My Lucky Bass

The incident that I'm about to describe happened when I was ten years old, yet I remember it like it was yesterday because it was such a remarkable event. I used to do most of my fishing as a child on Lake Oswego, near Portland, Oregon.





My grandparents lived on the lake because my grandfather loved to fish and drive his boat. My brother and I would swim and pilot the rowboat or even drive the motorboat. If we got tired of everthing else, we would ask our grandfather to get out the fishing equipment. Most of the time we would catch Perch and once in a while we would catch a Blue Gale. At night; we would occasionally catch a catfish that was cruising along the seawall.





These days you have to be a multi-millionaire to afford to live on the lake, but back in the 50's and 60's it was mostly blue collar people who were like my grandfather and for one reason or another wanted to live on the water.





After we would swim for awhile, it was time for a rest, so our grandfather would get out his fishing equipment. My brother and I usually fished with a worm and a bobber. This involved sitting around and waiting, so it got boring real fast. Our grandfather would be forced to break out the casting rods.







My brother and I loved to cast. We never really thought that we would catch any fish because the triple hooks were just dangling from the lures with no worms to hide them. We both thought that you had to use worms if you wanted to catch fish.





The lures that my grandfather had were made for bass, were three to five inches long and were all made out of wood, so they were pretty heavy. This heft combined with the way we cast, (we held the rods like baseball bats, then swung them overhand letting go of the line when the tip of the rod was at its highest point) allowed us to launch the lures 30 yards out into the lake. Casting was usally one of the highlights of the day. To my brother and I, casting was nearly as good a time as throwing rocks!





One day while I was casting, there was an extra big splash as my lure hit the water. I can still see that splash in my minds eye even though it happened over 40 years ago. As soon as the splash subsided, I realized that something was resisting as I tried to real in my line.







What had most likely happened was that the lure had landed right above the bass. The bass must have instinctively struck at the lure. The lure did its' job of hooking the bass and I reeled him in. I was completely caught off guard. He actually broke water a couple of times as I reeled him in, but what seemed like forever to me, was probably just a couple of minutes.





My grandfather ran into his basement and looked around until he found his fish scale, so he could weigh my bass. It came out to one and a half pounds. Surely, I thought, this can't be right. I thought that it would be 40 or 50 pounds at least, but my grandfather assured me that one and half pounds was big for that lake.





That was the only time that I have ever caught a bass in that manner, but the experience taught me to always expect the unexpected while you are fishing.

Anti-Aging with Carnosine

What is Anti Aging Carnosine? To be frank not much is known about this dipeptide right know. Carnosine has already been given the nickname the anti-aging dipeptide as it has shown some positive anti-oxident properties. Carnosine is a water-soluble free radical scavenger. Found mainly in muscle tissue and the brain, there have been signs that it has delayed senescence which is a cell's loss of ability to divide. In fact an Australian study showed that carnosine could increase the Hayflick limit by close to 20%.





Anti aging Carnosine, studied for a hundred years already remains aloof. There have been small studies that demonstrate all types of wonderful attributes from being a powerful anti-oxident to having membrane protecting properties as well as being a neurotransmitter. Some studies are going so far as to say that anti aging carnosine has the potential to be helpful in Autism and Alzheimers disease.





There have been many animal related test with anti aging carnosine and the effects it has on cataracts. Dogs have been treated with carnosine and have shown positive results.





Carnosine is available at most health supplement stores and no serious side effects, when taken at the proper dosage, have been noticed.





Now would I start taking anti aging carnosine? When I started this post my initial reaction is that I would stay clear of anything I didn't fully understand but after reading many articles on the topic it seems as though the anti oxidant properties and cellular effects are impressive. I may not rush out to but some but I will definitely be investigating the anti aging carnosine supplement more.
