sent to you by FMC. Even if stockholders have already voted using the white proxy card, they have the right to change their vote to the GOLD proxy card and support VIVUS's proposed compromise. Since time is short, the Company asks that stockholders please vote by telephone or Internet according to the instructions on the GOLD proxy card. Voting by telephone or Internet, which is the best way for stockholders to ensure that their votes will be counted, will be open until 11:59pm Eastern Time on Wednesday, July 17, 2013.

I found a nice discussion of the J & P umbrella trellis for climbing roses but it is over a year old. I just ordered the largest of these for my New Dawn which I have struggled to train on a small picket fence (it just does not like horizontal). The price was right, but the discussion indicates it is a very flimsy structure. I am wondering if I can get someone to help me put a post in the ground and attach it to that. Has anyone done that? One of the posters said after her J&P umbrella trellis fell over in the wind, she tied it to a fence. Hmmm. Can I just start with it next to a post, or put the post up the middle of it? I welcome suggestions. BTW I checked out the garden artisans and whoa a totally different price range, well beyond my reach. |
Follow-Up Postings:
karin, I had the large umbrella trellis with a Teasing Georgia on it. If I were you I would go to Home Depot and get some of the rebar stakes and put those in the ground next to it to help with support. A post up the middle might be a good idea too, if you are going to grow the rose outside of the 'tube'. Also I would spray the entire thing, including the screws with rust proofing spray paint before assembling it. What happened to my trellis is that the joint of two sections rusted out where they were screwed together and that weakened the structure and it literally snapped off at the base in a strong wind. The make up of the trellis is thin at the base and wide at the top. Add the weight of a large climber to it and you can have problems. Also don't let you rose get too overgrown so that it is too top heavy. New Dawn is one of those roses that can get big. Maybe in your zone, it won't be that much of a problem. |
Thanks. I am going to think this through. My New Dawn is vigorous and literally exploded all over the fence into the driveway and yard on either side and I cut it down this spring. It is already bursting with new canes. I am wondering if I use a ladder for it to climb up if that wouldn't be sturdiest. The order for the trellis hasn't shipped and maybe I will cancel it. |
Why don't you just get some re-bar and make a trellis ? Put some conduit down deep in the ground, in 3 or 4 corners, or you can also use sewer-pipe, and then stand the rebar into the conduit and drive it deeper into the ground, if the sewer-pipe or conduit is wide you can also reinforce it with some Quikset.... and tie the rebar at the top w/wire that won't rust-out... get long rebar so you can walk under it.... rebar will bend enough to make an upside down V, and there you have a trellis that will stand for years and support most anything you put on it.... this was discussed on several Forums in the past and it really works quite well., and is much cheaper than buying a flimsy thingy that collapses after 5 months or in the first wind...... sally |
There is not an umbrella trellis LARGE enough for my New Dawn..it is a house eater! |
I like the ribar and sewer pipe idea. I was thinking of copper plumbing piping also. My New Dawn was immense at the end of last summer (4 or 5 years old now) and I am also wondering if I can put a section of split rail fence in front of it to climb. I would have to get help but it might look awesome right outside my back door which faces south. |

Dust off your old math skills, we're getting into the meat of the Excel application now. Formulas are equations that perform calculations on values in your worksheet. You'll use them to save yourself time, when you need to repeat the same set of calculations to a large range of numbers. Open up a brand new worksheet. We've been ignoring this formula bar quite a bit so far, but now this is where our focus is going to go. Every formula begins with an equals sign. So let's go to cell A1 and see the difference between putting in 3+3 in Excel, and then moving over to cell C1 and putting inputting = 3 +3. Notice that when you put in the equals sign, the formula bar becomes active. And you know it's become active because you get these two new icons here. You have the Council icon, or the X, which removes the information you've put in the formula bar, and you get the Enter icon, or the check mark, which will accept the information that you put in. Watch what happens when I hit the Enter.
I get the answer, number 6. Notice how that's different than when I typed in 3+3 in cell A1 without the equals sign ahead of it. What's happening here? Well, in cell A1, the 3+3 there is seen as just in general format, and Excel does not do anything with it because it did not see the equals sign ahead of it. But in cell C1, because there was an equals sign at the beginning of that string of numbers, it indicated to Excel that it had to perform a calculation, which it's done in C1. So there's the big difference between putting in information with or without an equals sign in the application. The equals sign tells Excel to go ahead and calculate whatever it finds after words, where as if I don't put it in, it's just thinking I'm typing in some information and putting it in the cell as text in this example.
Another thing you're going to need to know when you're working with formulas in Excel is, what kind of operands or how do I tell Excel how to do the calculations? What keys do I type in to let it know I want it to divide something? Here's what it accepts. if I want to subtract two numbers from each other, I would put in a subtraction number or a hyphen. Just as I normally would. So 5-2 gives me 3. Moving over to cell H 1, I want to put in a formula that multiplies two numbers together. So let's put in 2 *, and I use the Shift+8 to get the asterix, which is the symbol for multiplying numbers together in Excel.
2*3 gives me 6. So the symbol to multiply information together is an asterix. Move over to cell I1. To divide numbers, 8 divided by, I use the slash right at the very bottom of my keyboard to the left of the shift key, the slash, 8 /2 is 4. Those are the basic operators that you're going to use within Excel.
You can combine those to get more complicated formulas and we'll be talking about the order of operations in our next movie.

WASHINGTON—Secretary of State John Kerry says the United Nations cannot tell the world anything about a chemical weapons attack the U.S. doesn't already know and hasn't already made public.
He says President Barack Obama will ensure the U.S. makes decisions on its own timeline, based on its own values and interests.
Kerry says U.N. investigators probing a chemical weapons attack are limited by a mandate to determine if an attack took place. He says they won't say who is responsible.
Obama has been seeking international support for a potential military strike against the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad.
But the U.N. Security Council has not backed a strike.
Kerry says the U.N. cannot galvanize the world to act the way it should.

Hi, for those of you in DC / Northern VA area:
With it now being legal to carry in National Parks (edit: actually 2/2010), this is no longer a moot point:
I just checked google maps, and apparently a portion of GW parkway is considered DC land? This area is right above Reagan Airport - Lady Bird Johnson Park / that mini island that is one side of the Arlington Memorial Bridge.
Anyone know for sure? If it is true, I wonder if there is any risk for driving through while CCing... That land is I would assume patroled by Park Police, not DC police. Thoughts?


text: Mind & Brain See Inside Why Music Moves Us New research explains music's power over human emotions and its benefits to our mental and physical well-being By Karen Schrock Getty Images As a recreational vocalist, I have spent some of the most moving moments of my life engaged in song. As a college student, my eyes would often well up with tears during my twice-a-week choir rehearsals. I would feel relaxed and at peace yet excited and joyful, and I occasionally experienced a thrill so powerful that it sent shivers down my spine. I also felt connected with fellow musicians in a way I did not with friends who did not sing with me. I have often wondered what it is about music that elicits such emotions. Philosophers and biologists have asked the question for centuries, noting that humans are universally drawn to music. It consoles us when we are sad, pumps us up in happier times and bonds us to others, even though listening to an iPod or singing "Happy Birthday" does not seem necessary for survival or reproduction.

Landec Restates First Quarter Fiscal Year 2013 Financial Statements Increasing Net Income Due To Change In Quarterly Recognition Of The Fair Value Of Windset
MENLO PARK, Calif., Jan. 2, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Landec Corporation (Nasdaq:LNDC), today reported that the Company has restated its financial statements for the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 to reflect a $2.9 million increase in the previously reported first quarter fiscal year 2013 fair market value of Windset Holdings 2010 Ltd. ("Windset").
In December 2012, during the second quarter review of the most recently updated fair market value appraisal of our minority equity investment in Windset for fiscal year 2013, the Company became aware that it had miscalculated the fair market value of Windset at the end of its first quarter of fiscal year 2013. This miscalculation has no impact on our projected annual fair market value of Windset which has been independently valued. As a result, in the first fiscal quarter ended August 26, 2012, the Company understated the recorded value of its Windset investment, and the related investment income, by $2.9 million, and understated its net income by $1.8 million, or $0.07 per share. Therefore, the Company has today filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission an amendment to its Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 which contains its restated financial statements for that period. The restated financial statements for the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 reflect that the fair market value of its Windset investment has been increased by $2.9 million and net income by $1.8 million, net of related income taxes of $1.1 million. As a result, earnings per share for the first quarter of fiscal year 2013 have increased to $0.17 per share from the previously reported $0.10 per share.
Gary Steele, Landec's Chairman and CEO, commented, "As reported today in the Second Quarter and First Half Fiscal Year Earnings Release for fiscal year 2013, Landec's share of the increase in Windset's fair market value for fiscal year 2013 is projected to be $6.5 million, up from $5.8 million recognized in fiscal year 2012, and up from $6.0 million previously estimated by Landec for fiscal year 2013 before the new appraisal was completed by our outside independent appraiser. It was determined during the second quarter review of the appraisal that the Company incorrectly recorded the fair market value of Windset at the end of its first quarter of fiscal year 2013. As a result, $2.9 million of the annual fair market value that the Company had originally planned to record in its second and third fiscal quarters should have been recorded during its first fiscal quarter of fiscal year 2013. The Company has updated its policies and controls surrounding its accounting for the change in the fair market value of Windset to ensure that in the future such changes are recorded properly each quarter."

Pike County Alcohol Ban on Certain Streams
The Pike County Board of Supervisors should approve a ban on alcohol possession on certain streams in Pike County, including those stretches on the Bogue Chitto River from Holmesville to the Bogue Chitto Water Park, and Topisaw Creek from Leatherwood Road to the Bogue Chitto River. I believe this will result in a more family friendly environment on these waterways and will make Pike County a better place to live and raise a family.

Windows 7 only offering low quality Default Format audio settings!
Hi guys,
For some reason, my Windows 7 is only offering two types of Default Format for my USB Audio Device driver; Telephone quality and Tape Recorder quality. Obviously both of these are shockingly bad. The thing that makes it worse is that I have just brought a brand new USB Desktop Microphone (Logitech USB Desktop Microphone) and windows is only offering the same settings as my old Webcam Microphone (And it sounds just as bad). There is one thing I am confused about though: In this video; Logitech USB Desktop Microphone working on Windows 7 64bit - YouTube The guy is using Windows 7 64-bit (same as me) BUT he has the option to increase the audio quality to DVD quality. It's the same exact Microphone, same windows and appears to be the same driver. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit so it should include all of the drivers, yes? Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Logitech doesn't offer any drivers and the guy in the video mysteriously has the same driver but has more options than me. The microphone is just as useless with loud echos and the like as my old Webcam Microphone. Thanks for your answers |

I couldn't find anything particular on forums.logitech.com other than one guy complaining about the quality of the playback sound. His post was in 2008 and nobody replied.
Standard trick to reset a driver is: go into Device Manger. Find the device. Right click on it and choose Remove. Reboot. When Windows comes up again it will reinstall the driver. It works a high percentage of the time. But there's no guarantee. Might be a good idea to make a Restore Point first if you use them. Just to make sure you don't lose ground. |

I can't believe this; Windows decided to switch around the names of my Webcam Microphone (Originally 3- USB Audio Device which I disabled) and the new Microphone, so I was actually looking at the options for my old microphone lol!
Thanks for your help anyway |

So, I was looking through the regs to see specifically what is written for searun cutts in the sound. I see them listed as C&R only in all marine areas, and I see that for all species in MA 5-13, barbless hooks are required. What I don't see is a reg for single hooks only (expect for when fishing salmon in MA 1-13), and I don't see a reg for artificial lures only. I've heard people say that beach fishing for cutts is artificial, single hooks, barbless only, but don't see this in the regs. Since I haven't had a chance to meet with my attorney, financial planner, psychiatrist, and priest yet to help me understand the regs, I'm wondering if I'm just missing something? Not that it matters to me, cause this is how I will fish them anyway, but I have seen a few people out on beaches fishing bait, and I want to have my facts straight so I can educate them or call the hotline if that fails.
A person could fish for cutts using bait, since it is legal to do so. I'm not aware of any regulation that requires you to use artifical lures. I can't remember the last time I ran into anyone using bait specifically to target searun cutthroat. I'm sure folks still do at times. The last time I did it was in the late 70's trolling firecracker herring before my flyfishing days started. Before "educating" anyone using bait and especially herring, you should be aware that lots of people target salmon off the beaches with herring. It is effective and legal way to target salmon both under a float or casting and retrieving using two single barbless hooks on a mooching leader. There are several beaches I can think of were I wouldn't recommend trying to be the educator, otherwise you might encounter some unruly students.
Fortunately they would be limited to catching and mangling, i mean releasing, two cutts if they were law abiding bait fisherman since any fish caught with bait must be counted as part of the limit whether or not they were released.
Haha, yes, I know to pick my audience wisely! Thanks for the clarification. For some reason I had heard from several folks offhandedly that cutt fishing was artificial only. Could one also use treble hooks to fish for cutts? I guess you'd have a hard time convincing the warden that your spinner is aimed only at the cutts and not at the salmon.
Pat, I don't think that rule applies when fishing bait in the salt. I've never seen that rule in the reg book unter the MA areas. If I'm incorrect, please tell me where I might find it. I believe that rule only applies towards your trout limit when fishing with bait in freshwater streams and lakes. You'd hope they'd quit fishing after mangling a couple cutts in the salt, but I doubt most would. I've lived here my entire life and find the regulations more unclear with each passing year. SF
Pat, I don't see that listed. All I see is where it says that when fishing for salmon, only single point hooks are allowed (page 98), and that MA 5-13 is all barbless (page 98). Am I missing that? Ya, understanding the regs has become a sport in itself.
I could be wrong on that, I know it is at least a freshwater rule. It should apply to all waters if it doesn't already.
well targeting salmon or cutts in the salt is barbless single point, I thought we were talking about that. Since rockfish is closed and lings are a very short window, I guess I wasnt thinking or caring about that part. Since you have a copy of the regs and or can acess them online you should be able to flip through and find exactly what youre looking for. But for most species and fishing situations in the puget sound you would not be allowed to use a treble.
I don't think targeting cutts requires single barbless, only salmon does. Not trying to be argumentative, just curious, and I think it's important info for people to have. I'm sure there are others out there as confused as I am.
Actually, after looking through the regs again, it technically does not say that targeting cutts has to be single point, weird right? One would think that a protected fish would have that kind of regulation. On a side note if anyone remembers the good ol octopus thread from a while back you might find this quote from the regs interesting You May Not: Fish for salmon , sturgeon , octopus , or Crab in saltwater with underwater spearfishing gear. http://www.washingtonflyfishing.com...iant-pacific-octopus.83407/page-2#post-777398
FiF, When in doudt about a regulation, you can always call or email WDFW with your question. Hopefully whoever replies has a full grasp on the regs themselves.......because even they don't always know the immediate answer and have to research it. SF
I know, right? At least they're still protected by C&R. That is a huge step itself. I think I've finally got it all straight in my head. One weekend's worth of microbrews will probably wash it all away, though.
Correct. Only applies to freshwater, per page 17 for trout. In lakes, ponds, and reservoirs: No min. size. Daily limit 5. When fishing with bait, all TROUT (except STEELHEAD) equal to or greater than the minimum size are counted as part of the daily limit whether kept or released
I use trebles sometimes when targeting trout, using spinners, in planted lakes where there is no selective gear rule in effect. The prohibition on trebles in freshwater typically occurs in rivers where selective gear rules and/or the anti-snagging rules are in effect. But in many rivers, the anti snagging rule goes out of effect on December 1 when hatchery steelhead are running, in which case pretty much the whole kitchen sink of tackle becomes legal.
Correct regarding "salmon". Per page 98: When fishing for SALMON in Marine Areas 1-13, only single-point barbless hooks may be used.
If you are fishing in a marine area for sea runs, during an open salmon season there, you will likely get screwed legally if you are caught by a Game Warden when you are using trebles in that saltwater area- no matter what rod or leader etc., you are using. Another issue here is that these fish "are to be released without avoidable injury", and trebles are notoriously injurious to fish, even if barbless. We have no significant trouble keeping cutthroat, salmon or steelhead on single barbless hook flies while playing them. It helps to know how to play fish. http://olympicpeninsulaflyfishing.blogspot.com
There seems to be a change from earlier years. It used to say, "all species, single barbless hook." Now the regs say, "Barbless hooks are required for all species in Marine areas 5-13, except forage fish jig gear." That would indicate that you could use a double or treble hook for fish other than salmon. But why would you? If you are fishing for bullheads you could use a treble I guess but anything else could cause problems if you accidently hooked a salmon using bait or lure.
Steve - On page 10 of the fishing rule pamphlet "Forage Fish Jig Gear" is defined as - "Jig gearmay have up to three treble hooks or nine single-point hook, not to exceed 3/8" between point and shank. May only be used for forage fish or squid." Further Forage Fish is defined as - "Includes anchovy, sand lance, herring, sardine, and smelt." I don't recall that being a change though it may have been re-worded to make things "clearer". Curt
I am aware of what forage fish and gear is . The point was that the regs used to say, "all species, single barbless hooks." That would have included bullhead, flounder, sea bass, salmon, etc. They have revised it a bit.

Reduced Glutathione Sublingual Complex contains glutathione (GSH), a key element of the liver's detoxifying process and also the precursor for glutathione peroxidase, a major free radical scavenging enzyme. Recent scientific research indicates that molybdenum, a trace mineral that activates the enzymes aldehyde oxidase and sulfite oxidase, may provide necessary nutritional support for chemically sensitive individuals. Coenzymated vitamin B-2 (riboflavin) is the precursor for FAD, a coenzyme that recycles used GSH. The sublingual form is absorbed directly into the blood stream, via the blood vessels under the tongue and in the cheeks, allowing for quick entry into the system.

• 1 tbsp. fresh rosemary leaves, chopped
• 1 tsp. paprika
• 1/2 c. dry white wine
• 1 tsp. fine salt
• 8 oz. gluten-free macaroni or penne
• 2 c. cauliflower florets
• 1/2 c. frozen peas, thawed
• 1/2 c. gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed rice square cereal
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Lightly oil a 2-quart baking dish. Bring a large pot of salted water to boil for the pasta.
Drain the soaked cashews and put them in a blender or food processor. Grind them as finely as possible, adding 2 cups water gradually until they are a smooth purée. Add the squash and process until very smooth.
In a large sauté pan, heat the oil over medium-high heat and add the onion. Reduce the heat to medium and sauté until golden, at least 5 minutes. Add the garlic, rosemary and paprika, and stir until fragrant. Add the wine and salt and bring to a boil, then add the cashew mixture, whisking to combine. Bring to a simmer, then remove from the heat. It will be creamy but not really thick.
Cook the pasta in the boiling water for 5 minutes. Put the cauliflower and peas in a colander and drain the pasta over them. Add the pasta and veggies to the sauce in the sauté pan and stir to coat.
Transfer to the baking dish and smooth the top. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes, then uncover, sprinkle with the breadcrumbs, and bake for 10 minutes more, or until the top is golden brown and it's bubbling around the edges. Serve hot.
